Day 28. Another week down and the last Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition character for this year. Today we have “Professor” Montgomery Fitzwilliam, a Changeling Haunted One College of the Spirits Bard.
Monty’s chosen face for performances was a thin, dark haired human man with a pencil moustache, think younger John Waters. His powers came to him after doing one of his “spiritual readings” with a new Tarokka deck he actually attracted the attention of the spirits that now follow him.
Mechanically I had to make Monty a level higher than the previous D&D characters to get in the Cartomancer feat from the Book of Many Things. I picked this as it fit with the whole stage magician/spiritualist who uses cards in his act deal. Also the Spray of Cards spell from the same source was chosen for thematic reasons, and is a pretty decent spell too.
I have done a version of this character before, but tweaked and rebuilt him for this as I wanted to add BoMT material to a character, and he was already a perfect match.
This does show however, how limited the space on the standard D&D 5e character sheet is for anyone noting down anything other than feature names. I had to spill over into the Treasure box and have very little room left. How many more sheets would I need if I bumped him up to level 20?
Tomorrow’s Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition character is Damian Hale-Seyton 27 year old rock star.
