3E Witches and Warlocks

Post by LouisVendredi »

Could anyone point me to 3E stats for the Witch and/or Warlock character class for 3E (including Weave spells). I am aware of the Witch PrC, but is there a resource for creating a non-prestige Witch character?

Thanks all.

I don't think there's a core class for Halan Witches. :?

The typical Halan witch is a cleric/sorcerer (or favored soul/sorcerer, if you prefer), while the typical warlock is a cleric/wizard...
In Van Richten Arsenal there's an extremely powerful PrC, the Hallowed Witch.
The class, strangely enough, proves quite balanced (it did in my game...). :shock:

Ok. Well then my NPC Witch is on the right track as she's a 4th level Sorceress who just took a level of Cleric after meeting with a coven of Halan witches.

Thanks all.

A Witch/Warlock class <I>would</I> be a cool idea though.

Go here for a well-balanced witch class for 3rd Edition D&D (free download pdf). It is a pretty well-balanced class that is easily adaptable to Halan witches, and has spells, feats, a few prcs, etc.

Just found that and downloaded it after a bit of searching. Thanks. I'm not sure if I want to use the download, keep it as a multi-class or make something up on my own.

What I've really been hoping for is something like the Witch/Warlock section from VRGtH, but for 3E and with actual Class info.

Be careful about warlocks: they're detailed as arcane spell-like casters in "Complete Arcane."

There's always the witch class from the DMG. Or even better the revised witch on Dicefreaks (also with a revised spell list)

The vast majority of Halan spellcasters are probably adepts, IMHO.

While the majority of the clergy (as with all the religions of Ravenloft) is composed of experts.
