Order of the cockatrice cav.
|
I just came up with the idea of playing someone with the personality of Aquaman from Batman: B&B. What do you think on a 20 point build? I was thinking Bard/Cleric. Remember, I'm not doing a straight conversion. Just someone with the personality. Thanks!
Wow. That is... evil. But I do love it. The over-the-top, generous, optimistic, and strong-willed personality is a fit for many classes. The Bard is a given, and any class with strong leadership stereotypes would work as well. The cavalier is a great example of a class that would be rockin' with the personality that one might not consider at first. Even a swashbuckling-style rogue could not only work, but feel so natural that one wouldn't even think there was another choice. The personality is just that versatile.
Once again, the veteran players like me are going to have to wimp out on you and say, "Look at your campaign and the rest of the party. Look to what you like, and the class features that you find intriguing at the moment. Pick something that works with those criteria first." And that's simply because you want to work with the other players at the table so the (huge) personality adds to and not subtracts from the game.
All that said, have fun with it!
Just for a fun idea why not go Bard/Barbarian and focus on taunts.
OUTRAGEOUS!! Seriously though, you don't have to be evil to play a cockatrice cav. Just try and take all the credit and brag yourself up a lot. Sounds slot like aquaman b&b to me.
(well not exactly, A Cockatrice Cav would be a little more mercenary)
