The Hexblade

The Hexblade, those pacted with blades from the Shadowfell. First created by the Raven Queen, blades of this nature are the patron themselves. They are usually semi-sentient, their personalities entirely up to their creators. Though they were originally created by the Raven Queen, Hexblades can come from any Shadowfell creature powerful enough to create them. This can include Shadow Dragons, Shades, and other powerful Shadowfell creatures. Though they differ blade to blade, their intentions often are malicious and of an evil nature. Though similar to warlocks with a pact of the blade, Hexblades differ in the fact that the pact is made to the blade itself and not its creator.
