What Class Would Your Character Play?

Post by Cthuletta »

Image

This made me laugh and I know it's not the first time this joke has been tossed around.

So I'm curious- if your character had to play D&D, what class would they choose?

For example-
Juniper the Druid would probably play a Half-Orc Barbarian just to use an axe and rage at things since she has the strength of an overcooked noodle otherwise.

Dahlia Thistlepot - Epic Weapon Focus: Sandal
Juniper Oakley - Exploring the World
Tiffa Took Hss'tafi - Happy in Sigil
Among Many Others!

Solveigh would play a pure fighter, because she did not handle complicated things well and got overwhelmed easily. Swing sword = dead enemy = great.

"Anna" would play a bard. She would also be any table's nightmare because she would be an extremely hot bard who should (in Anna's opinion) win every Persuasion role by default, and she'd probably not be asked back to the second session.

Ninim would play the most bog-standard paladin you could imagine.

Maethiel would play a barbarian. Extremely poorly.

Ynge would just refuse to play, mutter about "young folk these days", and give everyone snacks.

Rolled: Solveigh Arnimayne, "Anna Locksley"
Shelved: Maethiel Tyireale'ala, Lalaith Durothil
Current: Ynge Redbeard, ???

V would play a paladin, because in the scope of a 5e game, it lets her be a powergamer.

Minto would go for a halfling rogue/moon druid/trickster cleric mangled multiclass because he'd be indecisive and want to play a follower of Brandobaris who could also shapeshift because he never learned to do that growing up.

Then he'd settle on a halfling divine soul sorcerer and be a blessed of Brandobaris that was very lucky.

Well, Ner would crack out the "Savage Species" book and plead with the DM to be able to play a dragon.

Valeria would scoff at the invitation and say she doesn't play that nerd stuff, then go out and smoke while the kids have fun.

Impei would play a half-orc barbarian and invest only in strength to live out the deranged power fantasy of having carrying capacity.

Ester would play a goblin rogue. I don't need to explain that one.

Ryana would be a human paladin. For the woman she wishes she could be.

Winifred Rhoswen: "He said good things. Even said ye weren't a Paladin when I asked!"
Ryana: "Not a paladin." I'll take that as a compliment.

Gwenno would play a Paladin and make everyone else uncomfortable as she works out her personal issues at the table.

Unless it’s a SpellJammer campaign, then she’ll play herself and just indulge in the fantasy.

Xebek: Shelved.
Gwenllian Auburnridge: Rolled. Managing the family shipyard in Waterdeep.
Cheryl Garrio:
Rolled. Slain and lost, bones and all.
