[QUOTE="venkelos2016, post: 6820101, member: 6814482"] So, for a good, long while now, I've been playing a character named Silver in 3.5, and I wanted to see if he can transfer over to 5th. Thing is, he's "special" (probably read: snowflake), and at the risk of saying this dumb, I'm not sure if 5E is complicated/detailed enough to allow it. Silver was a young, deposed monarch, who took to thieving to survive among his people, and became the player party's mysterious, do-gooding mouthpiece, and instruction-giving buff machine. In 3.5E, he was a Noble, from Dragonlance, coupled with their Legendary Tactician PrC, and levels of Rogue, with a little something from Forgotten Realms that is neither here, nor there, to round him out. While I feel nothing good came out of 4E, Warlord seemed a potential fit, till I realized I hated 4E. Now that I feel I like 5E, my problems are: [LIST] [*]No Warlord class, or similar "fighter with a brain", to give instructions/buffs. [*]No Noble class. A bit of background, but not much. [*]No "officer" warriors, beyond the vagueness of another background, of which one assumes you can only have one. [*]Very little group-buffing, even for the Bard. [/LIST] Is there any way to build my kingly, silver-tongued rogue in this new addition, or is he too complicated? Everyone thought he was a bard/rogue, back then, as his rank is a secret, and Noble did a lot to sell it. Can something this "out there" still shine in 5E, or am I just going to be really happy about where Wizards are, now, and build one of them? Thanks anyone for your help. [/QUOTE]
