Have you ever "waifued" one of your own characters?

>image macro

...

It's Hinata after getting married and having kids

No and the idea is pathetic. Go get some fucking air, OP.

I've never seen this in a non-assblasted context.

No. But I only ever played one female character.

She was a glorious bitch, neutral evil witch that was part of a sorority of witches who used terms of family as rank and relation to one another.

She was crazy fashionable, magically altering her outfit, and using her powers of enchantment to bugile and entrance foes. If Purple Man and Bayonetta had a love child, she would be it.

She was incredibly fun to play.

My waifu is a magic Jew sent to save the world.

>Naruto never got over Sakura
>forces cowtits blind-eyecolor baby factory to wear her pre-roastie brawler outfit

She's pretty qt, user. What's her name?

I only make waifu tier characters.

Anything else is casual shit for no knickers bitches.

None of your fuckin business.

What do you mean, 'waifu'?
As in "I'd have sex with her given the chance", or "I have a small shrine dedicated to her"?
Whenever I hear about 'waifu', it seems like it's on one end of the spectrum or the other.

Probably, though I've never been 100% clear as to what a "waifu" is and what distinguishes one from a character you just happen to really life. Pic related in any event; she's a Chaotic Good Drow Thief named Iliira. Born on the surface of the world and raised by a human innkeeper, she was designed to be basically as exactly unlike Drizzt as possible; I usually describe her personality as being essentially like that of Lina Inverse from The Slayers or early Merry and Pippin from Lord of the Rings.

>What was so good about her?

I was forever DM'd, but in a way that's different from most people in that I still got to play various RPGs as a player - just not D&D itself. I played Star Wars, SpyCraft, Vampire, bunch of other things, but the one thing I really wanted to play was Dungeons & Dragons, but whenever D&D would come around in our group, I was the one who was sitting behind the DM screen.

Now, most people who get Forever DM'd tend to come up with tons of characters they'd want to play but never get a chance to. For the most part, though, I *did* get a chance to - except one, the dark elf thief you see in the pic to the left. Her backstory and skill set just didn't really feel like it belonged anywhere but D&D.

So for a good 16 years I added and subtracted and refined Iliira as a character, without getting a chance to play her. By this point I can tell you just about anything about her life: family, friends, hopes, favorite food, etc. It wasn't a slavish devotion so much as that every now and again I'd get back to her in my head, or occasionally write out a short story (a few thousand words at most) with her as the main character.

For the record, as of summer of last year I'm finally getting a chance to play Iliira. It's great. So far she has been both the cause of, and the solution to, about half of the party's problems.

>everyone who disagrees with me is ass-blasted

Just to cement my nerdiness, here's one of those short stories I mentioned. No more than 10 minutes to read. For the record it takes place about 5 years before I'd pay Iliira as a character; it's meant to take place during the "training" period of her becoming a Rogue.

>16 years in development
Jesus, that's some dedication. The longest campaign I've ever been involved in spans two years and counting.
Just don't have a heart attack when she's inevitably killed by a bad series of rolls.

Oh hey, it's the guy with the snowflake as hell Drow waifu with the cringey snowflake as hell name.

>reddit tier image macros

>I've never been 100% clear as to what a "waifu" is
That is a waifu.

I mean, given the opportunity where some sort of pygmalion shit goes down I'd tottally cuddle with her, but I wouldn't go as far as saying I've waifu-ed my character.

>Jesus, that's some dedication

Again, I want to stress that it was an on-and-off thing. I didn't come home from work every day and devote and hour to developing more about her; I don't have a room filled with notebooks, and my computer's folder marked "Iliira" just has her current in-game stats, the pic of her from above, the short story I posted, and the pic to the left here I made using one of those "draw your party" things.

>Just don't have a heart attack when she's inevitably killed by a bad series of rolls.

Nearly happened twice so far (funnily enough both against white dragons, though not the same white dragon), but despite starting D&D with 3rd Edition I very much have a 1st/early 2nd Edition approach to characters and mortality. Sometimes characters die. Permanently. Shit happens, and the risk of shit happening is part of what makes for a fun game of D&D.

My backup is a fire genasi sun soul monk named Siyyah.

Besides, Iliira dying in campaign X might kill her in that campaign (provided the party doesn't res her for some reason), but that doesn't mean she's for some reason unavailable in other campaigns, nor does it eliminate the fun I've had developing her over the years.

Idle curiosity, what do *you* consider to be good drow names?

What makes her a waifu?

I'm not denying that she is, I just want to be able to clearly identify them in the future. I don't want waifu to be an essentially meaningless term, like "Mary Sue" or "snowflake" has become.

>Idle curiosity, what do *you* consider to be good drow names?
Obviously what you needed was even MORE repeated vowels along with some apostrophes and hyphens.

Something like Lllli'iii-ira'a-a ought to do.

Not him, but I've seen worse and made worse- maybe player characters, definitely NPCs.
At least it's not 9 WIS-
>Actually is 9 WIS
Would your happen to work for Paizo?

>16 years working on a Mary Sue waifu
Not only is this clearly a waifushit character, but you've ascended to Toriyama tier waifufaggotry.

>Chaotic Good Drow
Stopped reading there. It's shit.

Pretty simple, she doesn't exist... Butyou still want to suck her magical Jew toes.

Because any real life woman is at best a slight disappointment by comparison.

What's wrong with her skin!?

A DANGEROUS NIGGER!
EVERYONE HIDE!

Leprosy.

>Average fantasy NPC using 'nigger'

>Lllli'iii-ira'a-a

I specified "good" drow name, user. Having said that, I want to pronounce this as though it were Welsh.

I forget where I got the name Iliira. My first instinct is to say that I was looking at a map of Roman provinces and saw "Illyricum", but I don't think I was in to Rome all that much when I came up with Iliira. More likely I just went with something that "sounded" drow to me.

I do remember where I got her (drow) last name, though. The Colors of Magic, a Magic: the Gathering anthology. The first story in it concerns a feud between a White magic user and a family of Black magic users; the latter were called the Ilmerias family. So I just pust "Ii" and an apostrophe in from of that and figured I had something that looked suitably drow.

Given how often Toriyama honestly forgets everything he comes up with (assuming you're referring to Akira Toriyama), I'm not really sure Toriyama is a good person to be comparing me to.

If anything I'm a bit more like Eiichiro Oda.

No, but funny story about the 9 Wis. It was actually 10 when I first rolled up Iliira for this campaign, however throughout the campaign that I'm (finally) playing her in I've been playing her as short-sighted and mostly only concerned with the moment, with a very difficult time resisting temptation, though fundamentally a good person.

Basically I've been playing her as though she lacked common sense, so about three or four weeks ago I asked my DM if I could lower Iliira's Wisdom to 9 to better reflect the character. And no, I didn't ask for any kind of trade-off like a bonus to another stat. Since I wasn't asking for a trade-off and since it really did fit the character better, the DM approved it. So Iliira now has a 9 Wisdom.

nope

Triggered, or autist?

niceme.me

Guy you're replying to, and autist. At least use a setting-appropriate derogative.
'Spider-bitch' ot something along those lines.

>Pretty simple, she doesn't exist... Butyou still want to suck her magical Jew toes.

If she did exist, I don't think I'd be Iliira's type.

>Stopped reading there. It's shit.

Y'know, if you react this way to Lawful Good dwarves and Lawful Evil kobolds as well, then I'll be okay with this.

Fuck your childhood.

I haven't done it, but a few friends play almost exclusively waifu-tier characters. In the current campaign, one of them is a nympho Kitsune and is trying to seduce the party's Paladin cause Plate makes her horny.

That is the lesser of two evils.
I try to actively avoid my own extreme autism, so nigger it is.
Adjust to relevant settings as appropriate, it matters not to me.

>Lol imma seduce the Paladin, aren't I so crazy :^)
Hate this shit.
I hope he bluebeans her the ENTIRE campaign before marrying his childhood crush and starting a wholesome family.

I'm referring the guy who has shoehorned Lightning from FF13 into every goddamn game since then and plenty of advertising schemes.

I even posted a picture for reference you moron

He was pretty over her by the time she threw herself at him. By the time the movie came out it was canon that he was only into Sakura because she was into Sasuke.

>Basically I've been playing her as though she lacked common sense
Oh great, so not only is she a shitty chaotic good snowflake drow waifu, but she's a LOLSORANDUMB shitter on top of all that

All of my characters are simultaneously waifus, and self inserts.
My fetish is lesbian hivemind masturbation orgy...
Help...

I didn't know that. The only Final Fantasy game I've played is Crystal Chronicles for the GameCube. I tried playing FF-X and got bored. I don't even know who Lightning is, and the only Toriyama I've ever known is Akira Toryiama, of DragonBall fame.

I can be accused of a lot of things, but "shoehorning" Iliira certainly isn't one of them, given that despite opportunities to roll up similar characters in other settings I waited until I could play an actual D&D game to run her.

I bring her up a lot on Veeky Forums but that's because Veeky Forums often asks about characters you're currently or recently playing, and I'm currently playing Iliira. But the next D&D game I'm likely to play in is Curse of Strahd, in which I plan to run a witch hunter-type character.

>but she's a LOLSORANDUMB shitter on top of all that

I'm sorry your allergic to fun. It must make things very difficult for you.

There's nothing fun about being forced to deal with chaotic randumb shitters. Especially not when the player thinks they're coming across as a cute n quirky perfect waifu

No, that's not the way to troll this player. Have her meet this tall dark stranger in luxurious Gothic plate armor, only for him to turn out to be a helmed horror.

Iliira's not exactly "randumb". Ultimately the motivation of her character is to become the greatest thief who ever lived - so that people will identify her as *that*, rather than as a drow.

In other words when she walks into a town she wants people to say "It's Iliira, the one who stole the king's jewels!" rather than "Ahhh! A drow! Run!"

So her actions are towards that goal. She doesn't steal everything that isn't nailed down and certainly never steals from fellow party members, but if she thinks that stealing something will get a great story behind it, she'll probably go for it.

The "chaotic" part isn't because she's random, it's because she does not consider laws or social mores when deciding what to do to achieve Thing X. It's not that she ignores them purposefully - they just don't enter into her thought process. I'm the guy who originally wrote the stuff in this as my opinion on each of the alignments, so you can tell from there what "Chaotic" means to me.

'Sides which, Iliira has if anything been the moral and ethical center of the party thus far. She's the one who knocks out rather than kills; who lets fleeing enemies escape; and who basically stood up and yelled at the leaders of like eight different nations/city-states when they were trying to decide whether to destroy or experiment on black dragon eggs, pointing out that the creatures inside were BABIES and it was morally reprehensible (to Iliira) to do either to them.

>greatest thief who ever lived.

Fuck me... The originality!

Classic tropes are classic for a reason.

Or, in other words and phrased as a question - what's your character's fundamental reason for adventuring, user?

In my experience it always boils down to fortune, glory, obligation, or some combination thereof.

>Ultimately the motivation of her character is to become the greatest thief who ever lived - so that people will identify her as *that*, rather than as a drow.
So she's a generic shonen hero on top of everything else. Grand.
>So her actions are towards that goal. She doesn't steal everything that isn't nailed down and certainly never steals from fellow party members, but if she thinks that stealing something will get a great story behind it, she'll probably go for it.
So she's not good at all. She's chaotic neutral at best, but sounding pretty fucking evil to be quite honest.
>The "chaotic" part isn't because she's random, it's because she does not consider laws or social mores when deciding what to do to achieve Thing X.
Because everybody loves the strong independent womyn cliché
>pointing out that the creatures inside were BABIES
How about the fact that these BABIES have an instinctual desire to torture thongs with their acid breath? Or maybe she identified with them over that, being a drow and all.

The more you tell me about this character thr worse she sounds

I can't waifu, fap to, or get aroused by anything I myself have created. Which is a damn curse because I'd gladly write my own fucking porn with all my fetishes in it but it just doesn't work.

WWWWUUUURRRPP DRAGON TOYS.

You realize that it doesn't matter what you say, right? They're already triggered.
It's like arguing with swarming hornets.

Me horny.

WAIFU WAFUE WAIFU!

WOOOOOY!

Are you ok?

Your mother is my waifu.

>So she's a generic shonen hero on top of everything else. Grand.

Trope significantly predates shonen anime, user. Do you even 1001 Nights? For that matter her motivation is essentially identical to Flynn Rider/Eugene Fitzgerald from Tangled. It's not that different from Indiana Jones' initial motivation in Temple of Doom, either.

>So she's not good at all. She's chaotic neutral at best, but sounding pretty fucking evil to be quite honest.

No, because her actions still feed through her "good" filter. She won't kill to steal something. And of course she helps people without thought for reward. Alignment is the sum of all your actions, not any one individual action.

>Because everybody loves the strong independent womyn cliché

Honestly the only reason why she, and most of my characters, are female, is a carry over from computer games like Mass Effect or Baldur's Gate or, heck, Gauntlet Legends. I'm a heterosexual male, so if I have to stare at someone's ass for hours on end, I'd rather it be one I find attractive. So in those games I roll up women characters, and that's just carried over to tabletop RPGs even though I don't really see the characters.

>How about the fact that these BABIES have an instinctual desire to torture thongs with their acid breath?

So you lean pretty heavily towards "nature" over "nurture", then? That's fine. I lean the other way.

Did she have a stroke or something? I mean, those are some glorious hips and all, but half her mouth is all...saggy and weird.

Yeah, I know. However, I like arguing, and I don't have much else to do for the next 15 minutes until I have to go to work. So why not?

They get to feel like big guys for arguing with the waifu-haver, and I get to have fun arguing. Sounds like a win-win to me.

No, daddy!
No!

It's a combination of dog shit drawing skills and Hebrew blood.

So yea a stroke.

What your father fucked you as well?

I'd say eww to that elsewhere, but this thread topic doesn't really warrant any derailment defense. At all.
Enjoy.

>good-aligned thief
>doesn't even steal to feed the poor or any of the traditional excuses for being a good-aligned thief, just steals for the experience of taking from somebody else

I hate when players try to do this kind of shit. Even evil-aligned thieves will often claim some kind of utilitarian excuse for their thieving, that they'll enjoy the stolen goods more than their rightful owner would have enjoyed them. Only the most evil pieces of shit in the world steal just to be stealing. That is literally the most evil possible reason for stealing, but you want your waifu to be pure and perfect so you pretend like it's justifiable.

>Trope significantly predates shonen anime, user
Obviously, but shonen is a nice shorthand for "moronic and simple goal, usually involving something dumb like GUTS or WILL to make up for all lack of intelligence or planning". Which especially fits your character, seeing as you're playing the "silly" problem causing retard.
>because her actions still feed through her "good" filter
Her motivation is to become a feared and infamous thief just for shits and giggles with a side of MUH RACISM. Being not as evil as murder is not the same as being good. She doesn't even have a Robin Hood vibe going on to justify the theft, it's literally just "some people wholly unrelated to you were racist to me, so that makes me entitled to all your shit".

So congratulations for making a literal fantasy nigger, I suppose.
>Alignment is the sum of all your actions, not any one individual action.
Like I said, that would make her neutral at best, seeing as her end goal to all her actions is undeniably evil.
>I'm a heterosexual male, so if I have to stare at someone's ass for hours on end
As someone who plays a female character at least half of the time, this is such a weak excuse that just plain reeks of insecurity.

Regardless, that has nothing to do with her bring an obnoxious twat that thinks society needs to bend to her will because muh vagina.
>So you lean pretty heavily towards "nature" over "nurture", then?
I lean to monster manual over attention whores, actually.

Aw but fuck maaan!

SHE PROBABLY STEALS FROM RICH CUNTS!

WHEN HE IMPLANTS HER INTO A FEUDAL SETTING IT WONT HAVE THE SLIGHTEST REPERCUSSION ON THE POOR!

WHITE POWER HAS BEEN ACHIEVED! ALL HAIL ZURN!

This guy gets it. Just because someone is wealthier than you and actually cares about securing that wealth doesn't mean he's "asking for it".

If I was your DM, I'd stuck an ex-adventurer not!Scrooge McDuck in the game just to watch you hang yourself on that rope by trying to fuck with the McDuck.

I haven't personally waifu'd any characters I've made, save maybe a half-dragon I have stashed away as a boss encounter. Damn if my group isn't dead-set on making all the PC's I try to make into husbandos, though.

>make single-father Alchemist undergoing an early mid-life crisis
>entire party thinks he's adorable, and the barbarian keeps trying to drag him to her room
>make full retard CN weeb kitsune so I can try out the more iffy enchantment spells
>other PC latches onto him and eventually turns him into someone that isn't a joke caricature
>have a short, short-tempered half elf barbarian whose schtick is DESTINY
>can't help but notice several sessions in that the GM keeps mentioning he has dozens of female admirers, another PC among them
>mfw this shit keeps happening

What the fuck is it about my characters that my group loves so much. My imagination is shit and my RPing is clunky, yet they adore them all.

>SHE PROBABLY STEALS FROM RICH CUNTS!
Just because someone is rich and a cunt doesn't mean they deserve to have their hard earned wealth stolen from them.

I made a bara sadistic lion man in Changeling once who wound up being my husbando.

Not me, but I'm in this thread for the express purpose of finding a player of mine that does this with every character he makes.

I'm too cool of a DM to tell him to knock it off, and it's only really bugging me.

You misunderstand.

Cunt is the equivelent to guy where I'm from.

Richcunt

Poorcunt

Goodcunt

Badcunt

Thiscunt

Thatcunt.

Fuck off strayacunt

Neck up ya fuckin dog cunt.

The converse is also true. He's a massive waifufag who will never be convinced that his shitty Mary Sue waifu that he sunk 16 years of his life into creating is anything less than perfect, so me pointing out all the glaring flaws and inconsistencies in her design is an exercise in futility.

It's still a good practice to keep note of these things so I don't fall into the same mistakes as this guy.

But what if they're adrenaline junkies (which would explain why they're adventuring in the first place), who use their ill-gotten gains to make bizarre, costly and artistic political statements denouncing the growing gap in wealth?

Which are often too strange for the average person, let alone the target of the statement, to understand

I think the GM is trying to tell you something, user.

I assumed as much, but the point I was making is that even if the dude is an absolute goddamn miserly cunt, that's still no excuse to steal from him. Especially if you consider yourself "good".

Sure, why not?
He wasn't very good at it.
You wanna go somewhere private, so we can compare you to him?

>liberal arts
Chaotic Evil and if you try to tell me otherwise go watch interior semiotics.

I never said that Iliira *didn't* steal to feed the poor. And when she's in a city doing burglaries and stuff, yeah, she redistributes the wealth. But Iliira these days is more of a dungeon delver. The two most recent adventures involved a white dragon's iceberg fortress, and before that, a floating castle owned by a Storm Giant.

Both are kind of far away from the nearest city, and of course I need to balance giving away wealth with the fact that Iliira's gonna keep doing that and fighting the Cult of the Dragon, she's gonna need a cash reserve for things like healing potions or clerical services.

>usually involving something dumb like GUTS or WILL to make up for all lack of intelligence or planning". Which especially fits your character, seeing as you're playing the "silly" problem causing retard.

As I said, most character motivations for adventure for either fortune, glory, or obligation. I'm certain that if you posted your character's motivations I could simplify them just as easily as you are mine.

>feared
No one ever said anything about feared.

>As someone who plays a female character at least half of the time, this is such a weak excuse that just plain reeks of insecurity.

As you like. I've certainly never found myself attracted to males, nor seriously wishing that I was female. I'm no psychologist, I was just stating what I think to be the most likely genesis of my tendency to roll up female characters.

>I lean to monster manual over attention whores, actually.

Be that as it may, a fundamental point of D&D is that pretty much anything can change its alignment, particularly as long as it's not literally made out of Evil or something. Hence characters like Falls-From-Grace, or, heck, Drizzt. And of course Eberron was all over the idea that dragons could come in any alignment.

But, to each their own, I guess. Anyway, like I said, I have to go off to work now. Toodles.

Seriously the worst.

That would count as chaotic stupid.

And now that I think of it, someone who wants the experience of stealing first and foremost would steal from the poor because it's easier.

I understand, but I'm going to have you killed.

I didn't even like the manga or browse /a, but fuck me if that wasn't the single greatest day on Veeky Forums.

Good to know best girl won in the end.

On track to OP, no. I write a lot and it's still a no.

what happened? A synopsis would be nice.

>male player playing a female character because he finds it sexually exciting
>it's a chaotic good drow
>who acts like a kender

Shit, this is the three worst things a player character in D&D can be, all rolled into one.
