Seriously. I think he would be a Cleric of Oliddamara.
He'd have to be a cleric of some sort, he's too laid back for anything else. Well, possibly a ranger but mostly I'd have to go with cleric.
Whatever he'd be... he'd abide. The dude is sometimes lawful in that way, though he also gets himself into trouble with the law... I see him as NG.
I think he'd be one of those BOED prestige classes... Apostle of Peace?

Yeah, I have to change my choice to Sucros'.
I'd at least make him a bard. He did work in the music industry. Roadie for Metallica. 'Speed of Sound' tour. Bunch of a~#+#&%s. And, ya know, next best thing to commoner. But he would need some serious hit points, based on the sheer number of times he's smacked around.

But what about his "philosophical ranting", I'm thinking in the D&D world no commoner would just spout some of that stuff off. Unless maybe he was a bar keep. I guess I that's why I could agree with JK on him being a bard. I'm not changing my 1st answer, I'm just saying I could see Dude as a bard too.

I gotta see this movie now.
Yes, you must. I'm sure you'll love it like crazy. This movie changes lives for the better.
(Begins reading card from the agency)
"Before I met the Big Lebowski, I was hooked on crack cocaine. I would get in all kinds of trouble. I was in and out of jail, I had no income, and my family wouldn't have anything to do with me. The Big Lebowski turned my life around: after meeting the Big Lebowski, I kicked my drug habit and got myself a job selling magazine subscriptions. How many subscriptions of Soldier of Fortune or Cat Fancy can I sign you up for, sir or madam?"

Okay, but be prepared to hate it or not get it the first time through. I thought it was mediocre the first time I watched it, but I assure you, it gets better and better with each viewing. Now I worship it.
Damn. Time to turn in the atheist card.

I was blown away upon first viewing, and though I don't like to watch the same movie more than once every couple of years, I've watched it through about ten times. I adore peeling back the layers of this comic gem.
John Goodman should have picked up an Oscar for his work as Walter. I mean that.

Walter was awesome. Still, the one I remember the best is Jesus, the Freaky Bowler (tm).
Also, it actually has miraculous healing powers. I suffered from gout and incontinence, but after watching The Big Lebowski, all the symptoms went away. Now my days are filled with joy, laughter and puppies. Thank you, Big Lebowski!

This is awesome. But if memory serves me correct, wasn't Walter the one using the bowling ball as a ranged weapon? Shouldn't the 3 ranks of intimidate instead be Profession (toker) +3?

Probably, but it was the only ranged weapon I could ever see him employing. Like the meat shield that carries a bow through the whole campaign "just in case". Also, I think Profession (slacker), despite its apparent contradiction in term, would be more appropriate.
I think I may just head on over to the untitled thread and git me one-a dem sassparillas.

I liked the nihilists.
There's a local band here in Canberra called "Nice Marmot."

Same deal here. My wife, too. We're hooked on the dude. Jesus. ("You said it, man!")

My favourite Lebowski quote ever:
WALTER (talking about nihilism): "I mean, say what you like about the tenets of national socialism, at least it's an ethos."PS: The Big Lebowski is the earliest appearance of Tara Reid taht I remember. Strange that her career began on such a high note and well... I saw her on an ad for a local broadband supplier last week. I just imagined her coming to Australia to do the commercial like Bill Murray in Lost in Translation.
Tara's agent: "Well, we can offer you Tara Reid I guess."
Manager of Dodo internet: "THE Tara Reid?"
Agent: "Uh.. yeah. Sorry."
Dodo guy: "But that's... that's awesome!"
Agent: "Really? Interesting..."
Favorite quote BY FAR:
"He fixes the cable?"
Am thinking first level monk.
"that rug really tied the room together man"
"You might want to watch out that window, Larry. Son, this is what happens WHEN YOU F**K A STRANGER IN THE ASS!!"
