[QUOTE="Voadam, post: 9232645, member: 2209"] I have had a lot of fun reskinning 5e core options to do odd concepts. 1 A communist rune smith dwarf. Mechanical dwarven cleric with life domain who was narratively non theistic and just spent 20 years learning to craft dwarven magical runes, particularly life ones for healing, for the greater good. Warhammer and throwing sickle. 2 Anime warrior. Mechanically a vow of glory (out of Tasha's) paladin who narratively is just awesome and being around him makes others be their better selves, smites are anime super blows, lay on hands is warlord inspiration, his auras are that things are better when he's around. 3 Viking Wizard. Mechanical valor bard background pirate modelling himself on a professional wrestler. Looked like he had an 18 strength, but that was mostly his 18 Charisma and boasting giving that impression over his 14 strength. My current 5e game I am DMing for my conversion of the Pathfinder Sci-Fi in D&D Iron Gods adventure path has had a bunch. 1 World of Darkness lupus Werewolf (wolf that turns into a man). Mechanically a human druid, druid spells were werewolf gifts and rites. 2 World of Darkness Gurahl Werebear. Mechanically a barbarian whose rage included narrative shapeshifting. 3 Robot technologist librarian who is basically a Google machine. Mechanically a warforged artificer with a slightly modified UA playtest article archivist subclass and the cartographer background (for Google maps functions). All spells have been done out reskinned as techo items and he uses no magic. Levitate is rocket boots, magic stone is finger guns, his homunculus is a drone, comprehend languages is google translate. 4 Steampunk space marine priest of an Acme cult of invention. Cleric. Plate armor is narratively space marine armor, his +1 mace is a power glove, his spirit guardians manifest as falling anvils. 5 Gamera type cranky octogenarian not-ninja turtle. Mechanically a tortle hexblade warlock. His beak was his hexblade weapon, he spit eldritch bolt fire. 6 Orcish mechanic to a crazy AI super tech monster truck. Half Orc rune knight barbarian(?). I have not looked to closely at this PC's specifics, but his maul is a +1 two handed wrench, he has overalls of fire resistance, one of the rune knight things is a comprehend languages ability, which narratively we made the AI replacing his eye with a cyberscanner that can read the repair manuals in the AI's alien language.
