so i so foolishly got into a challenge to make a character by concept, and then duel them out to see who would win, all at level 20 with the standard gp.

my character, for those who didnt read the title, is Carrot Top. i have to go up against Indiana Jones

assuming all core is allowed and no flaws, i have so far thought up to use Drunken Master to be able to improvise my weapons, as a reflection of carrot top being a random prop comic. also in that aspect, i plan on having a few bags of tricks, but dont know of any other items that would give me something completely random to use in combat/while rp'ing.

so any other thoughts? since he is technically a comedian, i was thinking of taking levels in bard. and since he used roids beefed up, i was thinking of taking a level in barbarian to represent his roid-ragenewfound strength

thoughts? i am literally out of ideas way too early

I say you just build an expert, max out your Perform(Horrible Prop Comedy), kneel before Indiana Jones, and let him lop off your head, first round.

Do the world a favor. The only good Carrot top is a dead Carrot top. :smallbiggrin:

I thought he WAS dead. I was so happy when he disappeared off the AT&T commercials.

He's headlining at a casino here in Vegas...

He's really kinda scary looking now-a-days... really buffed-up, almost like a steroid junky. And his comedy is a lot... angrier.

So... Mix levels of Barbarian, Jester (Dragon Magazine Compendium), Mountebank (again, Dragon Magazine Compendium... the "Beguiling Stare" & "Mass Beguile" abilities are the only explination for his continued "success"...)

Aside from facial changes, you can get a lot of the roid rages just from using lots of over the counter supplements. I didn't believe it until I saw guys I worked with getting like that. One didn't actually eat for about 7 days. So many supplements were giving him all his vitamins, calories, protein etc. And the weight gainer shakes filled him up so his belly never rumbled.
Then he collapsed and spent a week on an IV drip because he was step away from kidney failure, (and had massive kidney stones)

Thread derail over. :)

yes but...

Carrot top has a prop to make that funny. And when used it causes WONDER.

So you are going against the King of Badassery, Indiana Jones, and you decide to do Carrot Top? :smallconfused:

I agree with Gan; give Jones a scythe and let me CDG you. Don't worry, Carrot Topper is automatically helpless against Indiana Jones...

I like the idea, minus you are fighting Indy. I suggest the following:

Race:Unseelie Court Grey Jester
Class: Monster X (AFB now)/Jester 5/Battledancer 1/Drunken Master Y

Theme: Basically, you are the ultimate jester. Just preform some demented prop comedy, steal his joy, and make him suicidal. Done and Done.
