Your design challenge for this week is to create a super-powered modern-day character based on the name and general concept of a Dungeons & Dragons class. Examples from actual published comics would include the likes of Paladin, Wizard, and of course Rogue.
Note that in those cases the actual power set of the original class is sometimes only peripherally part of the actual character. Rogue does steal something -- powers -- which is pretty close, but she's not a trap springer or backstabber. You don't have to be limited like that, though; if you want, you can make a character named Rogue who would duplicate those D&D roles more perfectly. Or, you can go in a totally unexpected direction, say by making a psychic thief who steals memories or somesuch.
So, here are the rules:
- All entries must be left as a link in a comment to this post;
- Your linked character image should be on a publicly accessible web server (i.e. the UGO Forums or PhotoBucket or ImageShack or what have you);
- The character must be named after one of the D&D classes on this list and should make me go "wow!" when I see it.
Next Monday I'll select the Finalists from all submissions, and one overall Winner who will receive his or her choice of either a custom item or a portrait of themselves, to appear in the final HeroMachine 3 version.
Good luck everyone!
Would it be okay if a I save a file with the class written above it? I already have a lot of characters to submit, but I’d rather not go through the hassle of renaming them all.
If you mean you have characters with other names you want to rename outside of the image for the purposes of this contest, I’d rather you didn’t. These things are a lot more fun if you do something fresh, rather than just repurposing something you did for some other concept or reason. That’s just my opinion and preference, though.
You can submit what you like, but if I see an image with the name of someone on it that’s not a D&D class name, I’m extremely unlikely to look favorably upon it. Challenge yourself and do something new!
I’m definitely going to do some new ones too. It’s just that this contest happens to be what I use HM for anyway, so I already have a lot of cool stuff that you might like. I’ll go ahead and rename the ones I will be submitting.

This is my take on “Druid”. He has the power to shift into beast form (usually a bear). The power was granted to him by the Forest Gods who gave the druids of old their powers. The scar is from the Bear-God who gave “Druid” his power. The cowl is there because under it “Druid”s face looks a bit bestial (note the eyes).
When I first read the competition I thought you meant create an actual person of that class in D&D so theres the result:
http://i820.photobucket.com/albums/zz123/haggai5/Druid-2.jpg
It may be “Druid”s mentor or something.
@Jeff: Can a character be of more than one class, say both commoner and warrior?
Danny, as long as it’s named after at least one of the classes and is a cool take on those general abilities, that’s fine.
Sorry for the mix up (new to photobucket). there is the Fantasy Druid:
http://i820.photobucket.com/albums/zz123/haggai5/Druid.jpg
@the good Mr. Hebert: So the name of the character has to be one of those class names on the list?
Danny, yep, that’s rule number three.
@Jeff: I don’t mean to be a pain in the ass, I just want to make absolutely sure I understand the rules. Can a warrior be called the Avenging Warrior, a druid be called the Dark Druid?
Danny, yeah, that’s fine, as long as the class name is in the character name, adding other bits is cool.
@Jeff: Got it. Thanks!

How did you do the helmet on your barbarian?
This is Monk, a character who was granted immortality in exchange for ridding the world of the demonic forces of lucifer, who walk among us, disguised as regular people and influential figures throughout the world. He uses throwing knives dipped in holy water and an unbreakable staff made from the bark of the tree of knowledge of good and evil to aid him in this mission.

This is Nobleman (based on Noble), a billionaire and criminal who was born with a silver tongue. His unnatural charisma causes anyone around him to idolize him and believe anything he says, no matter how ludicrous. All this power has gone to his head and he believes he can do anything he wants, committing crime simply because he is able, and does so with a subtle, simple, and smug finesse.

Here’s my modern take on the Rogue class:
http://s624.photobucket.com/albums/tt323/Brambles_2009/?action=view¤t=RogueClass.jpg
A deadly trained assassin the Rogue is a master of small arms and hand to hand combat. Laser guided precision with throwing knives and devastating stealthiness make the Rogue class a silent force to be reckoned with.
This would be my attempt at a Soulknife,
http://i456.photobucket.com/albums/qq282/Delarqua/Soulknife.jpg
Maybe I should play D&D sometime.
Here is my take on Warmage
He is unlike the heroes that mostly fight crime. While they are rushing into battle, he is behind, watching, gathering information. He then forms a strategy. He finally goes in, spells flying and spear swinging. He takes down the bad guys and is one of the best tacticians ever to have lived.

Dang, look at the early entries! I was thinking of doing a few serious characters. Is there a D&D character class that just runs around waving a white flag?
This is my modern take on the Barbarian class:
http://s624.photobucket.com/albums/tt323/Brambles_2009/?action=view¤t=BarbarianClass.jpg
A fierce mercenary warrior the Barbarian is a walking tank with an itchy trigger finger. The Barbarian carries a custom automatic shotgun with a chainsaw bayonet, grenades, and a high powered assault rifle with grenade launcher attachment. He’s go enough firepower to be a one man army. This hothead’s arsenal is nothing to laugh at.
@Tigerguy786
I used two standart US.Army helmet enlarged one of them and the other I flipped 180 and reshaped it to match as a lower piece and then used other pieces to mask the lines in between.The eye holes are from eyes/standart(on the last page i think) with masked heads in each and the bolts on the lower part are insignia/circles I reduced the size and placed one by one.

Guys, let me clarify — the point is not to make a rogue. The point is to make a super-hero character named “Rogue”. The point is not to post a picture of the wizard you played in a D&D campaign, the point is to make a super-hero character named “Wizard”, envisioning what someone with that name would be like as that sort of character.
We’ve done class-centered contests before like with Fighters and Spellcasters, but this contest is more like one of the “Make a character with this random name” editions, only you’re building it around a D&D class name and general concept, and as a super-hero.
Hope that helps clarify what I’ll be looking for.

While not exactly super-powered, this character does have a lot of money, which seems to count as a power for Iron Man, Batman, and Green Arrow, so I don’t think I’m outside of the rules with him. So, without further ramblings, I give you: The Aristocrat!

http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m189/acebase_2006/Hero%20Forum/Barbarian.png
This is bard, a man with the ability to cause hallucinations with his voice. When he sings, the tonal pattern of his voice causes mental feedback and results in illusions of sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. In an attempt to silence him, the mob mutilated his vocal cords, leaving him with the strength only to whisper. Now he uses special amplifying technology to project his voice through speakers in his hands. He is a morally ambiguous character, fighting crime one day and robbing a bank the next. Whatever is most advantageous at the time.

Think I’ll throw in Breid, a Paladin of Slaughter. He was cursed years ago, starting with his right arm. It was horribly mutated and caused a very destructive magical power within him. To contain the threat, the people of his village had his right arm cut off.
Well, that didn’t stop it. It appeared again, though oddly enough in his leg. They de-limbed him, and using replaced his previous parts with new metal ones appendages.
Still, the disease spread, and the villagers decided to exile him. The boy named himself ‘Breid’, and eventually returned, stronger and still slightly mutated, to wreak horrible vengeance on those who exiled him.

Real Name: Celia Sorensen
Place of Birth: Rochester, MN
Group Affiliation: The Good Guys
Powers/Abilities: Telepathy, psychokinesis, precognition, limited telekinesis.
Bio: At the tender age of 9, young Celia Sorensen became aware that she was different from other children. When exposed to large crowds of people, she could “hear” the thoughts of others. As years went by, this ability became more powerful, yet more difficult to control. At the age of 13, Celia’s parents enrolled her in the Academy of Extranormal Research in the (fictional) city of New Stockholm, Delaware.
At the Academy, she received the proper training that allowed her greater control over her telepathic abilities. She also developed other abilities while at the Academy, such as psychokinesis, precognition, and telekinesis.
Celia is currently a member of the rag-tag team of extranormal vigilantes known as The Good Guys, where she is known by the name Psion.

This entry is “War Mage”. He comes from a long line of war mages, who have passed the magic and knowledge on through generations.

He has no loyalty to one nation.

Rachel Wilson was kidnapped by the Cult of Darkness to be sacrificed into the Plane of Darkness in order to summon a powerful shadow guardian to conquer the world. However, the summoned guardian killed the cultists instead and became Rachel’s protector. With the strength of fifteen men and the ability to morph its shape, the Shadowguard assists her in fighting crime.

I just made, posted, and named him Papa Voodoo on my ugo thread. He is a Voodoo Shaman, and I considered naming him Shaman, but Voodoo just popped. If it’s within’ the rules I’m going to enter him here as Papa Shaman, if not then oh well.
Here is my group, with the typical Archetypes; (Archetypical types?? :))
Paladin, High tech crime fighter with his trusty robo-steed;

#2 Warblade: Take his hat. I dare you!
http://members.cox.net/freethespam/warblade.html
Going to try and get in as many as I can. Just too many D&D Classes. Whatever happened to “Fighter”, “Magic-User”, “Thief”, and “GM’s kid sister”? 😀
ARTIFICER – After a freak accident, a medical researcher used experimental technology to preserve his life, but at the price of his own humanity. No longer fettered by quaint concepts such as morality, he now conducts grim and bizarre experiments on unwillingly subjects, sometimes in the pursuit of knowledge, sometimes just because.

#3 Soulknife: The Shuriken Slinging Super-heroine

This is actually a repost of my previous (and final) entry named: “Archdemonic Barbarian”, with just a little more blood/gore effects added… I hope it’s ok… 🙂

DREAD NECROMANCER – http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx260/hastur1/Hero_Machine/dread_necromancer.jpg
#4 Paladin (of Tyranny): Not a superhero, but a mecha. Still a D&D class… don’t think it counts for this contest. It’s actually based on one of my many unfinished books that I’ve been writing on and off for… some time now.

ATTENTION ALL VIEWERS AND MEMBERS OF HEROMACHINE!!!!
I have an offer that I wish to make. As a constant user of the heromachine games I have sarted to think that its about time that I create a new group of hero’s, a new “justice leauge” if you will. Its a group that plans to combine every hero ever created, Marvel, DC, Every hero, into a true legion of heros with only one mission… protect and save the universe from all evil! I already created the founding heros and a good ammount of members. But I dont want to leave anyone out… If any of you want to be a part of the Millenium Guard, contact my facebook, my E-mail, or go to my website dragonmage27.deviantart.com
And dont think I’m leaving out the villans, I’m Also creating and equally powerful evil organization to fight against the Millenium Guard. For the moment its still in development stages as the “Legion of Evil.” So if any of you want to ad some villans, just contact me.

My lone entry for this week: Paladin.

Well, I’m a bit of a latecomer to this one, and it’s been a long time since I’ve done one of these, but I thought it would be fun to fire the old engine up again. I’m gonna be doing a couple that nobody else has done yet. Firstly, here’s a modern-day Runepriest.

Here are an interesting combination: the Angakoks, originally wizards specializing in survival in harsh conditions, are now military and rogue scavenger personnel with similar specializations.

This is Thri-Kreen

Like the rest of his race, he is a fierce hunter and a faultless tracker. Although he hunts using what is classed as “conventional” weaponry and gear (including a modular hunting rifle,) he carries bio-weapons which are harmless to him, his fellow beings and the environment but deadly to enemy races as a way of saying “This bug has a lethal bite.”
The Paladin Of Hope.

in early adult hood his powers were to evolve not only would his powers work on animals but now beasts ,monsters and even hero’s
WEAPON:The Mason Blade
when finding that his powers had evolved he begins a quest on becoming literally the most powerful being in existence and for this merciless task he would need a merciless weapon
the mason blade crafted under the black magic of his tribesmen the mason blade is indestructible strong but incredibly light but his main weapon is the swords holster
which he had grafted to his spine in individual pins so that 1nce cutting his prey and holsters his sword the blood of the hunted shall mix with the hunter
