That "can" is what made me write this post in the first place. ;-)

I think that I will rule that is always active.

The problem is that my players are about to get into a gigantic castle full of undead, and I'm afraid that the expensive scarab will last 5 minutes in such environment...

Its description says it can absorb 12 death effects, energy drain or negative energy attacks.

Can you choose which effects does it absorb? Or does it work with every attack of that kind that harms you?

Does it work when you are attacked or after you fail your saving throw?

A Few things I would like seen done please.

1. First and fore most, Errata and clarifications on the class and its abilities.

2. New Invocations and/or rules on creating them.

3. New Warlock PrC's maybe like the Arch-Warlock, or something to allow the to transform into an outsider (like Dragon Disciple) or how they could maybe become a lich.

There`s already a prestige class in "the complete arcane" to transform a warlock into an outsider: the Skin Acolite (or something like that).

The illustration even shows Morthos (the sample warlock) as somekind of horned demon.

The errata has been published too. Look for it in the WotC web site. There you will also find a message board about warlocks, answered by Richard Baker himself ("The Complete Arcane" creator).

Read it if you are going to play a Warlock, as it changes a lot of things, including the level to quicken/empower your eldritch blast.
