A "warlock" is often seen as a male sorcerer or wizard, typically associated with dark magic or forbidden knowledge. While sometimes used interchangeably with "wizard," it often carries a negative connotation. Think of a character who made a deal with a demon for power. They are distinct from benevolent wizards by their motives and the source of their magic. Warlocks might seek power at any cost, unlike a traditional mage who adheres to a moral code. The term evokes mystery, danger, and the allure of forbidden arts.
