I love Dungeons and Dragons prestige classes like there’s a kind of Blood Mage that has the power to teleport by CRAMMING THEMSELVES INTO SOMEBODYS WOUND EVEN A PAPERCUT WILL DO AND POP OUT OF SOMEBODY ELSES WOUND THATS THE SAME BLOOD TYPE REGARDLESS OF DISTANCE.

Can you imagine it you get a PAPERCUT and some some unkempt wizard just stumbles out of it?

No but you’re missing the best part of that class they can LITERALLY MAKE YOU EXPLODE by popping out of you like say the big bad is the same blood type as one of your buddies you can just be like “hey fred give yourself a small cut on yer arm” and fred can and then you just cram yourself into fred’s arm and fucking six seconds later then bigbad just fucking EXPLODES IN A SHOWER OF BLOOD AND GORE AS YOU POP OUT OF THEM BEING ALL “SUPRISE MUTHERFUCKER BET YOU DIDN’T SEE THAT COMING”

There’s also

  • The Acolyte Of The Skin; who replaces his entire skin with a demon. Like, a whole fucking demon.
  • The Green Star Adept who just fucking eats a whole bunch of fucking expensive space-metal to turn himself into space-metal; just shoves it all in his facehole.
  • The Squire of Legend; which is literally a class training to be the best second-banana to the actual heroes you can be.
  • The Ghost-Faced Killer, an actual fucking prestige class named after a Wu-Tang Clan member
  • The Vigilante, a class notable for the main fact that its sample character is a fucking hobbit-Batman named fucking Beasley Biggums
  • The Rage Mage, who improves her spellcasting by getting really fucking angry.
  • The Flayerspawn Psychic, who is a psychic who gets their powers from having a Mind Flayer (IE, those squid-headed guys) in their family tree, despite the fact that Mind Flayer reproduction involves a worm eating your brain from the inside out and using your body as a host, which is one of the many reasons the book it comes from is considered one of the worst in 3.5E
  • The Vassal of Bahamut; who literally has a class feature of “gets a shit-ton of money” at certain levels
  • The Impure Prince, who fights Lovecraftian abominations by turning herself into a Lovecraftian abomination, which seems both ill-advised and severely badass at the same time.
  • The Master of Masks; which allows you to make Majora’s Mask-style masks that give you various powers and is actually legit-cool fluff-wise despite actually being not-very-good gameplay wise
  • The Thrall Of Orcus; whose requirements bizarrely specify doing a dark ritual “atop an altar made of at least thirty skulls.”
  • The Lord of Tides; which specialises in getting water in the desert and has an ability that allows you to extract water forcibly from a person Tank Girl-style. And if you kill somebody with it, the water turns into a magical water imp for about a minute!
  • The Divine Prankster, who plays April Fools-style practical jokes in the name of the Gods and literally has an ability that’s pretty much the World’s Deadliest Joke from that one Monty Python sketch.
  • The Primeval, who literally slowly becomes a fucking Caveman as she gains levels and has the ability to turn into prehistoric megafauna as one of its primary class features.
  • The Cancer Mage, who can literally turn into a flying disease at its highest level, has a sentient tumor as a familiar; can make armor out of garbage, and is actually-pretty-terrible gameplay-wise unless you get the right diseases; in which case it becomes unspeakably broken
  • The Ashworm Dragoon; which is pretty much a literal specialized Sandworm-rider class. SHAI HULUUD!
  • The Renegade Mastermaker, who is literally a magical cyborg dedicated to physically emulating a specific player race of magical robots (Yes, D&D has that), who has a magic cyborg arm called a BATTLEFIST as a class feature.
  • The Risen Martyr who is literally Jesus-come-back-from-the-dead as a prestige class.

D&D is amaaaaaaaazing…

@lilefarc plays a Blood Mage in our campaign and I honestly can’t wait for my shadow dancer to see that because he will shit himself
