Wildelf Bbn2/Rog1/Brd4. (3.0) Rolled stats 16, 20, 14, 12, 11, 14. The DM wanted to kill me, then I rolled hitpoints <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f641.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":(" title="Frown    :("  data-smilie="3"data-shortname=":(" />. It was a two weapon freak with Indiana Jones whip, scimitar and handaxe and skills like an acrobat or scout. Spells: Magic Weapon, Animate Rope, CLW, Bulls Strength, See Invis. Great stunts: Clinging to the ceiling in a corridor at the lower end of some stairs after a cave-in with a Cloudkill spell coming down the stairs. Sitting with 0 hitpoints in the back of a huge fight and pinpointing the enemies invis flying wiz level 10 with Dancing lights (the DM didn't want to let me have colored and pink lights!). Dragging the unconscious groups fighter over the edge of a chasm to save him from an incoming fireball (Heavy turtle landed on me, ouch!). Kicking the butts of two kytons with a freshly stolen scimitar. Playing who's cooler with a flying Gelugon in the dark. Last and least: Saving the group once again and especially the groups level 5 monk from a level 10 fighter and a level 10 wizard. DMs last words to my char: "Oh come on, show me another one of these singing raging charges into flanking position for sneak attack with bulls strength and a critical of the twohanded scimitar. *** natural 20 ***. Dang, stop that, I was joking!"</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Bbn1/Brd5. Str 18, Con 10, rolled bad for hitpoints. Gave that dude a polearm and Power Attack... 3 weeks later the DM canceled the humanocentric campaign since he had no idea how to challenge that bard and the cleric tank in front of him with his human NPCs.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Bard15. Crazy singer, she managed to drive the DM crazy as well since she loved to use various Charms on his favorite monsters, then she gave them nicknames... Beholders, Kytons ("Clirry and Chainily"), dragons... whatever... </li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Brd8/Ftr4 woodelf archer. Somehow that bard stumbled at low level upon a bow of speed. Since noone in the group (3 munchkin clerics) were able to use a longbow, the bard kept it... and started to specialise. At higher levels, the rest of the group began to start battle with one buff spell from everyone for the bard... Battle over.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Singleclass bard assassin BBEG. He specialised in Disguise and enhanced the skill with spells. City campaign... as soon as he got a contract, he sneaked his way into the sleeping chamber of the victim and used a pick (or for style a greataxe) to CDG. The players needed months till they believed that a BARD might be their big enemy.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Bard tank. Yeah, that worked in 3.0, especially at low levels. The bard was wearing a breastplate and a large shield, Con was his best attribute (together with Cha), Dex and str 14. Till level 4 no other char had a comparable AC and only two had a few hitpoints more. The barbarian hit better since his strength was higher and because he got boosted by the bards song as well.</li> </ul>More to come.Edit: I love Perform (Swearing 'n Cursing, Arrrh matey!)</blockquote>
