[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 7494438, member: 23751"] Yes, they bulked up. They did not bulk up to the peak of human strength like Barbarians do. He also wasn't extremely malnourished during a critical time of growth like urchins are. I get that D&D characters are better than normal humans, but things still need to make sense. A street urchin, even an angry one, isn't barbarian. He's a civilized street urchin with severe anger issues. He can grow to become very powerful in many ways, but barbarian just doesn't fit in my opinion. I specifically said he was raised and grew up there, and that he had never been on a boat(which includes sand boats). I set it up so that he had never seen anything like sailing, but by RAW could still pick the sailor background. ;) If a fairy godmother gifted him with great strength, I could see an urchin becoming one of the strongest. He might even have many or all of his memories taken from him and replaced with those of a barbarian, allowing him to take the class, but then it's not really an angry street urchin barbarian as has been put forth here.
