This is a Warlock otherworldly patron for 5A.

Your patron is a demon lord, a creature of vast power that lusts for the souls of intelligent creatures—sent not in meek submission but through violence. The demon lord himself can be a named creature, or you can have a bond with the Abyss itself or some creature who's identity is unknown to you. Once forged, this bond is unbreakable. Regardless of what you do, your soul is damned and your powers are yours to command—an angry patron can work against you, but cannot take your powers. The best you can hope for is to leave a legacy to the world.

Many demonblades are accomplished warriors, but their focus on physical combat often makes them less able to cast offensive spells. Instead, they use their spells to call for aid, usually supernatural creatures to fight for them.
