    If I’m a medical student (soon to be physician), am I really just stuck with Wizard? I do a lot of emergency medicine stuff and CPR is straight up necromancy, but I don’t recall necromancer being a class. (it has been a hot minute since I’ve gotten to play D&D)

    Edit: I’m completely braindead outside of medicine these days. Necromancer is a Wizard subclass. Time to go find a fancy hat I suppose.

    Old Party DM: “God damnit, everyone’s just playing wizards. We need to mix it up!”

    New Party DM: “FUCK!”

    As a software dev with no college degree, it feels weird to not fit into the wizard category because of a technicality. >.>

      If you get a corporate job, you can be a code warlock!

    I’m going to blackjack my DM with the rules book and take his dice. If I wail on a guitar after (play, not play proficiently), can I start with three classes?

    I can literally do all of these:

    Artificer - I fix things in my house, and was on a robotics team in highschool.

    Barbarian (only technically, I don’t get explosively mad anymore).

    Bard - Piano

    Cleric - Muslim

    Druid - Have ecology degree

    Fighter - Probably

    Monk - Fencing and Judo (in the past but looking to do this again)

    Paladin - Conservation

    Ranger - Nerf or nothing

    Rogue - Jury is still out on that, but I startle everyone

    Sorcerer - My dad’s first computer, the only stable Windows Me machine.

    Warlock - Big research university

    Wizard - See druid

      YMMV.

      Incidentally, as part of the Kingmaker chronicle, my DM actually introduced a race of cannibal elves who explicitly refused to eat vegetation as they considered plants sacred.

    I’ll take the Druid class - it’s literally my name

    I would be like 5 of these, so I would be multiclassed beyond usefulness. Come to think of it that is a pretty accurate representation…

    I feel like this is too general. I’d want to customize based on specific IRL traits or jobs or hobbies.

    You feed and befriend crows? Druid with animal skills focus.

    You’re some kind of a carpenter, engineer, craftsman? Artificer.

    Phlebotomist’s assistant? Vampire thrall backstory.

    Retail salesperson? Bard with psychic damage skills.

    Live in a basement? Homebrew troll obviously.

    Software and coding? Sounds like arcane languages and warlock pacts to me.
