Grayroad is a powerful mutated Grey Demon of the Demon Clan who was gifted the commandment of Pacifism by the Demon King. She is the infiltration expert, demon creating machine, and debuffer of her foes with curses. Grayroad is known for her cruelty towards humans, taking great pleasure in turning them into more demons for the Demon Clan’s army.

Class Warlock 3 (The Great Old One)/Paladin 3 (Oath of Redemption)
The three things that I wanted to achieve in this build are:
- Shapechanging prowess.
- Power of Pacifism.
- Hampered By Curses.
Background
For Background, I chose Charlatan for her. She gains the skills Sleight of Hand, History, Tool Proficiencies of Disguise Kit and Forgery Kit with the Background Feature of False Identity.
Race
For the race, I chose Changeling since she has the ability to change her form at will. With this race, you get +2 to Cha, +1 to Con, Shapechanger, the skills of Deception and Insight, and the languages of Infernal and Celestial.
Class
Grayroad’s class breakdown is a combination of two classes, Warlock 3(The Great Old One)/Paladin 3(Oath of Redemption). It is with these classes that she gains the ability telepathically communicate to anyone near her, create (summon) more demons, punish anyone who inflicts violence, and inflict curses on her foes. This combination of classes is the best attempt to consolidate his abilities and talents at this level.
Warlock 1 (The Great Old One) is the beginning level for Grayroad’s build. With this level, she gains Investigation, Arcana, Pact Magic, Expanded Spell List, and Awakened Mind. Awakened Mind allows her to speak to any creature within 30 feet of her.
Warlock 2 is where she picks the Eldritch Invocations of Armor of Shadows and Thief of Five Fates. Now she can increase her AC with a mage armor that coats you in shadow and the ability to cast the spell Bane.
Warlock 3 is where she picks up 2nd Level spells and the Pact Boon of Pact of the Chain. With Pact of the Chain, she can now summon a Demon familiar aka create a demon.
From there I would mix in the Warlock levels with the Paladin levels.
Paladin 1 gives Grayroad the abilities of Divine Sense, Lay on Hands, and the Fighting Style-Blind Fighting.
Paladin 2 is where she picks Spellcasting and Divine Smite.
Paladin 3 is the final level for Grayroad’s build with the Sacred Oath of Redemption, Oath Spells, and Channel Divinity. The key power for this level is her Channel Divinity feature. With this feature, she gains Emissary of Peace and Rebuke the Violent. Rebuke the Violent is where she can punish anyone she chooses with 30 if they attack a creature other than her as a reaction. On a failed Wis save they take radiant damage equal to the damage they just dealt.
With full use of Grayroad’s powers she can perform the following techniques via spells and abilities:
Shapeshifting- Shapechanger Changeling ability
Curse
- Binding Resentment Chains- Hold Person Spell
- Five Lost- Phantasmal Force Spell
- Breakable Bug- Infestation Spell
Commandment of Pacifism- Rebuke the Violent Channel Divinity
This combination of feats, stats, and spells makes this DND build of Grayroad the Pacifism a mollifying force against her foes in Six levels or Less.
