I didn't become the Blade of Frontiers overnight.— Wyll motivating children.
Gameplay
As a Warlock of The Fiend subclass, Wyll gains access to powerful destructive Spells as he levels up. He gains fewer Spell Slots per day than traditional spellcasters, but in exchange, he regains use of them on a Short Rest and his spells are always cast at the highest level possible, making even his low level spells quite potent.
Wyll can use his versatile Eldritch Blast cantrip and Eldritch Invocations to help fill the gaps created by his limited spell slots.

Recruitment
Wyll can be recruited in Act One.
- Wyll is first encountered when approaching the Druid Grove in the Wilderness. On approach, Goblins will attack the grove and Wyll will participate in the battle, announcing himself as the Blade of Frontiers, and defending the grove. Afterwards, he can be found in the The Hollow training Tiefling children to fight. If the player speaks with him there and agrees to join forces with him, he will join the party.
- If you complete the Druid's Grove quest, Wyll cannot be found within The Hollow. He will appear after recruiting Karlach and completing the quest at The Risen Road, upon taking a long rest.
Background
At a young age, Wyll stumbled across a dark ritual that would bring a great evil into Faerûn if left unchecked. With little time left, Wyll felt left without a choice and he signed and accepted the deal of an opportunistic devil, Mizora, who arrived at the scene to offer Wyll power. With his new powers as a Warlock, Wyll was able to stop the ritual, but was wounded and lost his right eye in the ensuing battle.
Bound by pact to serve Mizora, Wyll's dealings with the devil left him estranged from his influential noble family in Baldur's Gate. He left his home and gained fame as The Blade of Frontiers, renowned for his swordsmanship and monster-slaying.
Now Wyll is on the hunt for Karlach, the latest target his patron Mizora has demanded he kill for her. He must obey, or suffer great consequences. The hunt has taken to Wyll to Avernus, in the Hells themselves.

Wyll's Pact
During the course of the story, you can learn some of the clauses of Wyll's pact with Mizora.
Clause F § 9: 'Soul-binder shall bestow reward or favour only upon soul-bearer's fulfillment of related obligation.'
Clause G § 9: 'Targets shall be limited to the infernal, the demonic, the heartless, and the soulless.'
Clause Z § 13: 'Should the promised soul refuse obeyance or neglect duty, the pact-holder shall cast the promised in Avernus as a lemure.'
Clause Z § 13: 'If the soul-binder consents to separation, she will release the soul-bearer from all obligation within six months.'
Personal Quest
Wyll's Companion Quest is: The Blade of Frontiers
Personality
Wyll actively seeks to do the right thing and live up to his ideal vision of a hero, even if at times he considers himself undeserving of the title. When few options remain, Wyll is willing to resort to brutal methods if in his eyes the ends justify the means. He is desperate to free himself from the shame of his past and be recognized as something greater. Because of this, his deeds can at times appear reckless. He enjoys his title as the Blade of Frontiers even though he regrets what it cost him to obtain it.
