Why aren't you playing a Barbarian?
Why should I?
That was my last character. I'm playing a Paladin this time.
Because reasons.
Why aren't you playing a Rogue?

Because my group's game doesn't have a class system.

>>46135745
But i do, inspired by pic related
>>46135839
Well it could be worse
>>46135745
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.

>Implying Wizards can take a fist
>>46135745
Because I play clerics
>>46135745
But I am, anon, always.
>>46135745
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.

>because I am playing hundreds of barbarians
Good answer.

Mary Sue levels achieved
>>46135745
Because there is no game innwhich they aren't Derpy shit.
>>46135745
Because I took outlander instead

Go back to bed Marx
Communism is a lie
>>46135745
Because I'm playing an ex-barbarian.
>>46135745
Because their combat mechanic is boring.
You know, Rage -> Kill things -> Rage -> Kill things -> repeat until -> rest
>>46135745
I am. He's a retard wielding a chainsaw.
>>46135745
I am. He's a smug noble dickass with a certain temper problem who got sent on a suicide mission from the mountainhomes for banging someone important's daughter.

>Mary Sue levels achieved
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.
>>46135745
Because I'm too busy bullying them
>>46135745
>calling glorious hida-san a barbarian
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.
>>46135745
But I am.
>>46142235
that's a freaky design
Because magic
>>46135745
Because I'm tankier as a fighter and thus more survivable
>>46135745
Because I could be playing a wizard.

magic is pretty gay
desu

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.

It's cool, I'm pretty homo
