I'll vote "awesome"


This sounds like the best idea ever.


We had the whole Loony Tunes statted out in AD&D...

Bugs Bunny was basically a demigod.

Liberty's Edge

I like this idea a lot. Of course, Hobbes should perhaps have ranks in Knowledge, History and Knowledge, Religion to cover history and philosophy.

Scarab Sages

Why not a Druid? I'm not sure how I feel about Hobbes being an eidolon. Besides, aren't eidlons supposed to be obviously alien?


If you're going to do Calvin & Hobbes though, some things to consider:

Animated wagon as a mount.
Beast Shape IV - Tyrannosaur.
Uses Polymorph other - with a plastic squirtgun as the material component.
Needs a level dip as gunslinger and hat of disguise to become "Tracer Bullet".

Not sure how you're gonna do Spaceman Spiff though...

But in many cases he's just a stuffed animal, so having an actual tiger would be a bit weird.

Besides, animal companions are a bit on the stupid side (in terms of Int, that is). Not quite the case for Hobbes.

Eidolons can speak, but animal companions can't.


@ AD:

So... where does the Cardboard box fit into that? :P

Sovereign Court

lol, nice. Kind of reminds me of my Timon and Pumbaa build. A few more ideas:

-Confusion -> Calvinball
-Disguise Self/Veil + Hallucinatory Terrain + Wand of Scorching Ray = Spaceman Spiff


I put on my Cloak of Resistance.

Well, Calvin initially created his transmogrifier as a cardboard box. However, that seemed to be too unwieldy for him and in subsequent strips he reduced the size of it into a hand-held device that looked amazingly like an ordinary squirt-gun. It was with the squirt-gun that he and Hobbes had the awesome transmogrification duel which ended when the transmogrifier malfunctioned after turning Hobbes back to a tiger but left Hobbes as an owl. Which was very unfortunate since Calvin did not like mice.

The cardboard box would still work as transmogrifier/duplicator/time machine of course.


Transmogrification complete!


Druid works better if you want to incorporate the transmogrifier.

This was what I was more curious about :P Sadly, I'm not sure how you could get something like that in PF. It was just my first thought when you mentioned the wagon.


Don't forget, STUPENDOUS MAN!!

Hobbes is imaginary, so him being a construct of calvins mind is best represented by an eidolon, rather than a real animal.

And i'm pretty sure hobbes is not what a regular natural tiger looks like in the comic's style either so the obviously fantastic look part is covered.


Very fun idea!

+1

I do wonder how does others see Hobbes as a stuff toy when Calvin falls asleep...

Can an Eidolon "materialize" around a soft toy?


Love this Idea.....can i use it if my current character i'm playing in a Shattered Star AP?


I don't see Calvin having the wisdom to be a druid.
