Awesome Stuff

Unfortunately you would have a hard time writing any good stories for that character as any problems he encounters could just be solved with little effort.
No fkn kidding. As if batman wasn't scary enough as a normal human...

A couple of water benders, a dike, a flaming arrow, and a few barrels of blasting jelly?

Sounds like the makings of a gay porn film.

Well how could he be even scarier. He could also be a jedi, and a cyborg, and the one. Adding those elements would be even harder to fit into a coherent backstory.

There was one build I always thought was cool, it involved taking a really fat Warforged w/ Adamantine Armor and having him get above his opponent.  He did some serious damage by just landing on top of them.

Coolest character I've seen: Bear Cavalry.  A mixture of Beastmaster and Natural Bonded Ranger, with an ARMORED GRIZZLY BEAR is nasty.  Especially when the bear singlehandedly took down an advanced CR 6 Troll in fullplate in a lvl 6 party.  The Russians were on to something!

sum guy on that "other DnD forum" is playing a lvl 50 Gestault campaign and it gave me an idea....

Kudzu----NE Human
20Druid/20Dread Necromancer(with tombtainted soul feat)
20Ranger(wildshaping)/10Arcane Heirophant
10Planar Sheperd(Region of Dreams)/20Cleric(Tiamat)-for aspect of tiamat

THE Alpha predator, Kudzu reveres nature in its purest sense, that is WITHOUT the common races.  He sees necromancy as a means to an end... to civilization, and knows that nature will be better off after the extermination of... well  everyone!
Whats more fun than an Epic-casting, wildshaping, lich with a multi-planar undead hoard?

I want to play a Raving Mad Savant (RMS).

A character that has uses for profession(dragon) and has a Beholder personality named Bob.

I'd probably have to DM the game though.

Two things which could be combined into the same character which now that I think about it......
Swiftblade
Character who's weapon is a 10ft pole with a melee class gnome tied to each end wielded as a double weapon

I thought about it for a while, and one concept I'd really love to play is a CN gnome divine-variant bard/Divine Prankster.

Basically, I want to play as Loki.

Remember, you have to have three children that allow for the apocalypse to take place. Everyone thinks of Loki as just a trickster, forgetting that he lays waste to the world and kills most of the gods with his followers.

I am pretty sure I saw a documentary on Loki where he kidnaps (I think this was his rank at the time) Colonel Jack O'Neill and made a clone of him. Then they figured out who did it got Thor to show and save the clone who went to go have fun in high school since he remembered everything about the real version's life. The bottom line is that the little grey bastard likes to screw around with genetic experiments the others Asgard don't like. But it has been a while since I saw it.

To be fair, it was at least partly how the rest of the gods treated Loki, and later his kids.Though he was quite the unsurpassed asshole, of course.
Though he proves instrumental in saving Asgard many times, won many treasures, he never got the same kind of respect and prestige that the others received and generally was treated as a nuisance that they couldn't get rid of.
So he slid from mildly annoying but useful to basically random aggravation of...everyone.

I figure if they hadn't went and ripped his guts out, then killed his more normal sons, Ragnarok might not have been as bad as it was, if Loki had been on the side of the gods.

It's also a little cold because of that.

"Just what do you think the moon up in the sky is? Everyone sees that big, round shiny thing and thinks there must be something round up there, right? That's just silly. The truth is much more awesome than that. You can almost never see the real Moon, and its appearance is death to humans. You can only see the Moon when it's reflected in things. And the things it reflects in, like water or glass, can all be broken, right? Since the moon you see in the sky is just being reflected in the heavens, if you tear open the heavens it's easy to break it~"

Christian propaganda. I want to be the Loki that turns into a horse and then gets knocked up.
