Pact Knight
The patrons of the multiverse often make pacts with mortal beings in exchange for their will being enacted on the planes. They grant power, magic, and knowledge to those that they make pacts with. The beings these patrons make deals with are known as warlocks. Sometimes, however, the less magically inclined will find themselves at a table, with a contract in front of them, and sign anyway, regardless of their lack of arcane ability. These pact empowered brutes are known as Pact Knights. Pact knights use their patron's magic on the front lines of battle, fighting as a martial champion of their patron, and as a force of strength amongst their servants that dwell among the material.
