I really really liked Hellboy II and I thought it would be cool to try and roll up a D&D character very very much like him. Any thoughts anyone??

Are you refering to Big Red himself?

At face value, Tiefling Fighter with high Strength and Constutition and the Toughness feat.

Ya that's what I was thinking. The point buy might need a little more thought just because teiflings don't favor the fighter class. I'll definitely throw up the stats when I get it done. Too bad there's nothing in the way of a special gauntlet that he could wear over his right hand to increase the damage a punch would do or something...

Everyone who's made a character based on a movie or video game character post it please!!

Whoa, time for some major bumpage!

Okay, how about the Earl of Huntington, the famous Robin Hood.

I was thinking Ranger (Archer Style) with Sneak of Shadows heading towards the Battlefield Archer paragon path.

Anyone up for Bilbo Baggins?

Ya that would be the way to go Zertz... we could probably whip that one up in a few minutes. For that Hellboy based character I'm going to wait and see what wizards comes out with for Monk.

I statted up Link from the Legend of Zelda games as a 4th edition "Monster". I'll check and see if I can find the file with him in it. If I find it I'll upload it somewhere and post a link to it.

I cast thread Resurrection! I Found and updated my Link as a Monster file into Monster Builder stuff. Here is a link to Link and Friends...

www.mediafire.com/generic-fighter

And a few other things I've collected from the Inter-Webs. I'll be updating the Monster Builder file every so often with new monsters. Also, the Monster Builder File has PNG Files of all the Monster Builder Files so you do not need the MB. And please let me know what you think of my Monsters :D Thanks in advance.

I guess this is thread Necromancy, although for as long as this particular board has been down it's more like bringing it back from a coma...

Anyway, I thought I'd take a moment to post my version of Big Red. Yes he's a Fighter, but I decided to have him multiclass as an Artificer as well. Why? Two reasons. One the Self-Forged Paragon Path allows the Right Hand of Doom to be 100% RAW and it's not just a prop but a suitably lethal weapon. And two, HB is always using various trinkets and relics that he has tucked away in his pouches, always having the right tool for the job is very thematic for an artificer. Enjoy! :D

Happy Friday, all! :P

I'm sticky-ing this thread, as we have lost a fun thread or 2 along the same lines, in the SWSE forums.

With mention of Modrons over at the D&D podcast a while back I was thinking of the classic video game Planescape: Torment. Has anyone stated up the Nameless One, Morte, Fall-From-Grace or the others?

I always wished they'd make minis of some of those characters.

I had thought about working on converting (or at least making characters inspired by) the characters from The Dresden Files, starting with the first book Storm Front and working my way upwards.
As for how this would move along as yet, not sure. Some characters are easy, some aren't.
