August 3, 201411 yr http://io9.com/the-24-most-embarrassing-dungeons-dragons-character-1524448977 My favourite? 'Beggar' - must be chaotic and take cold resistance trait. Blew claret through my nose.
August 3, 201411 yr There are a few here that I got a chuckle out of: 16) Ghetto Fighter NO. JUST NO. Another completely insane and needless Dwarf specialty class, which included the following lines in its description:" The Ghetto Fighter never forgets his lowly origins and may harbor resentments against dwarves who are better off. However, he stays true to his roots, and will try to better the lives of ghetto children." An O.G. Representin' in the 'hood. lol 24) Urban Druid These members of this 3.5 edition class celebrate nature by… staying as far as hell away from it as possible. Hell, at least the Arctic Druids may occasionally encounter a penguin or something. Clearly this is just a cheat to let players have Druid powers while ignoring everything else about Druids, which I'm kind of down with in principle, but even just typing it sounds completely obnoxious. These guys are the hipsters of the Druid world. "Yeah, I liked nature all right, but then all these other Druids moved out and ruined everything, So I've come to the city to get my head together. Maybe start a band or something." In other words, Hippies. The 1960s Woodstock type. Edited August 3, 201411 yr by Stun
August 4, 201411 yr PALADIN OF SLAUGHTER The only art character I recognize there, is Wulfgar, the "barbarian fighter," from Salvatore's original Forgotten Realms books. Crazy how some artists are still to this day, instantly recognizable, Elmore and Caldwell. Jeff Easley was the other period master, and Keith Parkinson, god rest him. All Stop. On Screen.
August 6, 201411 yr Meh, about half of them are basically WFRP classes. Also, someone who thinks a druid has no place in arctic or urban environments clearly knows jack about biology. "Lulz is not the highest aspiration of art and mankind, no matter what the Encyclopedia Dramatica says."
August 6, 201411 yr Author Also, someone who thinks a druid has no place in arctic or urban environments clearly knows jack about biology. Epic Tru-Gaemer response!!!
August 8, 201411 yr I do believe the Beggar class may well have been born from Mr Gygax' novel "Saga of Old City." Gord the Rogue was scraped up off the streets to train under Beggarmaster Theobald, as well as practising acrobatics and such. As I remember the Beggarmaster grew prideful however and his guild was destroyed by the thieves. Quite an experience to live in misery isn't it? That's what it is to be married with children.I've seen things you people can't even imagine. Pearly Kings glittering on the Elephant and Castle, Morris Men dancing 'til the last light of midsummer. I watched Druid fires burning in the ruins of Stonehenge, and Yorkshiremen gurning for prizes. All these things will be lost in time, like alopecia on a skinhead. Time for tiffin. Tea for the teapot!
August 8, 201411 yr I remember the Mine Rowdy. Wish I knew there was a clown class, though. But I never got the FR supplements. I cannot - yet I must. How do you calculate that? At what point on the graph do "must" and "cannot" meet? Yet I must - but I cannot! ~ Ro-Man
August 10, 201411 yr Only ten days until 5E Player's Handbook comes out. Don't know if I'll get to play, so much, but reading will be fun. All Stop. On Screen.
