[QUOTE="Vyshan, post: 8371078, member: 7031798"] Guess my characters belong in ryuutama more than D&D. For example I play a cheerful air genasi who is a warlock 10 / rogue 1 with the criminal background, their patron being The Genie. They are a thief / cat burglar who is built for and equipped with many ways to travel and sneaking, as she can fly or swim or climb or run or even phase through walls or just hide in her lamp while her imp familiar carries her. I explain this as my characters generally shines in the exploration part of D&D and only through personality really on the rp part with some occasional rolls. For combat at best she has an eldritch blast, but no invocations to make it more powerful. Although with last session my character was practically powerless before a beholder as my magic was useless and I might as well have been a level 11 commoner. So me, being the only person who picked up deep speech at character creation, had been chatting up this beholder and trying to convince it that I would make a fine servant and excellent thief for their empire. Since I hadn't attacked the beholder or their henchmen like my party had, I was free to walk up to the beholder and actually rp chat with it more even being able to turn its gaze away from the party during combat so the other casters could do stuff like heal the barbarian.
