Basic Information from Blizzard regarding Warlocks: 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 magic from beyond the world. The Burning Legion now feeds them its powers, allowing them to channel destructive energies and call upon the powerful emissaries of their demon masters. The Warlock is a more involved class to play. Warlocks have pets, many different spell combos, and a reagent component requirement for some of their spells. This means that playing a Warlock takes a bit more learning than some of the more straightforward classes. The Warlock has a lot of very cool and fun abilities including Eye of Killrogg, Fear, Pets, and more. The Warlock is a very fun class to play once you figure things out.

Valid Races: Human, Orc, Undead, Gnome, Blood Elf

The TenTonHammer take on Warlocks

The Warlock is the master of "Crowd Control" able to cast some furious spells while having his minions deal with enemy threats. Imagine having the benefits of the fighter meat shield teamed with that of a mage. The warlock can site back while his "pet" engages in combat, and he can send in a literal barrage of magic against his foes.
