In this topic, I would like to discuss the oddest combination of race, class, mannerisms, or anything else. For example, a gnome barbarian captured in a raid by orcs and raised with their customs.

Ever want another forum? Well try out www.icewinddale.com

Well, my character for an upcoming campaign is going to be a Half-Orc Monk of Ilmater, I doubt that's too common.

Other than that I don't think I've seen too many really odd combinations. I've definately seen some standard pairings played in "unique" ways.

There is a PC in my current game playing a Sun Elf Wizard who aspires to be a Fleshwarper. So, most of his time is spent doing experimentation on living beings.

In the game I play in we have a Wild Elf Monk/Cleric that's borderline retarded and a Gold Dwarf Illusionist with an Indian accent.

half-orc monk of Ilmater.... is he by chance from Damara and was raised by the ilmatari after his mother died giving birth from being raped by Zhengyi's orc forces? If so, I'm scared.

Alavairthae, may your skill prevail

Nope, his mother was raped by orcs hired by the Zhents to stir up trouble in the Western Heartlands. His mother was saved by a Triadic Knight who taught the half-orc the way of Ilmater before dying in combat himself...once again, to the hands of Zhents.

Why would this scare you? Is there an already existing character that fits this description?

Actually I had a fighter turned paladin of Ilmater that was a half-orc on his mother side. I also knew a player that had an half-orc Bard and another one that had a half-orc druid...I also had a lizardman priest of Sune back in 2e and that was a fun game.

I hope Candlekeep continues to be the friendly forum of fellow Realms-lovers that it has always been, as we all go through this together. If you don’t want to move to the “new” Realms, that doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with either you or the “old” Realms. Goodness knows Candlekeep, and the hearts of its scribes, are both big enough to accommodate both. If we want them to be.

Enough for now. The Realms lives! I have spoken! Ale and light wines half price, served by a smiling Storm Silverhand fetchingly clad in thigh-high boots and naught else! Ahem . .
So saith Ed. <snip>
love to all,
