Warlocks are arcane-style casters with usually lower damage but unlimited castings of their invocations. They don't know many however.

Warlocks are born of a supernatural bloodline, and seeks to master the perilous magic that suffuses his soul. Unlike sorcerers or wizards, who approach arcane magic through the medium of spells, a warlock invokes powerful magic through nothing more than an effort of will. By harnessing his innate magical gift through fearsome determination and force of will, a warlock can perform feats of supernatural stealth, beguile the weak-minded, or scour his foes with blasts of eldritch power. A warlock serves much the same role in an adventuring party as a sorcerer or wizard would. He is much more limited in his abilities compared to the spell selection of spellcasters, and he must rely on his eldritch blast in place of the spell power of an arcane caster. Like a bard, he often fits best in a party that already has another spellcaster or two, since his unique abilities provide him with little magic to use for his companions' benefit.
WARNING: To cast a invocation, a warlock must have a Charisma score of 10 + the spell's level. For example, to cast a 3th-level invocation, a warlock must have a Intelligence of 13.

Warlock Invocations
This list is being reviewed. Many won't be added.
These are split up by level (least/lesser/greater/dark) and also noted if they are Eldritch Essence that modifies Eldritch Blasts effects, or a Eldritch Blast Shape which alters it's properties. Ones marked as Other are their own, separate invocation.

SLE is Spell Level Equivalent. By default the engine treats them as 1/2/3/4 for least/lesser/greater/dark (for the purposes of concentration checks etc.) but the invocation scripts themselves use that spell level for spell immunity and save DC values.

Class requirements for Prestige Classes are only caster level (ie Warlocks level) but not spell level which NWNEE doesn't really support checking except by class levels (or I guess feats if you added them at the right levels).
