What type of PC are you in the mood for playing that you aren't currently?

I'm usually the DM of everything I play (sad reacts only) but, at the moment, I'm really in the mood for playing:

A hamadryad artificer. They're essentially opposite concepts, but imagine a hamadryad trying to evolve herself through steampunk machinery. leading to her becoming a monstrosity towards the end of the campaign?

It's cliche now but my dream is to play a talentless bard.

Off-key, loud, dissonant, annoying.

Make it fresh.

Play a sellout, a commercial plant bard. You have a penalty against fighting any other bard because they can't collect 1 gram of respect towards your art.

It's been ages since I've heard anyone use the word Payola. Truly brings me back to my kpop days

I'm usually the DM of everything I play (sad reacts only) but, at the moment, I'm really in the mood for playing:

A hamadryad artificer. They're essentially opposite concepts, but imagine a hamadryad trying to evolve herself through steampunk machinery. leading to her becoming a monstrosity towards the end of the campaign?
Giga sad react. I am in the same boat i would like to play but usually people hit me with random excuses such as, i cant think of a plot, i cant imagine having the responsibility, its just not for me i can play and my personal favourite "what do you mean i have to let you make a desicion on your own? Then whats the point of me creating a story when you can derail it? If i am to write a story then you have to do what i want you to do."

My brain inserted Warforged before artificer idk why, and i was like NOICE a halfbreed of a robot and a hamadryad, but alas i actually read the post and realized its that just you get there through the plot not at the start.

As usual i like to play a a person that has very niche bizzare powers that none might take seriously but in certain cases they cant be beat. Usually require some outside of the box creative thinking or stunning mentaly your opponents as they dont believe you can possible think that would work. But i am usually interested in fitting my character into the setting as they offer a unique insight into the Dms mind. I also like to hoard those nieche abilities and items and catch them all (AT ANY MORAL COST)

As usual i like to play a retard that has very niche bizzare powers that none might take seriously but in certain cases they cant be beat.

I see I see.

Theoretically, it's all about where the forging starts. So, an artificer is the one who usually creates them.

A hamadryad in a cyberpunk setting would be very cruel? Imagine a creature like that embracing the flows and surviving instead of rotting to her core.

I cannot think of anything more opposite to a hamadryad than some hypercapitalistic cybperunk setting. A cyberpsycho hamadryad?
