I always thought of hercules as more of a fightarian than a pure barbarian, cause he shows the marital skill and strategy to back up his pure strength, but pure barbarian kinda makes sense too, also weirdly enough I never get why's he related to the club so much, him using a club was a 1 time thing, Theseus used a club more than him. He should really have +3 breastplate, a +3 longbow and a +3 shortsword/longsword cause those were the actual magical weapons he received from the gods IIRC (the bow from apollo, the sword from hermes and the breastplate from hephaestus), also a lot of poison for his arrows, like a lot.

Thanks to the place I’m playing this character in I have the HP and STR to fight gods. Truly a warrior of mythical proportions

[@xavieravila3037]

I knew this one was coming. Either him or Arthur Pendragon. I also been trying to find more less known figures that aren't straight barbarian. found a few if you want any ideas for future builds. love them!

[@tabletopnephilim4633]

Yes please. Also Arthur is actually my next pick for 600.

@@tabletopnephilim4633 One from Japanese Mythology is Abe no Semei. He's a real person but there are myths about him. he's basically Japan's Merlin. another for the thri-kreen race is the Anansi from Africa. Jon Solo did a video about him for reference.

@@xavieravila3037 Ooh, I hadn't thought of Thri-kreen for Anansi. I'm also aware of Abe no Semei, but funnily enough one thing me and a friend of mine have discussed is how hard it is to translate Onmyoji abilities to DnD. They're kind of like Wizards, Clerics, and Druids all wrapped into one.

@@tabletopnephilim4633 From my understanding, they are diviners/pokemon trainers. heard it from Gaijin Goombah from a video of his explaining them.

@@tabletopnephilim4633 Another character from Japanese myth that I remember is Jiraya the Gallant (Not the the Naruto one). A ninja who summonses frogs. another character from Gaijin Goombah for reference. might be an easier build than Semei.

Any plan on doing a Batman build?

[@tabletopnephilim4633]

Of course, just trying to decide when.
