Im tired of playing a "hit things till they die" character. I'm a battlemage now.

Which is pretty much the same thing but with magic.
>>
>>46135745
Because I play Wizard. Somebody needs to be the leash that stops the plebs from overstepping.
>>
>>46135745
My "hit things until it dies" character is always a Fighter, or a Warblade if allowed within the DM's group.

I inevitably dip into barbarian if the DM allows level dips, but I never main Barbarian. I make big clanky fighters that swing around a big fuckoff greatsword and tank hits in full plate.

Cause that was my last character and he's dead now.

>>46135745
Because I'm the DM.

Though if you want to get technical, I'm actually just playing hundreds of barbarians simultaneously.

Hm.

Good answer.

Because my last character was a Paladin that fell through his player's 4AM addled mind, then committed suicide by arch-nemesis because both man and figment of imagination were half-crazed with grief over the outcome of a moment of OOC cravenness. Which could've been avoided if I had realized the DM gave me a powerful boon at the start of the fight. So I'm laying off the RPGs in general for a long time until I get over it.

you fucking what, gaijin?

My goal is I want to be a martial character named Chungo Hungus. I figured the most logical way to do that is to be a half-orc barbarian But is there a better class/race to do this with, depending on the system?

The key is the name. I cannot not be "Chungo Hungus."
>>
>>46135745
I am.
>>
>>46135745

Because I can read.
>>
Becausr I want to be a hero and ideally be recognized as such by society, so I made a paladin.

She looked better in the comics. Less cutesy, and no mention of killing the entire tribe - she just left to try her luck as a mercenary.

Also may be possessed by a demon, but that's another story.
