I am more of a rogue type. 

 I like rogues, wizards, rangers, etc. 

 I was always the thief. 

 Cool Lyn. I like dragons 🐉

 Chaotic Neutral Bard? 

 Actually yeah. The rest of the party is good, whereas my character in this campaign is kind of the morally gray pragmatist. 

 I was a paladin last campaign despite having no charisma irl 😂 I had to be persuasive on the spot and it was painfully bad 

 As a theatre kid, i love these players.  

 I’m basically the exact opposite of a theatre kid, so this is rough.

 Take it as a challenge.  And kick some ass! 

 diplomacy or intimidation ? 

 Then it's what you should be playing.

Playing ourselves within games makes for a boring arc. 

Learning something new and unexpected, makes the gameplay fast more interesting. 

 I'm playing a bard in a BG3 campaign. Quality of life is nice. Character has the right attributes for skill checks in conversations. Also for discount at merchants.  

 Your post is getting a lot of traction.

 My favourite is a master archer Ranger, use hide in shadow and snipe. Charm others to do the dirty job...
