The Warlock Class is available to these Races.
Human, Orc, Undead, and Gnome
Blizzard's Class Description:
"Warlocks were mages that delved too deeply into the roots of demonic power. Consumed by a lust for dark knowledge, they've tapped into chaotic magics from beyond the world. The Burning Legion now feeds them their powers, allowing them to channel destructive energies and call upon the powerful emissaries of their demon masters." Blizzard
Shadows Edge Class Description:
The Warlock is the master of demons, using dark demonic magic, who has his own category of demons to tame, including succubi, felhunters, imps, infernals, and void walkers. All pets level up with their master and retains his name and comes when called. A Hunter can only tame a new pet when he permanently abandons his current pet. The pet can only level to 90% of the Hunter's current skill level.
Class Skills
The Warlock is a hardcore magic user, he will not function as a melee combat character and it's essential he makes the most of his special class skills to supplement his dark magical abilities.
