Someone mentioned that OoA Paladin with a 3 level dip into Feylock works well and makes for an interesting thematic character too.

How would I build this and what would it let me do over just staying in Paladin or picking a different MC?

my sorcerer is turning into a mix of mac and dennis from its always sunny in Philadelphia and im not sure the rest of the party is liking it but god damn its fun

Shield improvised weapon is 1d4?

First time player asking a character creation question. Could I make a human or dwarf cleric that worships the god of booze and drunkenness, and as he gets drunker his heals and abilities grow stronger at the cost of accuracy? He sounds like fun but I don't know if the rules would support his skill set

Do you see anything in the rules that allow that?
Then no. The rules do not support that skill set.

You can talk to your DM about arranging things, but D&D is predicated on 'bounded accuracy', and you're talking about willfully throwing that out of the room.

Yep, any improvised weapon that couldn't substitute as anything else is a d4

Intoxication as a mechanic is not super supported. there is the drunken master monk UA, but that's more about obfuscating weakness from a flavor point of view than actually being drunk.

>First time player.
>Already trying to homebrew.
Talk it over with your DM.
Normally better to learn how to play normally before you start throwing new stuff into the cauldron.
