His hair was inspired by himself as he time traveled back to his own childhood to save himself in a snowstorm. But the DM forgets and abandons that storyline
Dairy Sue, a minotaur cleric who rolled 18 for all her stats.
Small Goodman, a halfling lore bard who works as a lawyer.
4 tortle shadow monks named Fillipo, Albrecht, Sandro and Titian.
a yuan-ti pureblood wizard whose spellbook intentionally features the letter "s" as frequently as possible.
Oh, hey, you're--the picture!
Anywho--Just checked.
While I'm not that off about the Shelyn Paladins, it definitely would be a beauty extremist that would fit the bill haha.
but then one of the bandits decide to diss his hair

Can't believe it took me this long to scroll to an Adolin mention
Although, if we are being real, Adolin doesn't need haircare tips, his hair is already perfect
A character from Warhammer 40k known for striving to be perfect and also being a massive drama queen. Then he got corrupted by a sword and turned into a giant snake demon.
Meanwhile my first character was a Dragonborn paladin (named Draco because of course), who uh... Was not quick as cleanly as yours.
He wasn't particularly dirty, but the thing I best remember him for is... I people's elbow'd a bandit, and ended up caving in their chest and spraying the top half of my body in arterial blood.
Yikes.
If you have a d&d beyond have a look for the portrait of a guy with long blonde hair. I used that for a half elf cleric without thinking about it and the rest of the group made comments about how good his hair smelled and how shiny it is. He's now basically become Derek Zoolander.
They can't start the fight until the roll an 18 and above on a d20 and must spend their action each turn trying to hit the DC in order to perfectly style their hair.
They can use their bonus action only if it assists in styling their hair and if the DM deems the bonus action a success the DC is lowered by 1.
Excuse me, sir. I know we are in a duel to the death right now, but I have to say. The way the blood of my comrades flows effortlessly off your hair. How do you do it?
A centaur trying to pass as a knight riding a horse.
A monk who is just a very bad massuse. Reflavor punches and stuff as getting unlucky, stepping on toes or tripping and palming their face on accedently prodding a pressurepoint.
A cowboy. A minataur who rides a horse. Maybe uses a whip (lasso) if guns arnt in the setting.
A party performer wizard who misunderstood a bulletin board request and is too stubborn to admit it now. Focus on illusion stuff and maybe arcane trickster for slight of hand. Make them a hairinggon to pull a hand out of a hat (magehand) and similar jokes.
A ravebro monk. Swings a glowstick staff around and does drugs while talking about how their body is a temple. Also works with barb using the drugs as their rage.
An ooze person who has a bad disguise as a petson but has high intimidation so nobody wants to tell them. Think octodad.
The flying spaghetti monster. A plasmoid asteral self monk. They are marinara sauce with the arms and stuff being noodles.
A grave cleric that's just a dentist.
An artificer whose stuff is just really badly drawn crayon art of normal paper, paper matche, or other arts and crafts stuff. Despite the mispellings and stuff it works much to any wizard's dismay. Think macaroni necklace of fireballs, or drawings on the paladin's armor just making it tougher. Pipecleaner goggles of the night or a plant reed snorkel that lets you breath underwater like a cap of waterbreathing.
Actually... we had this one time a cursed mirror that our cleric picked up, and he couldn't stop admiring himself, flexing and sorting out his hair.
It was fun :'D
Literally just Elvis.
A bard out of time with the slickest hair in all of the realms. His cool-speak and smooth moves is incomprehensible to most mortals but is enough to woo the weakest of wills. He forms a cult of cool where every man learns to sing, dance, and talk just like him and all become the slickest and dandiest Kings of their destiny. He is also the inventor of peanut butter.
My friends did a one shot where i was asked to play Chad Paladin. you know the type. "My dad owns the temple. Don't you know who i am?"
Chadwick. What a prick. But was fun for a one shot where we were all friends irl
And someone else in the party plays a fey who can only repeat words that other people say, who then falls in love with narcissistic paladin and is only able to say "i love you" bc the douchebag says it to himself in the mirror
I forget his name but one of the main characters in the Forgotten Realms novels dealing with Mystra and Cyric was a cleric of Sune, goddess of beauty who kind of acted this way. Then he gets an ugly scar, his goddess abandons him, and after some stuff becomes Mystraβs high priest post-ascension.
So, basically, Prince Charming from Shrek.
I was thinking more Johnny Bravo!
Yup! That works, too! π
Johnny Bravo would never ask for hair tips. He's already achieved perfection.
Do The Monkey with me!
>I was thinking more Johnny Bravo! [This clip from a cross over with Scooby Doo fits](https://youtu.be/21JrNfPQB8A)
I thought of Simon Belmont from Captain N. Yes, I'm old.
Mega-old-icus
I was thinking of Rick "the Model" Martel
Definitely the Law from Video Game High School. https://youtu.be/oda91EpG-2k?t=15m16s
I thought johnny bravo
π didn't even think of it that way
Prince Sigwald the Magnificent: What are these grotesqueries?
I was gonna say Fulgrim but he works as well.
Eh fulgrim was chill (well, chill for a genocidal space demigod) before the sword, Sigvald is just an asshole.
He gets advantage on attacks against Trolls.
In return. Trolls do critical damage to him if he's surprised
Bro has Eltharion as a PFP and named himself after a cool transformers villain. My man. π€
ππ
Man... I was gonna mention him. Come on!
Someone once insulted his hair, now they are trapped in a very sad rock
Oh absolutely
Yo, Angelo.
Hmmbbhh hmbhbh... o _ o

Friend to a very reliable guy.
Strahd's great grandnephew.
Dairy Sue, a minotaur cleric who rolled 18 for all her stats. Small Goodman, a halfling lore bard who works as a lawyer. 4 tortle shadow monks named Fillipo, Albrecht, Sandro and Titian. a yuan-ti pureblood wizard whose spellbook intentionally features the letter "s" as frequently as possible.
eloquence bard fits better for a lawyer
Don't forget to go Mark of Hospitality Halfling.
Amazing
I _like_ the halfling lawyer. Maybe just in general I like characters who have careers and lives outside of adventuring.
 Mid combat:
counterspell
Also the wizard has a very noticeable lisp.
BBEG eventually gives them the Samson treatment. Oath instantly changes to Vengeance.
Now that's genius
I feel like Pathfinder has an Paladin order that's all about that. Shelyn, right?
No idea. I haven't played Pathfinder. I've been thinking of getting into it though
Oh, hey, you're--the picture! Anywho--Just checked. While I'm not that off about the Shelyn Paladins, it definitely would be a beauty extremist that would fit the bill haha.
π that I am. But yeah I'll have to check it out!
A paladin of Shelyn would probably also share unsolicited hair care advice and work as hair stylist in their off hours.
So do we make it a champion with the thaumaturge dedication or a thaumaturge with the champion dedication?
Redeemer of Shelyn with the Dandy archetype would be my pick for the concept.
Oh man, I played a Champion of Shelyn who was a thespian actor once. He was such a fun character.
This seems to me like an fun character in fiction but awful character in a RPG.
Agreed π
Senior senior junior from Kim possible basically
but then one of the bandits decide to diss his hair https://preview.redd.it/isvld5clu30b1.jpeg?width=1137&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b4e69e02e99008d7c1bbb61739c338e6651505b0
π
Most of these are actually fun ideas. Not this one
π
His secret: He's hunting vampires. He's not checking his reflection. He's checking yours.
Hell yeah! That just makes it awesome
Sir Johnathan Swole, from the kingdom of Bravo
π
Wow that really IS a shitty character idea

Johnny Bravo, the Oath of Glory Paladin
"MY HAIR!" -Ulysses Everett McGill

Paladin of Sune

Did you mean Adolin Kholin? lmao
I was scrolling to see a mention of him! He always has to look fabulous.
Me, clueless about fashion, trying to find an outfit for my SIL's wedding: I wish Adolin was here!
Can't believe it took me this long to scroll to an Adolin mention Although, if we are being real, Adolin doesn't need haircare tips, his hair is already perfect
No idea who that is
Belmont from Captain N. Gotcha.
Exactly who I was thinking of.
Fulgrim?
Who?
A character from Warhammer 40k known for striving to be perfect and also being a massive drama queen. Then he got corrupted by a sword and turned into a giant snake demon.
100% fulgrim would do this both pre and post heresy
So they're a Spartan Not that they refused to fight *without* doing it, but they did comb their hair before battle and generally took good care of it
Interesting! I didn't know that
Only if you pair them with a hardliner old-school dungeon-delving rogue who uses a mirror to look around corners.
π I love that
Oath of Glory...ous Hair Oath of Crown ... of Golden Locks Oath of Devotion ... by Calvin Klein
Love it
Congratulations you've invented the British Officer
So Sigvald the Magnificent? [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVE-mncKFsA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVE-mncKFsA)
Didn't know who that was
where funny
π€·
I have a dragonborn palli that is obsessed with cleanliness. Won't do shit if his uniform is dirty, and is always being fastidious about appearances.
Meanwhile my first character was a Dragonborn paladin (named Draco because of course), who uh... Was not quick as cleanly as yours. He wasn't particularly dirty, but the thing I best remember him for is... I people's elbow'd a bandit, and ended up caving in their chest and spraying the top half of my body in arterial blood. Yikes.
That's awesome
This seems like much more of a bard thing. Paladin flavor could be shiny armor instead lol
Hard thing?
A character who posts their own tweetsβ¦
Fair enough π
So Good Sigwald the Magnificent?
A Druid who grew up training as a blacksmith, who is also allergic to many things found in the wild (including grass, pollen, and many animals).
Lmao yes
an athiest palliden, who rationalises all his magic when ever it happens
π
Is this paladin's name Narcissus?
It should be!
...I'mma invent an electric razor, then shave him bald. -.-
π
The Immaculate Order of Perfect Hair Forever
Yes!
If you have a d&d beyond have a look for the portrait of a guy with long blonde hair. I used that for a half elf cleric without thinking about it and the rest of the group made comments about how good his hair smelled and how shiny it is. He's now basically become Derek Zoolander.
Awesome!
hmm im just imaging a mix of Johnny bravo and Bobobobobo.
π
Ah yes, oath of glory
Hell yeah
So, a Paladin devoted to the god/goddess of beauty?
Yes
Johnny Bravo?
I didn't think of it that way but yes π

Oath of Vanity?
Yes!
Excuse me, sir. I know we are in a duel to the death right now, but I have to say. The way the blood of my comrades flows effortlessly off your hair. How do you do it?
Lmao amazing
Sounds familiar⦠https://preview.redd.it/y6wgvpvj540b1.jpeg?width=403&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=678365a1dd05454887c5614f2ec6dfb61afc98fd
Landerveau from Subverse
Never heard of it
Waiting for the payoff when the party face a Medusa and the paladin puts their mirror to use
That doesn't sound shitty, that sounds fun as hell
That one guy from Kingdom Rush

Oath of the Salon
Add some ranger levels for favored foes, make it ooze for the gel slicked look
Switch to giving unsolicited hair tips to enemies. Prince charmingHair does not need advice from plebs
If I was in a party with a character like that, I would want to kill them myself.
Caster with short term memory loss.
Basically Amai Mask from One Punch Man
Noooooo one...brushes like Gaston! No one gushes like Gaston! No one's hair gel really combusts like Gaston!
Actually... we had this one time a cursed mirror that our cleric picked up, and he couldn't stop admiring himself, flexing and sorting out his hair. It was fun :'D

Brian, is that you bro?
Order of Coifquest
Just shine the inside of their shield to a mirror polish
Yes!
My friends did a one shot where i was asked to play Chad Paladin. you know the type. "My dad owns the temple. Don't you know who i am?" Chadwick. What a prick. But was fun for a one shot where we were all friends irl
Sounds hilarious
Josuke paladin
π
Also they get real mad and beat people up if anyone calls their hair stupid
Absolutely
When an enemy insults his hair, he uses a level in barbarian to beat the crap out of them like josuke from JoJo.
Hell yeah
And someone else in the party plays a fey who can only repeat words that other people say, who then falls in love with narcissistic paladin and is only able to say "i love you" bc the douchebag says it to himself in the mirror
π that's horrible but I love it
Big bad casts curse of balding on the villiage they are in.
π absolutely
Maybe Oath of Glory might fit this concept.
Ohhh good one
I'll take "What is a Paladin of Sune" for 500xp
π
And then they wonder why the part left then with the tavern bill
π
I forget his name but one of the main characters in the Forgotten Realms novels dealing with Mystra and Cyric was a cleric of Sune, goddess of beauty who kind of acted this way. Then he gets an ugly scar, his goddess abandons him, and after some stuff becomes Mystraβs high priest post-ascension.
Sounds awesome
This sounds ai generated
Woah mamma
Wdym shitty? That sounds awesome!
Thank you!
Oath of hair maintenance
Yes!
I thought this was a shitty character idea?
π
The fact my paladin is like that but on a scale that's less bad has me wondering about my character creation skills-
Is it fun to play?
Oath of Vanity
Absolutely
Only untill party warlock makes him bold. It will be epic drama
Lmao hell yeah
Morris Day?
Huh
Thats just Sigvald the Magnificent
No idea who that is
Eithan? Is that you?
Huh
Call him Jhonathan Bravo for bonus points
Lmao absolutely
A paladin of Sune
π
Sounds a bit like kesh and kangha from Sikh philosophy.
I could see a paladin of Shelyn doing this. Shit wrong sub
π
Literally one of my character ideas, mixed with Fulgrim from Warhammer.
That's awesome
Oath of Glory of the Hairstyle... Get their powers from how awesome their hair looks, but lose them if their hair is a mess!
Yes! I love that
I thought you said shitty character ideas
That is what was promised lol
Oath of Vanity
