Quick, I need a character concept!

[Jeph]

I vote for the Dread Pirate too. Except, be like a fledgling dread pirate, whose goal is to become truly dreaded. Whatever you play, you have to have a sword that belonged to your father, who was wrongly killed by whoever is in authority. If you find a new, better sword, ditch your "father's sword" and tell everyone that this new sword did indeed belong to your father, and had thought it lost for all these years. Make lots of pointless dramatic speeches about how you will gain vengeance on all who oppose you, for it is the will of Fate itself that you do so. Speak with a bad, vaguely defined accent.

Man, I miss that character.

You. Are. AWESOME! *YOINK!*

EDIT: yoink, younk, what's the dif, right?

 

[Kyramus]

1) human appears to only have 2 levels in whatever class, the rest of the levels are lost to amnesia. he/she was found on the waters holding on to some flotsam.

2) shaved dwarf, partly crazy, professes to be a chubby gnome or halfling, loves the sea, knows how to swim, but don't know jack about mining and underground

 

[Nightfall]

Still think a Sea Witch has some good stuff going for it.

 

[Cedric]

I say play a Ranger/Druid water genesi that has been "on his own" in the sea for years, but now wants to join "societies" to get a taste of the rest of the world...

Cedric

 

[Desdichado]

Pirate themes, eh? Ever read any Rafael Sabatini books? I'd say go for the main character of The Black Swan -- a gentleman and dandy by day, a ruthless agent of the Queen undercover to root out Carribean piracy by night.

It's a really good book, I promise. Although Scaramouche is my personal favorite.

 

[beta-ray]

A knight wearing lead plate mail who is afraid of the water.

 

[Lela]

A knight wearing lead plate mail who is afraid of the water.

He also seeks to either buy a plate of gold plate mail or turn his current suit into one via magical means.

A half-orc druid who believes in non-violence. The thing is, when something makes him angry his one level of BBN comes out.

 

[Angcuru]

He's a Half-Celestial Werebear Mindflayer Paladin named Haoul (ah-ool).

He's an a drow ranger who dual-wields two scimitars, but here's the thing: he's good!

SIR PHOBOS! KNIGHT OF MARS! BEATER OF ASS!

A weresquirrel dwarf with HUGE eyebrows and a rabbit scut!

 

[blackshirt5]

You screwed it up.
It's a part-celestial, part-gold dragon, werebear, Chosen of Mystra, Mindflayer Paladin. Named Awhooul!(ah-ool!). And of course, he fights crime.

 

[Psychotic Jim]

How about a fresh-water genasi who hates salt water for some reason and wants to turn all the world's oceans into fresh-water. Perhaps the character was a druid of a sacred fresh-water lake or lagoon that was contaminated with salt-water some how and it killed all the plants and animals of the delicate ecosystem. Driven mad and thirsty for revenge, the character decides to convert all the salt-water of the world to fresh. Or vice versa.
