[5e] For those with a character backlog, what build are you most looking forward to playing, but haven't got a chance?

Title
You're viewing a single thread.
A Dwarven STRanger. Classic Hunter, uses exclusively axes.
An Elven Fey Wanderer Ranger/Echo Knight Fighter who is basically “pretty boy in plate punches things”.
A blind Human Divine Soul Sorc/Celestial Warlock who can go in one of two directions:
-
An individual who believes themselves to be the Herald of a LG god, but is unknowingly in service to an evil deity.
-
A man who lost everything, and believes he was spurned by the gods. So, he sets upon a warpath to kill the gods in revenge.
EDIT: Can’t believe I forgot about CAT. The Tabaxi Genie Warlock who was a normal cat that wandered into an antique shop and was rubbing against a bunch of random things, and eventually rubbed up against a magic lamp. A Djinni came out, and asked him what he desired. After some confused meows, the Djinni couldn’t understand him, so he turned him into a Tabaxi so they could talk to each other. The Djinni then realized his mistake, and helps the poor Tabaxi navigate life as a new humanoid.
That cat idea is brilliant
Awesome. I especially like the awakened cat idea. It would be nice if there was more support for thrown weapon builds, because a Dwarven ranger hucking throwing axes sounds like awesome RP. The Quick Toss maneuver or the Returning Weapon Artificer infusion could make it work I suppose. I've always hoped a Dwarven Thrower would fall into my hands one day.
The cat idea came from this post, and I typed up an expanded version there.
As far as the Dwarven STRanger goes, yeah it’s a bit rough that Core5e doesn’t have any major support for mundane returning weapons. Although in the main campaign I’m playing in, my DM is very generous and allows me to use the Spheres of Power/Might 3pp, which does have options for that. And really just expanded options for Martials across the board. But the initial version of this guy had him primarily wielding a Greataxe and a Battleaxe, switching to throwing axes if he needed the range.
