 Why are new players so drawn to making edgelord characters?
Posted: 2026-01-06T20:30:48+00:00
Author: /u/worthlessbaffoonhttps://www.reddit.com/user/worthlessbaffoon

It’s a tale as old as time. A new player shows up to session one, bright eyed and bushy tailed, excited to play what they believe is the coolest character anyone has ever dreamed. You know the one, the half demon half angel warlock rogue, covered in belts, wielding a cursed jagged sword, dark hair that covers half of their face, a black cloak, a mask, and a pension for brooding in the corner and staring wistfully into the middle distance.

It’s not even that there’s anything inherently wrong with it. I feel like most ttrpg veterans would agree that it’s a tired and uninteresting trope, but that’s the beauty of D&D. You can play whatever kind of character you want to play.

I see and hear so many stories about them, and experience more than my fair share of them at the table with new players. I’m not without sin either; I’ve played my share of Edgelords. But my question is why? What is it about Edgelords that is so appealing to new players?

 For reasons, I need a Ye Olde Timey way of saying “Fat Man” and “Little Boy.” Yes the DM knows. Yes it’s giant pots of Alchemist’s Fire.

We tricked a pair of Silver Dragon Twins to drop them on Orc-Not Japan. Yes they deserve it.

Sorry to clarify. The twins are sworn to the defense of the island, this line of oaths goes back when the Orcs were seeking shelter from the Elves, and had no capacity to defend themselves at the time. They’re the descendants of the original swearer of the oath. Over generations the Orcs have become an Imperialist Expansionist power. And the Emperor has a bit of Dragonblood in him, but I digress. However the Silver Dragons were still sworn to their defense, irregardless to the damage the Orcs now cause. Yes this is a narrative but of being lawful vs being good in the setting.

We had them drop pamphlets last session demanding their surrender. They refused. Now we are giving them the same shape and weight of cargo, just with alchemist fire.

After falling in battle, Raphael, a devoted acolyte of Ilmater, found himself caught between life and death. In the depths of darkness, his unwavering will ignited a spark of radiant magic, allowing him to defy the very forces that claimed him. Reborn as a Revenant, he emerged from the abyss, eyes aglow with golden light and a newfound purpose. Raphael stepped back into the world determined to protect the innocent, avenge the fallen, and serve as a beacon of hope against the encroaching darkness.

 Our fighter got killed by a door
Posted: 2026-01-06T15:33:06+00:00
Author: /u/Lazy_Ease7574https://www.reddit.com/user/Lazy_Ease7574

I'm a new player, so is everyone else in the group. When exploring a nearby abandoned village to find jewelry and appease the terrifying banshee, we came across an old jewelry store. Now as a Rogue, I could have just lockpicked the door. But I wanted to see how the fighter of the group would handle it. So I let him solve it.

He kicked down the door.

Problem is, he rolled a Nat 1

So he hit the, mind you, decaying wooden door, and sprained his ankle. Since we were low from our previous fight with some orcs, he got knocked. By a door.

He's never gonna hear the end of this.

 [OC] The Vampire took his Colony, he'll now take the Vampire's Everything! - Grung Vampire Hunter Paladin
Posted: 2026-01-06T20:15:02+00:00
Author: /u/DubiousArtistehttps://www.reddit.com/user/DubiousArtiste

An old challenge that I'd like to do with friends on Discord is ask them to randomly generate a character and colour scheme for me to attempt to build into a character.
They gave me Grung, Paladin, Vampire Survivor and a mostly red palette with green and beige.

So here I present Mal the Vengeful.
Born in a fairly small but tight-nit group of Grung, he was destined to be a warrior. A guardian of his Caste and all those around him. He took his job seriously and looked down on anyone that half-assed their duties, regardless of importance.

One unfortunate day, nearby to his colony a Vampire made it's lair. The wildlife wilted, the air became cold, and it became nigh impossible for his Colony to survive. Losses were great and before long there was barely a handful of survivors. Realising that his colony may never recover, he swore revenge on the Vampire responsible and so has set out with Vengeance in his heart ready to face any monsters that might threaten those around them.

Side bit, I tried to go for an alcohol marker look on the art, but its a style that I'm still working at.
Let me know what you think! :D

 [OC] [ART] Drew a new outfit for my Shadow Monk!
Posted: 2026-01-06T14:58:22+00:00
Author: /u/Maximum-Tadpole7280https://www.reddit.com/user/Maximum-Tadpole7280

Merlin is my very dear monk for a campaign set in faêrun! I’ve been messing with his design quite a bit and decided to do a lil outfit for him that would be a bit more practical over the fancy one on the left.

The cloak is a homebrewed/flavoured version of the cloak of the bat (instead raven cloak!)

He’s a human? shadow monk 8/champion fighter 3. And honestly I can’t say it enough how much I adore him. The edgy design palette is very intentional but he’s not very edgy himself, just quieter and a bit sassy — the colors/vibes have a lot to do with his background and where he comes from :^]

Feel free to make assumptions about him or ask me questions! The campaign is soon going through a timeskip and I am ecstatic!!
