    Crafting Warlock Names with Power

    Naming Best Practices

    • Warlock names often change after forming their pact, reflecting their new nature
    • Names might hint at their patron type (Fey, Fiend, Great Old One, etc.)
    • Some warlocks take names given by their patrons or inspired by them
    • Consider incorporating elements of mystery, darkness, or otherworldliness
    • Names might reference the circumstances of their pact or what they sacrificed
    • Many warlocks use titles or epithets rather than traditional names
    • Ancient or archaic-sounding names suggest forbidden knowledge
    • Some warlocks hide their true names to protect against magical manipulation
    • Names might gradually become more alien as the warlock grows in power

    The Power of Warlock Names

    Warlock names carry weight beyond mere identification - they often mark the moment when a mortal touched the infinite. Many warlocks report their names changing spontaneously after forming their pact, as if reality itself acknowledges their transformation. Fiend-pact warlocks might find their names taking on infernal qualities, while those bound to Archfey often develop melodious, ethereal names. Great Old One warlocks sometimes struggle with names that mortal tongues can barely pronounce. In warlock circles, names serve as subtle indicators of patron types and pact depths. Some warlocks collect names like armor, using different ones to shield their true identity from those who might exploit their connection to their patron. The most powerful warlocks often abandon names entirely, becoming known only by titles that invoke fear or awe: The Void-Touched, The Chainbearer, The Seventh Seal.
