Shout out to one of my friends, and players, Peter for helping out with this video!!

Also what are some of your favorite bad traits to give to your dnd characters??

[icefang]

filing this under "future character ideas"

[eggguy]

I got a good one. a Rogue that's not Rogue: they're actually a locksmith that lied their way into accidentally joining the Thieves Guild

[notsae]

I love the idea of a non-mage who throws molotovs while saying "I cast fireball".

[ArunRaj-zzxy]

A barbarian with depression

me: i use rage
DM: No you dont
me: yeah you right...

[lazynoodle]

A bloodhunter who's anemic and can't deal with blood loss

[TKZells]

In defense of the yoga barbarian, that sounds amazing. Like his rage is just passive aggression and eventual physical aggression when he loses his pose.

[SilverWolf]

"A paladin who is an alcoholic."
Me: [Looks at my character] I came out here to have a good time and I'm honestly feeling so attacked right now 😂

[Mukka]

A bard whose only talent is ASMR.
Bard: * whispering and tapping on a dagger * "D o e s t h i s i n s p i r e y o u ?"

[zcarp]

I think a dyslexic wizard would be even funnier. Like he uses the wrong spells or maybe even summons some sort of demon from time to time

[tyredsauce]

“A Barbarian who poops when he rages.” Now that is called a baby.

[crystaltriforce]

however a warlock that thinks that he's a cleric DOES work if his patron can't tell the difference either....

[Liamzilla]

Out of all the bad traits, the bard cleric with vicious mockery gets me every time
"God, bless this man to live, now get up stupid!"

[nucleargandhi]

A wizard who can't read: Their spellbook is a rich tapestry whose patterns, while not writing, guide them to prepare their spells. When copying spells, they don't copy down the writing but rather tap into the pure magical essence of the written spell, drawing on it to add to their own spellbook

[lynnthomas]

A rogue that only tells the truth just kind of sounds like Jack Sparrow in d&d

[Shynder]

Fun fact in the french tabletop roleplay "the dungeon of Naheulbeuk" there is a goddess of wine, and if the dm is nice with you, you can chose to be her paladin or her cleric

[vaportheowl]

A Rogue Assassin who doesn't like to murder people.
*looks at my own DnD character*

[MarvelousClover]

I fucking lost it at the bard cleric with vicious mockery. “Dang it! God! AGAIN”

[necasperaterent]

"A warlock who thinks he's a cleric."
Divine patron warlock: Am I a joke to you?

[diamondsanchez]

"A Cleric who is an introvert."

*Me, who has a character like this:* How dare you?
