What type of caster is a warlock?

A Warlock in Dungeons & Dragons is typically considered an Arcane Caster that uses Charisma as their spellcasting ability, but they have a unique "Pact Magic" system with fewer, higher-level spell slots that refresh on a short rest, making them a hybrid or "pseudo-full caster" rather than a traditional full caster like a Wizard or Sorcerer, relying heavily on invocations and cantrips like Eldritch Blast to supplement their powerful, but limited, spellcasting.
