D&D 5E Transformers toys?

[abe ray]

Something silly:how would you fine people make transformers toys into dnd 5th edition terms? I figure that preceptor might make a good import for wizards at least.

I’m guessing no thoughts huh.

Do you mean just what classes you'd assign them?

So, you might be interested in this:

Which, according to recent emails I have received, is coming out tomorrow.

Oh sweet, I've been waiting for the release, I think they've recently added NZ as a country they deliver to.

I actually was thinking of in terms of characters or as magic items myself.

Other than the dicelings that are coming out, I'd do a line of fantasy figures that turn into various creatures (think Beast Wars, but instead of "robot" form, it'd be adventurer form). Maybe throw in some famous items/artifacts.

• Owlbear transforms into druid (duh!)
• Paladin becomes a griffin or a "dancing" holy avenger
• Troll into a Carrion Crawler
• Lich into a Dracolich
• Strahd into a Vampire bat (or Wolf ... or both)
• Mind Flayer into a Kraken
• Chest mimic
• Wizard into a Dragon
• Barbarian into a Bear ... or a Triceratops
• Halfling into a Bullette

etc.

Combine a magical weapon (or shield) with a Figurine of Wonder and you got a Battle Master!

I do like the idea of characters who can transform between class-levelled humanoid constructs and D&D-appropriate vehicles or magic items. Like, one character transforms into a stagecoach, one transforms into a sailing ship, another transforms into a flying carpet.

If you want to go Beast Wars, there's a Druid subclass in Keith Baker's Exploring Eberron, particularly suited to warforged but available to anyone, that allows you to wildshape into construct versions of beasts with enhanced stats.
