Svirfneblin Bard – D&D Character build 5th edition – Outkast
Greetings Nerdarchists. Nerdarchy is looking to launch another game into our schedule. If you missed our session zero feel free to watch the video below. My character build for that Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition game is a deep gnome bard.
Now bards in previous editions really did not appeal to me. I think before 5th edition I had only played one bard in approximately 20 years of playing Dungeons and Dragons. 5th edition on the other hand really changed my mind. I have played in less than 10 campaigns in the year since the release of Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition and 2 of those characters have been bards. So what does that say about them?
Dungeons and Dragons character build
So with this character build for 5th edition, my goal was to make a well rounded character. He has a few things that he would be good at, excel at really because of expertise but be a support character all around. As this race class combination is a sub-optimal character build it fits.
5E D&D Character Builds — Dragonborn Paladin
Hello Nerdarchy reader, Nerdarchist Dave here to talk character builds. I got me a hankering to delve into a dragonborn paladin for fifth edition Dungeons & Dragons. Paladins are an iconic character class harkening back to the very beginning of the game. Dragonborn on the other hand are a bit newer, first appearing in 3.5 D&D towards the end in a different incarnation than the current version. They really came into their own with fourth edition D&D. To be honest it took me a little while to warm up to them as player character race. Honestly it was the 4E D&D art that killed them for me. Two words: dragon boobs! The idea of a mammalian trait slapped onto a reptilian race seemed ridiculous to me. But I’ve decided to grow as a person and get over it. Not too long ago I wrote an article about dragonborn that kind of made me want to play one hence this article where we build a dragonborn paladin.
