So you want to be Avatar Aang in Dungeons & Dragons? Well, unfortunately y🍎ou can’t quite have that much god-like powerꦡ without breaking the game, but here’s as close as you can get.
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Avatar: The Last Airbender is still one of the best TV shows ever made. Kids that grew up watching Avatar are now playing 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:D&D, and it seems only natural that they’d want to play as their favorite cartoon superhero. Luckily, D&D makes playing as Aang pretty easy. We know that Aang is a martial-arts monk, and guess what? D&D has an entire class called “monk” that is𝓀 exactly that!
There’s some debate as to✱ the specifics, but generally speaking, Aang🦩 sort of just rolls onto a character sheet practically pre-built. Let’s go over the broad strokes first and then we can tinker a bit.
Aang, Air Nomad Prodigy
To start, you’re a human. You can be a regular human or a variant human--pick either one. If you’re a regular human you’ll get bonuses to all your ability scores, and if you’re a variant human, you can get a free feat. , a YouTuber that has already taken a stab at Aang in D&D form, recommends variant human with the Skilled feat, but either way st﷽ill works✨.
Next, pick your class. This one is easy: Aang is an Air Nomad monk, so pick monk.🍃 This also gives 🔜your character martial arts skills and is basically the perfect class for Aang.
Aang isn’t a particularly skilled individu🔯al outside of his martial arts and elemental bending, but he does have a few things that he excels at. Acrobatics is one of them, what with the consꦅtant backflips and “twinkle toes” moniker. Animal Handling is another. You won’t officially get a Sky Bison mount in the base D&D rules, but try petitioning the DM to be lenient for the character.
If you went with variant human♊ and picked the Skilled feat, you can also pick up persuasion, at✃hletics, and insight, all of which jive with Aang's personality in the show.
Aang's signature weapon is a quarterstaff, and although it won't turn into a glider on command, it's still a 🌳necessary element to the build. Make sure to pick that as part of your starting equipment.
As with all monks, you're going to want to make Dexterity and Wisdom yo▨ur primary stats. Aang is a bit of a charmer too, so don't skip on the Charisma. Constitution is always important for any character, while Intelligence and Strength can be your dump stats. Aang isn't a complete idiot, so maybe give him a base 10 in Intelligence while ignoring Strength entirely.
Avatar, Master of the Four Elements
Aang is pretty much 🐈just your average monk until level 3 when he joins the Way of the𝓡 Four Elements as his Monastic Tradition. At this point, your elemental bending skills kick in and you can finally feel like the Avatar.
Since Aang started off as an airbender, he’ll learn Fist of Unbroken Air to start. Although a decent skill, it’s entirely inadequate compared to Aang’s airbending in the show, but get used to that being a theme. None of the skills you get as an adherent to the Way of the Four Elements will ever live up to the amazingness of The Last Airbender. Unfortunately, unlimited pseudo-spellcasting is just not possible in Dungeons & Dragons.
Aang learns waterbending next, so at level 6 he can pick up Water Whip. In the show, Aang learns earthbending third, but unfortunately, W🗹ay of the Four Elements doesn’t have any cool earth-based abilities until level 17, so we’re going to swap earth for firebending at level 11. Pick up Fangs of the Fire Snake to imitate firebending.
Finally, at level 17, Aang learns how to summon the very earth around him by learning Wave of Rolling Earth. It takes Aang a long time to learn how to use all four elements in the show, and it happens even more slowly in D&D.
Everything else about Aang--from his abﷺility to project into the spirit plane to his absurd mobility--is all taken care of with each level of monk he gets. All you have to do to play Aang is just be as friendly as possible while acrobatically avoiding all unnecessary combat.
But be sure to trash the cabbage guy’s cart every chance you g꧟et.
