[QUOTE="Krakenspire, post: 6792239, member: 6787754"] So as my miniature collection is rather large from my war gaming addiction, I often like to convert a nice mini that I can use as a character. I have a very nice converted [URL="http://www.games-workshop.com/en-CA/Dark-Elves-Witch-Elves"]witch elf model[/URL] that I would like to use as the inspiration for a drug induced frothing lunatic in an upcoming campaign. However these themes don't seem to convert well to DnD at least straight across.. For those who don't know Druchii Witch Elves have the following features: -no armour -fight with two weapons, poison is commonly used on these weapons -are frothing lunatics (frenzy) at least initially in battle because they drink blood laced with hallucinogens before it starts -are very religious, work in temples most of the time, brides of their god Khaine lord of murder -usually high initiative, dex and avg con, str We are starting at low level. Options: Dex Barbarian, gives frenzy, but the idea of witch elves ignoring pain is not really in their background. However avoiding being hit is, so the unarmoured defence with two weapons fighting seemed like a good idea. Monk. Doesn't give frenzy but flurry of blows could be reskinned to match somewhat. Monk weapons include daggers and short swords, a high wisdom seems ok as they generally need to be aware of temple politics so they don't end up as a sacrifice. Also I'm sure the DM would allow an unarmed strike to be replaced with a dagger. I also thought that perhaps monk for the unarmoured defence and then multiclass into fighter or barbarian. Any ideas?
