The Card Slinger: Warlock | A Card for every occasion [2024 5e Dungeons and Dragons Character Build]

Hello Adventurers!

Welcome back to another episode of Rules as Written Character Builds,

For last week’s roll we had a 2, meaning this week we are crafting a 2nd level character build.

Don’t forget to watch until the end of the video so see next week’s level!

And we are going off a a recommendation by a channel viewer, @georgevainglory9620

George recommended a card throwing character build, along the lines of Gambit from Marvel Comics.

I loved the concept, and thought it perfectly fit as a 2nd level character build.

To achieve this aesthetic we are combing two instances of the magic initiate feat, and the Warlock’s Pact of the Tome Eldritch Invocation, to acquire ourselves a whole mess of cantrips.

We flavor the casting of our spells as cards that we draw and throw from our deck.

We’ll have elemental options like Firebolt and Frostbite, debuffs like Bane, defensive options like Bladedward, and even a social option in Friends.

And for our main damage we’ll of course be using Eldritch Blast, as well as Booming Blade for melee. And we’ll be adding the Agonizing Blast Eldritch Invocation to both of these for improved damage.

Let me know what you think of the Card Slinger, and as always come back every week for another original character build.

Thank’s again, and I’ll see y’all next week!
