Hey all, thinking about Warlocks made me wonder about this. I can picture someone that wants to use magic but doesn't have enough talent making a bargain to become a warlock, whatever creature he implores. But can someone that is cut off from becoming a sorcerer or wizard still become a Warlock, since they are essentially chanelling something elses power as their own? For example, Karsites, from the Tome of Magic are not allowed to become spell casters, because of their tie to Karsus, but can become binders. Would they be able to be Warlocks?

Just wondering what the prevailing opinions are out there. Thanks for your time.

I just it depends in part what version you are using. This version: http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/cwc/20050630a indicates an inate ability to cast magic because of the evil gene.
quote:
The warlock's dark heritage gives him a limited array of useful powers. Most warlocks carry at least a small taint of evil


Cha is a casting prime ability, the same as becoming a Sor. I do not see how the rules prevent even evil gene charaters taking Wiz or Sor (without reading the 3.X Tome of Magic) but selecting a deity might of course do this.
