Hi i'm new here. :)

Here is Musashi. He is a ninja, and totally sweet. I made him 20th level (equivalent) because he’s so sweet that anything lower would be an insult. He could beat Drizz easily – in fact he did in the fanfic that I rote entitled "Maximum R0xx0r - Will the real Do'Urden please stand up ?", then he stole his panther and girlfriend. Then he killed Artemis Entreri with a sppon.

Quote: “I am COMING for U, lol.”

Cohort: Musashi’s cohort is his totally sweet girlfriend Driza Miyamoto, who is a lesbian asian drow vampire cleric of Loviatar. Her turn ons include anime, buffing Musashi with spells, whips and also leather clothes. Her turn offs include anything that is not totally awesome. She is his sister from House Do'urden.

Personality: Musashi is CN which I like to call COOL NEUTRAL LOL !

Appearance: He’s a ninja DUH !

Welcome to the forums, friend :)

It's a shame Musashi failed his spot check, otherwise he would had seen the Character Optimization board. That's where I think this post belongs (if you believe he is bad-ass).

From a Character Development perspective, he's nothing more than a Drow Ninja 4 / Mary Sue PrC 10.

Ummm... he's joking, dude.

Me? No, I'm not joking. Musashi is a character I had in my mind for a very long time. He's my favorite friend and he's way better than Drizzt. I keep trying to get someone to do books on him, but they won't :(

I'm not insulted. I think they'd want to do books about him because Drizzt has been way overexposed and something fresh needs to be done. Angst gets annoying after a while. Musashi does whatever he wants.

Character Optimization, man. Go. *points*

Now, if you wanna talk about storylines, we're all ears!

I think lines like "He killed Artemis Entreri with a spoon" and "Maximum R0xx0r" should clear up whether or not this is a facetious post. :P

I'm gonna believe you, only cuz otherwise causes great deals of grief. Not the good grief, as described in Peanuts.

Now, I'm a full supporter of the motto "snitches get stiches", but to clear up any confusion, this kid is clearly trolling. So, everybody can stop telling them to go to the character optimization board; this person clearly knows better.

Now just ignore the post and let it fade away.

Excuse me as I wipe vanilla coke off my monitor. However, he's also "The Darke Blayd of the Night", which means a few levels of the 'OMG emo gawth' PrC (at least up to the 'Describe Oculars' ability).

I'm actually confused. What is the difference between this board and that board? I thought he was optimized already. :confused:

Musashi? Musashi is the main character in the book by Eiji Yoshikawa. Musashi was also a samurai not a ninja. If you are going to steal your characters from other sources at least get your facts straight.

[sigh] To recognize a joke out loud is to kill it. When you see one, enjoy it for what it is. If you're not sure what it is, spare the rancor.

Persephone Imytholin- Heh. Cute. But don't forget, while numbers with no story is meaningless crunch, story with nothing to back it up is just useless fluff. Entertaining, both, depending on your tastes, but both boards have their more outlandish sides, and at the core, you need both to get the most out of your game*

*Your mileage may vary, I can't predict what kind of game a given individual plays, nor do I know what balance you, your gaming group and your DM favor.

And Artemis Entreri has a Will save of +8. One good enchantment is all you need to have him kill himself with a spoon.

Though Ninjas don't need spells for that.

Wow! What is this board coming to if we all swarm over some six-year-old's post boasting about how uber is plagurized, Drizzt-cloned monstrosity is! I find it sickening that this toddler considers himself to be a D&Der. Paul, Dungeons and Dragons is a role playing game, not a little play-time game where you can boast to all your friends about how your historical nightmare of a character is more powerful then their pathetic, personality-less "mega PC". So, in closing, go find a game that supports people of your intellectual compacity, because D&D is not your kind of thing ...

Just in case you don't think you're giving entirely too much credit,

No, I'm not joking.

I didn't steal anything. I just like the name Musashi. You're kind of a jerk.

And so are you. Except more than kind of. What did you do, invent the game? Even if you had, you don't have the right to tell anyone they can or cannot play. And actually, D&D is a little play-time game. It's not "teh most important thing evar!!!11!!!one!!!" Get over yourself, and your hobby. And someone who can't even spell capacity is not someone who can look down on someone else for lack of intelligence. But you're probably trolling me, so eh, whatever. :)

Allow me to deliver incontrovertable proof that this is trolling.

Perform (Angst)+2

Nuff said.

Of course, if you want to talk about insanely powerful characters, my thri-kreen fighter 11 (in case you're wondering, the DM we had was quite nasty - he had to be that powerful just to survive) could, with a little luck, kill that guy with a single full attack action.

Of course, there always the tiny chance that he actually is serious. If he is, that makes me very sad.

Love the character, but you need to give him a Cloak of Real Ultimate Power.

Yeh, all the character needs now is a personality, history, and decent build. But that’s not liable to happen because the poster needs to go find his brain, which is currently running as fast as it can away for this stupidity. I can't believe i'm seeing this kind of crap on the CD boards, if only Galahad and Tyr could see it now...the shame...

This post, whether serious or not, is indeed misplaced. This board is for adding flavor to characters- not just boasting about builds.

For the rest of you- trolling goes both ways. Inciting someone by insulting them is just as much harrassment as the original post.

Play nicely, or don't play at all.
