[2017 - 2018] Various Characters, Old and New
Some various characters played in random campaigns, as well as some future concepts that may or may not be played at some point…
Obvious Jamie Hewlett parody - credit where it’s due!
Concept: Mastermind Rogue 4 + Battlemaster Fighter X
[Character Status: Not yet played.]
A character concept I have not yet had a chance to play. Basically, trying to replicate the “feel” of the ranged archer Warlord from 4E using the Mastermind’s “Help” action, and the Battlemaster’s various tactical superiority dice.
One character idea was Dusk-Over-The-River (aka “Dusk”), a Tabaxi otaku obsessed with military history (but with very little actual combat experience).
The other was Oliver Hox, a brazen, braggadocios Kobold that talked a big game, but was a total coward once combat started.
Dimitri - Eldritch Knight 17, War Mage 3
[Character Status: Level 20. RETIRED.]
My first ever level 20 character (seen here in his “lesser” form)
Dimitri (aka “Dimitrivaxinarian”) was a blue dragon that was cursed by Tiamat; as punishment for his hubris, he was forced to live out his days as a lowly Dragonborn.
His quest involved smashing the 5 Dragon Masks of Tiamat, which resulted in his curse being broken. He was notoriously greedy, believing every magic item in the world belonged to him, and that his allies’ magical wares were merely “on loan.”
It was a ton of fun to play a Lawful Evil character - it ended up leading to a lot of great comic relief moments with the party - some of whom were almost as shifty as him!
Kaz - Yuan-ti Storm Sorcerer
[Character Status: Level 8. Deceased.]
Kaz was played in a super wacky Spelljammer homebrew campaign. He was an electrician from a jungle planet populated by a hierarchical society of coatl-like Yuan-ti. A pragmatic fellow, Kaz was fiercely loyal to his allies, but had a bit of a “fish out of water” complex when it came to modern social graces. In the end, as a member of the “lowly working caste,” Kaz sacrificed his life to save the party’s leader (much to her dismay).
Bonus Jojo version, just because…
Tome - Kenku Kensei
[Character Status: Level 6. One shot, retired.]
A shy kenku assassin. Often flustered by social interaction, thanks in no small part to the Kenku speech impediment causing difficulty with simple, everyday communication. However, a relative ace when it came to combat.
Kenseis, man. More bonus actions than I know what to do with. Kenkus are definitely my favorite race, though - lots of fun RP opportunities.
