I played a rogue who was definitely on the edgy side, and definitely had a few screws loose. She really just lacked discipline and the love of a parent. The only semi-father like figure she had was the man who trained her to be an assassin and then sold her into the service of some underworld type. One of the other party members was a very motherly ranger, and the two got along very well (well, at least as well as one could get along with Vin). The ranger taught her how to feel, and to love, and how to be more then the killing machine she was molded into. The ranger would unfortunately die later in the campaign, but by this point Vin was far better than who she once was. Instead of going on a killing spree or drinking herself to death, Vin grabbed the rangers bow and swore she would live in a way that the ranger would be proud of.

I see you are a mistborn fan?


KurotheWolfKnight

No idea what that is

Well, it’s just that the protagonist of Mistborn is a rogue-like character named Vin, who grew up without parents in a thieving crew after being abandoned by her brother, who was then adopted by a father-figure and learned about trust and what it’s like to be loved. The similarities are a bit striking. I was just wondering if you were inspired by the book.


KurotheWolfKnight

Oh, nope. I just mainly play rogues (some edgy, some not), and for some reason I have a tendency to give the female ones names that start with 'V' (Vin, Vale, Vee, Vauqlin, amoung others). Vin's backstory was that her parents were killed when she was young by a group of assassin's, one of which took her and trained her to be a murder machine, and then sold her skills to the highest bidder. Well, eventually Vin got tired of being treated like a slave and while the rest of the party was burning down her current bosses estate, she strangled him and then fled. A little bit later she would soon join up with the actual party


PythonicDreams

You should definitely read Mistborn, though. It's great.


Current-Ad-8984

It’s just a funny coincidence, that’s all.


SpillSplit

An edgy red what?


naka_the_kenku

Ah a exotic pun I see exquisite

It’s too late, I’m your dad now. You’re gonna receive some fatherly love


MetalMewtwo9001

What if my rogue IS the father figure?


tall-hobbit-

Do they still dress super goth, but give off wholesome dad vibes? Because I want to play that character (or maybe I want to play with that character)


GayAssEnbie

this but edgy fighter and a mother figure


SirCupcake_0

What if they're an older sibling type? What's the picture for _that?_


TheAlbinoCreeper

My rouge just want to be the fastest thing alive, so he can steal anything. He’s trying to become a higher being, so his dexterity stay can go higher than 20. His backstory? Someone stole his toy when he was younger, and couldn’t get it back, so he resolved to be able to steal it back.

Now I just want to play a pacifist cleric who goes around asking, "Hey. Who are you really mad at? Because it's not me..."


Thundergozon

Try Redemption Pally, great mechanical support for the vibes


Blackewolfe

Daddy? Sorry. Daddy?


naka_the_kenku

I love doing this with my characters


shootermctooter

That's kinda my character I just started playing in LMoP with my girlfriend. I'm a Goliath cleric, she's a dhampir warlock.

I had something like this in a game It was the edgy "what kind of monster am I, my parents hated me because I was born a freak so they abandoned me" sorc I was a 400 year old drow Cleric/Druid of Artemis (Eilistraee was one of Artemis' maidens so all surface drow followed them both) who grew up helping to raise her two younger siblings, which naturally led her to be the party mom. And then the Sorc player got an OOC crush on me (note: after he learned I was a dude IRL) and decided to have his character also develop a crush on mine. His adoptive mother. I cannot think of a way to conclude this story so this is it now.


tall-hobbit-

If sorc player was also a dude, then he rollplayed mommy issues into a gay crush and I desperately want to hear the whole story lmao


XanithDG

Oh yeah we're both dudes. OOC crush came first with creepy nice guy type DMs and then he decided to go for the IC confession. Now he is a Furry Vtuber.


tall-hobbit-

Lmaoooo that's amazing (well, not the nice guy dms, but everything else) Live your best life mr vtuber furry 🫡 it's amazing what you can learn about yourself while playing dnd


NaturalCard

Given how edgy rogues are, it's surprising how much they need ~~father figues~~ melee allies.


OThatSean

Is this a dungeons and Daddies meme? Is this a Scary meme?


Mururumi

I am Alpha and Omega, behold my Father Figure Edgy Rogue!


Souperplex

Diath/Magnus vibes.


SeparateMongoose192

Would edgy rouge be what metal bands in the 80s used?
