How do you roleplay as a warlock?

Simple question for the people who roleplay as a warlock. How do you do it? Do you stick to your warlock’s opportunistic rules? Do you put your demon away when you enter capital cities?

I generally in game am immersed in my warlock character and am usually roleplaying at all times. But I’m curious how others portray their warlocks?

Shang Tsung is the only legitimate inspiration for a warlock.

Though I’ve never gotten far with the Warlock characters I’ve made, I’ve long been fond of the more scholarly side of them; those who become Warlocks in interest of learning more about demons and/or fel magic. Many of the qualities I once wrote for Warlock characters are currently used in my Demon Hunters nowadays, as I personally find that class more appealing, but I digress.

I tend to portray a more gul’dan psyche with my warlock. The opportunistic highly motivated type of warlock who thirsts for power. I have the tendency to kill the warlock trainers in goldshire so that they can’t train more warlocks.

I"m still new to roleplay though and trying to figure out how to write a profile well with my total rp 3 addon. I know how to make the profile I just don’t now how to write my warlock’s story in it and make it look like a good story.

I roleplay my warlock as a disgruntled, former Kiran Tor. He was an ok mage and was picked on by his KT peers. Fed up with not being powerful enough to impress them, and fed up with their bullying, he started studying Shadow Magic. He understands the usefulness of fel but for the most part is not a big fan. His favorite spells are shadow and the demons he summons have become his closest, and only, friends. Always on the lookout for more knowledge, he has recently taken to exploration and delves. Other explorers find him to be weird and don’t generally have any relationships with him outside of professional transactions.

Always put your demons away. I have a separate talent set up that I use for RP (without Inner Demons spawning Imps.)

Dude I’m going to steal this and base a backstory on a similar concept! This is awesome!
