Current Events > Pick my D&D 5e class to play

(+) Yeah! (+)

Playing at level 1. I've already played a Warlock, Wizard and currently a Rogue in my main campaign.

Critical Role made me respect the bard class so much
---

Clerics are fun

Bard has always seemed fun, and my first character in Baldur's Gate was a Bard (Blade). It's just roleplaying anything besides Chaotic Neutral spoony bard is hard to come up with.

The session does cover this weird curse where people can't be brought back from the dead, and the undead are withering away. Might need to tailor a character towards that.

That does sound more like a cleric or monk thing than a bard thing

Yeah, there's actually a Monk monastic tradition that works perfectly with the story. Plus there's this option I can take where I get 10% more xp & gold, but I have to roll 15+ on death saves. So that Monk tradition would work well there, or be a Cleric and focus on defense.

Think I'm gonna run Monk. Came up with a sassy old hobbit pirate lady who reeks of formaldehyde and randomly drops body parts. Will be fun for a one-off, prolly won't play her again til next month when the new modules release.
