D&D Players of Reddit. What is the most creative character you've seen someone play as?

I once kidnapped a player character wizard and replaced them with a high-level illusion created by the BBEG.

The player then had to control the illusion from the perspective of the BBEG.

That's Big Bad Evil Guy, pretending to still be a member of the party. It was

surprisingly effective. Just as they reached the BBEG, they were slowly realizing he wasn't helping

much anymore. I played Esa Wemick back in college, and I loved that character. He was a druid, and thus could only carry wooden weapons.

So, after thinking about it, I gave him a lance, and then proceeded to get every feat you could

for a knight on horseback, trample, charges, etc.

I leveled like a monster class instead of a player class, aka slow as snails, but man, it was a

he was a hella fun character.

He could do some insane damage by the end of the game, and if he had to get into close

combat, he could do rake, rake, bite for damage.

My favorite part though were his two animal companions.

The first was a weasel that took levels of thief.

So it was our trap dismantler and eventually had vorple front teeth, so it had a devastating bite attack.

The second was, and I'm not kidding, a giant white blood cell.

It had been magicked out of a giant and made even larger and it rode

around on my druid's back. As the group's healer, it would blob onto them and heal them with a few

levels of cleric. Mind you, my druid was teamed up with the Lizardman Barbarian, who was surprisingly

smart, and the Fay Bard barred that would drink anything

put in front of him, which is how he ended up as a half-elf woman of a different alignment by the

end of the game. The fay had a long-standing thing about drinking anything put in front of him.
