character class mix and match

[Ghaleon640]

I'll keep it short and sweet. Character classes, we've seen a lot of them. I want you escapists to help combine them into something that if you saw it in a game you would point to the screen and say, 'What the hell is that?!'

Like a Ninja Berserker. A hidden ninja in the shadows the size of a bear with huge muscles and a giant axe.

But lets face it, there are only so many character classes, and I don't want this to be too strenuous to come up with something new, so feel free to use different fantasy races or different parts of history.

A den of minotaur bards, or goblins running the british navy, which may end up only lasting a week and they resort to using canoes.

It doesn't need to make sense. It doesn't need to be good. Just be creative and have fun. You know what to do.

 

[Cogwheel]

Iron (or stone) golem barbarian wizard.

...What?

 

[tombman888]

PyroSniperSpyScoutDemoman. A Sniper with the ability to sneak around at a scouts pace that shoots flaming arrows and is a demolitions expert.

off topic, Captcha: Fyougu ideas

??? ideas indeed.

 

[Tyrak]

...I've said this in the past, and I will say it here.

Half-Dragon Half-Demon Half-Devil Half-Undead Half-Celestial Ninja Pirate Vampire Cyborg Werewolf Kittens Who Regurgitate Flaming Chainsaws.

See title for description.

 

[Robot n.o 9124791234]

Steampunk-robot-stealthy-barbarian-scientist

 

[GotMalkAvian]

I actually played this character in a D20 Modern campaign:

A Bugbear sorcerer wielding a mace and sawed-off shotgun working as the superintendent for an apartment complex in modern day Chicago. He was a lot of fun.

 

[Brentpool]

What about a mage with a crossbow that specializes in both archery and magic missles?

Yeah, I know it isn't that creative and I'm thinking of various ways that you could make it work as I type this out, but it seems so overly counter-productive and pointless that it couldn't have possibly been done before.

Except in Fable...

Fuck.

 

[Chamale]

I created a scribe character who does nothing but write. No practical skills of any kind, just writes down everything in-character and publishes interesting things in history books.

The kind of character you'd easily murder in DnD, only to be disappointed to find the most valuable thing on his corpse is a non-magical medallion.

I play this character in Live-Action Role-Play.

 

[deleted_by_strongbad]

A benevolent necromantic healer. Think white mage from 8-bit theater, but only for undead. It'd just be fun to see a "villain" in a game who is raising all these zombies and such not for malicious purposes, but to let them "live."

That's actually kinda interesting. Props, man.

 

[Sir Boss]

How about a Bard/Demolitions expert?
give passive buffs to the party while laying down anti-tank mines and lobbing grenades at the grand demon.

 

[The Arc of Eden]

Colonel Mustard in the hallway with the lead pipe... wait, wrong game.



Elven Flaming-Rock hurler. A tiny person hurling boulders with their bare hands... on fire.

Narcoleptic-Schizophrenic-Mage Assassin. In the shadows he lurks, in the shadows he sleeps. But don't wake him, or he'll blow us all to hell.

The Alzheimer's Sphinx: You shall have the treasure if you can answer my 3 riddles... Who are you? Why are you here? What were we talking about?

Fuck.

In DnD, wizards cant use many weapons properly. Crossbows are one of the few they can though. Sorry, but that idea is alot more plausible than you may think.

 

[Saelune]

A barbarian monk. *mind explodes*

 

[Ghaleon640]

A leper cleric. OH NO! HIS LEGS! Now its a backpack that can heal and talk to you. Just strap him on and be on your way.

 

[Hero in a half shell]

You're in the middle of a terrible battle, surrounded by the mayhem of guards and goblins duelling and grappling with each other. Mages on the opposite hillside are hurling missiles at the larger giants and ogres who loom above the field, bringing blunt death wherever they swing their large clubs. A high pitched squeal assaults you're eardrums, you turn in its direction and see creatures screaming in terror, flailing and running away from something in front of you, but in the mass of bodies you can't see any sign of what could be causing the chaos, when the three guys in front of you keel over, one cut clean in two, a terrible apparition appears in the gap, foaming at the mouth, his muscles rippling, screaming at the top of his lungs and clutching a two handed sword 3 times the size of his body. You soil yourself at the sight of the Halfling Berserker

Now that is a nice mix. I've never really taken halflings seriously, (just taste I suppose) but the idea of combining him with a berserker is pretty cool.
