RnR Musician DnD Party/Characters

[Rav'n]

So... completely enthralled with Leslie's Post on RnR hall of Fame members... (which by the Way... Lord of Rage and I won based on the Awesomeness of Savatage/TSO and the General coolness of our Prog Rock knowledge....)

I took that info and went one step further... take your RnR musician and magically transport them into a DnD setting!! So here we go.

the Party
Gene Simmons Tell me WHAT Adventuring Party wouldn't want a Blood spitting, Fire Breathing Axe Weilding Demon on their side?

Ronnie James Dio The Original Gnome Illusionist!

Terrible Ted Nugent Ranger, Archer and part time Loincloth wearing Mad Man!!

David Lee Roth Partying WAY too much in the Tavern, swashbuckling Ladies man

Ritchie Blackmore He's already a Self Proclaimed Warlock!

Axle Rose What Better Rogue than a man who's seen the wrong side of the law... and is more than willing to stab his own Band mates in the back?

Lita Ford The Obligutory Hot Chick that can handle an "Axe" as well as any man!

Ian Anderson Can anyone think of a better Bard...than one who plays Guitar, Flute, Mandolin, Bouzouki.... AND ... already wears a Cod piece ???

Bono Who better as a Paladin than the man who Champions useless causes...

Alice Cooper Can anyone say Necromancer....? I mean... he does love the Dead...

Other mentions...

Rick Allen (Def Lepard) Ex-Warrior who lost an arm in combat.

Gwar Crazy Barbarian Tribe

Hani Kursh (Blind Guardian) Random Minstral in Tavern telling tales and singing "the Bard's Song", seriously... Blind Guardian not only has Albums dedicated to Fantasy... they've done the Musicak Score on Fantasy RPG's!


...so...what else do we have...?

[SniptheShadow]

Cool thread.

Lemmy from Motorhead (Fighter/Barbarian multi-class with a high Charisma score compiled of utter, gritty coolness)


Iggy Pop (Bard/Illusionist and all around dude that has been there done that waaaaaay too much, man!)


Glen Danzig (Gnome Sorcerer that sounds like a punk rock Elvis. On a sidenote, I once saw a garage band poster advertising a show in Ann Arbor, MI and the band was called 'Glen Danzig Needs a Hug')


Ozzy (low Con Wizard/ splash Rogue multi-class)


Manard James Keenan from Tool (Bard/Wizard/Wine Maker multi-class)


I might come up with more later....



Snip

[Dros_the_Juggernaut]

Bono Who better as a Paladin than the man who Champions useless causes...

This one made me laugh...a LOT!

[Mockduck]

Bono'd be on the boards here petititioning the lack of a druid class, turning it into a matter of Turbine being a political dictator...

Axl Rose would set a Monday night raid night for his guild and then show up two months later...

Gene Simmons would be the only one I'd kick from my group. I had a run-in with him one year at the Indianapolis 500. His media handler asked me if I wanted to interview him, I figure why not? Only to show up to have him berate me for being "the media" for about five minutes while he tried to get with a female tv reporter...biggest celebrity jerk I've ever run into.

[Rav'n]

The question is.... did he get with the Media reporter...???

Now... Back to the game!

Yeah... I was thinking Bono would make a great Druid.... or maybe a Paladin Championing the Druid's Cause...!!

Michael Jackson would try to play a Pied Piper type character ...cus..well... !!

[Rav'n]

A few more..

Jim Morrison he's a bad guy... why? He's the Lizard King!

Keith Richards yup stereotype coming....cus he did it so well.... Pirate/Swashbuckler/Roguie type

Henry Rollins Fighter/Tavern Bully

Steven Tyler Rogue/Fighter Street Entertainer/Thief

Anne and Nancy Wilson Pair of Tavern girls working the customers...Anne (80's version) is putting the moves on them while Nancy is slitting the Purse Strings.

[lord_of_rage]

Chuck Shuildner from Death Wizard. He would be introspective and cast killer spells
Chuck Billy Testament Chuck is a very big man. My guess Dwarven strength based monk.
Immortal Human Frezied Berzerker barbs. Like there could be anything else.
Jon Schaffer Human fighter/Guild dictator/part time Stormreach historian.

Lars Ulrich Annoying low con halfing rogue. The man likes to backstab things.
Sammy Hagar Bard/New owner of the Stormreach Cabo Wabo Tavern.

[tomfar72]

John Bonham: TWF Barbarian pounding the ever loving **** out of things.

[lord_of_rage]

My Chemical Romance: They would all be whiney, low con,noob elvn arcane archers ts the DDO translation of skinny whiney emo kids.

Ted Nugent: A dwarven ranger with big dwarven axes and an even bigger bow. Oh and the loincloth lol.

[Jopin]

the late Michael Hedges: TWF, never saw anybody play a guitar with both hands like he did

[LeslieWest_GuitarGod]

Captain Lou Albano & Cindi Lauper -



Two-toed Tobias got nuthin' on Sweet Lou. Captain is the dwarf twf virtuoso piker (any chance Tubine can offer us multi-colored rubber bands for purchase in the Turbine store, I want red, yellow orange blue and white - for the left cheek) and Cindi is the halfling sorc that has to do all the work. Think these two would be up for a two-man Shroud!?

[Doomcrew]

sorry, Ted's got to be a "Bowbarian"


Cheers

Michael Jackson would have to open up a new amusement park on Korthos Island, because as we all know, he loved to help the new kids... play......
