[QUOTE="rowport, post: 2617907, member: 9729"] Heh! I actually think this is a pretty cool idea, honestly! :D Edit: wasting combat actions straight-up is pretty silly in D&D, but I could see him using Intimidate to demoralize opponents like that... Edit #2: Several of these ideas sound really fun and entertaining to me, and I find it amusing to hear the "groans" about how bad they are. Minmaxed characters in a normal party are always disruptive, of course, so I understand that objection. But just plain oddball concepts could be cool IMO. (I like the brain-in-a-jar idea, for instance.) Admittedly, the really weird ones might not fit a traditional campaign, but why not try Gonzo D&D sometimes? One of our campaigns is basically built around weirdo characters from Arcana Unearthed, Savage Species, etc. and it is Supercool. :) [/QUOTE]
