The Drunken Spellcaster


Homebrew and House Rules

Lantern Lodge

So I was thinking about how the Barbarian and Monk both have a drunken variant and I started thinking about how it would be interesting to see a spellcaster with some kind of drunken mechanic.

So I am sending out an invite to all those that feel like their alchemists need to become alcoholics, their bards need to become blasted, their clerics must get canned, their druids need to be drunkards, their inquisitors must become intoxicated, their oracles need to get oiled, their paladins probably wont be getting this treatment due to their strict code, their rangers need to get ripped, their sorcerers must get smashed, their summoners need to become sloshed, their witches need to get wasted, and their wizards must get wiped out.

I personally am thinking of some kind of increase to casting level (like free metamagic) but at the penalty of becoming drunk and having penalties to other stats. So what does everyone else think?

What class do people think that we should start contemplating ideas for?


seems to me the alchemist is the most sensible starting point, the question is how should this work? There are existing tropes for things like drunken barbarian and drunken monks. But a drunken alchemist isnt going to be jackie chan, so who is he going to be?

Literally, in this case...

He's got a point. The alchemist mutagen already supports this kind of flavor for the class. It probably dosent need a new style for a drunken alchemist.

In fact, i played a dwarf alchemist in kingmaker, and he was frequently drunk, though with his poison resistances it was hard to get that way.
