How would I go about making a character concept based on The Joker (from Batman the animated series)

Race: Human? Elven? etc
should i go rogue? or maybe just Bard, but dont use any songs?
maybe even a mix of monk, since he doesn't wear armor?
(or i'll just bite the bullet and have him use light armor)


Make him use daggers? juggling them around....

any PrC's that would fit?
maybe the Luck PrC's from Scoundrel?

well you could be a male gnome Ilusionist... a sorcerer with ilusion spells... or bard with perform comedy (and again some ilusion spells)

you could see the ravenloft variant of the "evil bard"

I don't think so about the monk you wont be getting too much for the joker feeling but more of the batman feeling (besides you have to be lawful to be a monk and the joker is completely chaotic... or neutral at best)

PrC... i'm not a great fan of them but someone might give you a nice idea

and if you are going for the bard use Perform(comedy) instead of any music one... n_n

well i know there is a jester class in the class compendium, it was made by shadowfoot. if your looking to be like the joker i thin that might be a good class to start with you just need some acid false teeth cards and a trained hyena and your good.

A rouge with the luck PrC sounds good to me, although I've only had the book for a few days so I'm not that up on its contents yet.

I think you could get away with red leather armour that had yellow dimond shaped studs in it.

monk would not work because the Joker is Chaotic, if there was a chaotic chaotic alingment then he would he that.

a bard would work, but i think a rouge would enable you to do the character more accuratly.

Would you have the whole entourage?Harley quinn,the hyenas,the thugs?I would just go with a human rogue with a few levels of artificer so he can create a few wondrous items.RANDOM THOUGHTS
