I would be like 5 of these, so I would be multiclassed beyond usefulness. Come to think of it that is a pretty accurate representation...

I’m just multiclassed beyond usefulness.
Is my new go-to excuse.
I wonder how many groups would ever have a barbarian. A person with a temper that I ever see basically makes it to my 'don't-wanna-be-around' list.
Depends on how they express the anger and who else is in the group, I suppose. One of my friends gets angry at games quite easily, but he doesn't take it out on anyone else and can accept a ribbing from the rest of us about it, so while it's a little annoying it doesn't ruin the time spent with him

"Play an Instrument"
RAW v RAI
I can play any and every instrument, badly. Rules never said play well.
Play the music from tape while miming on the instrument. Surely, acting falls within the scope of bardic abilities!
Or just do some form of oration (rousing speeches, telling jokes, rapping ...). Bards don't have to play an instrument, and using your voice for your bardic performance is way more practical than bringing some instrument on the road.
I think bards who use an instrument should be able to cast spells with verbal components while gagged
Could you be a sorcerer if you're related to the DM?
Depends on if it's a bloodline relationship.
Handholding types get to be warlocks or clerics
“It’s absurd, we have a play group of 20 and they are ALL WARLOCKS.”
“My patron is Geoffrey d’Bezos, an arch fiend!”
“SHUT THE FUCK UP RAYMOND!”
Would bard-warlock multiclass just be that one Bo Burnham song about Jeffrey Bezos?
Yes.
I can literally do all of these:
Artificer - I fix things in my house, and was on a robotics team in highschool.
Barbarian (only technically, I don't get explosively mad anymore).
Bard - Piano
Cleric - Muslim
Druid - Have ecology degree
Fighter - Probably
Monk - Fencing and Judo (in the past but looking to do this again)
Paladin - Conservation
Ranger - Nerf or nothing
Rogue - Jury is still out on that, but I startle everyone
Sorcerer - My dad's first computer, the only stable Windows Me machine.
Warlock - Big research university
Wizard - See druid
Hell yes, Abserd-style multiclass incoming.
Hmm, some of these work. My DM does enjoy that good grass so there are some sessions where I could steal his entire box of dice without him noticing. Rogue it is, then!
I don't know how a GPA would translate from american to the rest if the world.
First you have to subtract 32 freedom units, then divide by 1.8 bald eagles.
Ehhh I think we can happily just swap it out for "good grades and haven't left education early"
Oh shit, I can be a wizard as well.
I'm just glad it's not gpa AND a degree.
Though it's an engineering degree, and I'd be an artificer.

I feel like this is too general. I'd want to customize based on specific IRL traits or jobs or hobbies.
You feed and befriend crows? Druid with animal skills focus.
You're some kind of a carpenter, engineer, craftsman? Artificer.
Phlebotomist's assistant? Vampire thrall backstory.
Retail salesperson? Bard with psychic damage skills.
Live in a basement? Homebrew troll obviously.
Software and coding? Sounds like arcane languages and warlock pacts to me.
If I'm a medical student (soon to be physician), am I really just stuck with Wizard? I do a lot of emergency medicine stuff and CPR is straight up necromancy, but I don't recall necromancer being a class. (it has been a hot minute since I've gotten to play D&D)
Edit: I'm completely braindead outside of medicine these days. Necromancer is a Wizard subclass. Time to go find a fancy hat I suppose.
If FOSS counts, there's going to be a ton of Paladins in this party.
I can multiclass the shit out of this.
Gonna have a lot of warlocks.
I'm a warlock wizard multi class : /
I could be an Artificer, Warlock or Ranger.
Industrial mechanic, working for the government, have passed proficiency tests for weapons handling in the CAF.
Damn I qualify for a lot of those:
- Bard (guitar, keyboard, drums)
- Druid (vegan and interested in volunteering in an animal sanctuary if i find one)
- Fighter (years of historical longsword training + a few weeks viking style + a few sessions rapier and a course in dagger fighting)
- Monk (Judo as a kid)
- Ranger (archery as a teen)
- Wizard (bachelor's degree in IT)
Rogue i might be able to pull off but idk if i still got it. I can move quietly but I'm also big
HEMA is still a martial art. But that probably helps.
Also the big sneaky guys are always scary.
I'll take the Druid class - it's literally my name
I can be any of these except for fighter just because I don't really want to kick my best friend's ass.
Then again, he is pretty scrappy, so like, I might end up getting my ass kicked instead if I tried, so either way, it's a wash for me.

I'm not great of any of these so I'll be a commoner. Unless LGBT+ Paladin counts
It counts
I would count it. Works for me too.
Honestly, warlock pally multi class with one level of wizard is not a bad build.
Commoner it is, unless my GPA from over 20 years ago counts
Old Party DM: "God damnit, everyone's just playing wizards. We need to mix it up!"
New Party DM: "FUCK!"
Time to pick fighter class cracks knuckles hey, DM...
I qualify for every class but Wizard (DNF college and who remembers thier High School GPA from 20 years ago (fuck I'm Old)), Cleric (Atheist), or Warlock (work in a small local trade shop).
I reject instruments only for bard, but I can play an ocarina poorly anyways.
Question about Sorcerer, what makes a family heirloom powerful? Is it size? Weight? Monetary Value? Notoriety?
Anything is powerful if you can sell the idea of it being powerful. Admittedly mine is a stretch but a fully functional and stable Windows Me laptop.
Magical cursed object.
I play wizard and am currently writing a PhD thesis. Checks out!
Electric wizard!
Either warlock or wizard for me. My brother qualifies for druid and monk, but i'm sure he'd go for fighter just to beat the DM
I inherited my fathers sword, shield, and cloak, so maybe sorceror? Is there one that uses weapons like that? I haven't played one in ages.
