How to Play Weiss Schnee in Dungeons & Dragons (RWBY Build for D&D 5e)

Today we have a build for Weiss Schnee in Dungeons & Dragons! Is the richest member of team RWBY the strongest in D&D 5e? Yeah. She is.

When tulok finishes a team: "Wait, that's illegal"

A build so good, I had to tweet it to Kara Eberle herself.

Fun fact: Schneewittchen (pronounced Schnee Weiss-shen) is the German name for Snow White, and Klein Sieban (her butler with eye-based multiple personality disorder) means Little Seven.
In Germany, Schneewittchen’s best friend is named Rosenrot, or Rose Red.

Other DnD tubers: "Blade singer is just so meh. It doesn't really offer enough interesting to make me pick it over other subclasses."

Tulok: "hold my beer."

As a DM, when I heard 30 AC I died a little inside.

Tulok: "Hardest resist to cold, like Minnesota Cold"
Me: *lives in Minnesota* "Nice"

When you realize bladesinger fallen aasimar is literally Vergil from DMC

I know this build will have more spells than you listed but man I was waiting for you to explain Steel Wind Strike. It's the most anime spell and fits the whole Rwby asthetic perfectly.

Hell yeah, Weiss is my favorite of team RWBY and now I can play her :)

0:16 "magic"
The very few RWBY fans who actually understand the difference between aura, semblance, dust, and magic: Wait that's illegal

Tasha’s cut the Elf or Half-elf only requirement for Bladesinger and changed their 6th level ability too!
Edit: it also changed the amount of uses of Bladesong and made it recharged on a long rest.

Reverse Gravity is one of my favorite spells. If you're in an enclosed space that's big enough, you can straight deal up to 20d6 damage in an area with a 7th level spellslot. It has to be a perfect size for this to happen, but I can dream.

I love how the arma gigas comes crawling out of the ground like a zombie. Which actually hints at how hurriedly Weiss is summoning him.
(Normally he rises slowly and elegantly out of the ground striking a knight's pose

Glad to see best girl RWBY getting some love. Though I would recommend using point buy for such a MAD character. That was you can cap off both Dex and Int AND squeeze in 2 levels of Fighter instead of just 1 for a few extra health points and Action surge. Is it stronger? Yes, but that's not the point. If you are making a burst speed character and you don't have Haste up, Action surge has you covered. Shout out to Steel Wind Strike
btw, if that spells doesn't scream Weiss styling on her foes i dunno what does.

Weiss has ice powers, but in October Ice Cube got upset with Anderson Cooper so that's tangentially related? Right? I hope so, because I really want a build for Anderson Cooper!

[HAOSxy]

6:00 Ah yes, the mastermind tactic of fighting a Bladesinger capable of casting SHIELD with MAGIC MISSILE! They'll never see it coming, literally, it'll never come.

Seriously, these builds have been keeping me sane during this year. Thank you for doing these.

[noahdaglio]

Before watching: I’m gonna say Weiss is gonna be a human with 6 levels in fighter for eldritch knight snd 14 levels in conjuration or evocation wizard. Also possibly taking the elemental adept feat for ice damage.
Edit: well, bladesinger fits really well, especially considering her performance background, I just wasn’t expecting him to put it on a human.

[perihelion]

With the new dragon monk, is jake long build doable now? Love that character.
