[QUOTE="Dannyalcatraz, post: 8970281, member: 19675"] Disclaimer*: this isn’t for any existing campaign. This is a practical exercise in character design. I’ve been playing for decades, and have played most of the stereotypes; so I like to come up with unusual PCs to keep the game fresh for me. It also gives me a library to choose from on short notice, just in case. The monitor lizard mount is a good idea! If not that, then some kind of dinosaur or some such. I don’t know about a deity yet. As was pointed out, it would [I]have[/I] to be atypical, so I need to give it serious thought. Who would a LG Trog be inspired by? What deity would call a Trog to its service? Would it just be an adherent of an abstract LG philosophy? The Underdark Knight wasn’t on my radar. Good suggestion! It occurs to me that Marshall, Dragon Shaman and Dragonfire Adept might also be good paladin substitutes or MC options for this PC. I had forgotten Trog PCs get Multiattack with their natural weapons for free. Perhaps this guy leans into that in HTH. Maybe some Kensai levels. Re: nonexistent Cha penalty: they can control their emissions, just like a skunk. And skunks can be pretty darn cute. Why not a cute Trog ? Which gives me an idea…Sir PEPE Stinksalot.😀 Heraldic shield: Sable a Pallet Argent (two vertical white stripes on a field of black). * I [I]should[/I] just put one in my brainstorming OPs each time [/QUOTE]
