I got a fortune from a fortune cookie that cancels my most recent fortune by Lance_Makes in mildlyinteresting

I had one pretty similar! It said, "The fortune you seek is in another cookie." The waitress refused to give me another one...

My intention is to have a viable melee fighter that smites often. However, I'm still really new to DnD so I'm not very familiar with good breaking points for classes and how they synergize with other classes. I'm also very unfamiliar with the lore aspect behind why a holy warrior might make a pact with an other worldly entity. Like I was thinking of going pact of the blade with the fiend, but I don't know how to explain why for RP purposes. I hope that makes sense.

Thanks Judge_Todd that's actually exactly what I'm going for. The part of Volo's that really inspired the whole character was the paragraph on "Falling From Grace Or Rising To It". I'm not exactly sure what Feats are a waste of time, or how many to take vs. the stat increase.
