Playing a Rouge.

[rmnimoc]

I want to play a Rouge, but my DM demanded I justify such a weird choice, and explain how my character came into be, by RAW, because unless I can he refuses to have Rouges at all in his campaign setting.

So my question is:
Awaken sand mentions that "You awaken a region of sand, or similar material, to humanlike sentience." Is rouge a "similar material" to sand as per the awaken sand text, and what is the GP value of 15 sq ft of makeup?

[weckar]

If this is a joke, you told it perfectly. :smallsmile:

[rmnimoc]

I fail to see where you see the humor in wanting to play a huge construct capable of engulfing my enemies and giving them a bonus to disguise checks at the same time.

[weckar]

Unfortunately, most rouges are organic, not mineral. Those that are mineral are rocky, not granulated. So, no; Awaken Sand would not apply.

Wikipedia says that most modern rouges are talc based.

[weckar]

When it comes to rouge, I'll trust a woman over wikipedia. Even then: in its natural form talc is a rocky mineral.

[Callin]

So... animate object? Tiny Earth Elemental? Small Stone Golem?

OH OH OH you could bust it down to a sand like substance then then cast Awaken Sand on it...

I believe you need a feat to apply improvised materials.

[Biffoniacus_Furiou]

Depending on your starting level, you could play a Fiend of Possession (FF). That way you can possess and animate objects including noncontinuous objects at 5th level, such as a pile of rouge. You would have the physical stats of an animated object of up to colossal size, depending on how much rouge you can obtain. You can even add an extra +4 to those physical stats via Fiend of Possession, and also add magic item properties to your natural weapons for free.

Please tell me that the OP means rogue and everyone is just running with it. Because laughing my ass off and am kind of confused.

It's pretty clear that he intentionally used rouge, in order to tell a joke about playing as makeup. I feel bad for explaining things now. :smallfrown:

worry not eggynack, for you have spread wisdom in your killing of the joke, rarely has a joke been mercy killed for such a good reason...that said I'm disappointed, if you'd waited some of the responses to shylocke might have been hilarious.

[shylocke]

I'll consider the ruining my fault. I recognize my failing and shall strive to correct it.



In had to say something, one of my old friends( douchey kinda guy) was convinced rogue and rouge were the same thing and wouldn't shut up about it.

[shylocke]

Although if it were a serious question I would say you would count as a swarm.

Actually, I'm hoping someone can make a good Rouge build, maybe give it levels in Rogue. :smallamused:

It does look like a rather interesting concept.

That's one of the reasons I had to ask. I've seen quite a few strange characters played. Like chester, he was a treasure chest rogue.

[shylocke]

If you took swarm fighting, would the individual grains give the bonus? D20+several million?

[Red Fel]

If you had an animated mass of tinted powdery material that rebelled against its master, would that make it a rogue rouge? (Your pained groans are music to my ears.)

[Threadnaught]

Yes, but you're not being ambitious enough.


That could very well be the backstory, making it a rogue Rouge, but give it levels in Rogue and it becomes a rogue Rouge Rogue. Make it French (or whatever counts) and red and it becomes a rogue rouge Rouge Rogue.

This should be a thing. Seriously, I'm not kidding.


(Your pained groans are music to my ears.)

What pained groans? (Can you add more Rouge to that Rogue? Or make that Rouge more Roguish?)

[Callin]

Can it start out as an Awakened Rogue Eidolon.

A rogue rouge Rouge Rogue Rogue Eidolon.

[Kalaska'Agathas]

Yes, but you're not being ambitious enough.

But what if they were both a rogue Rouge, and a rogue Rogue? Then they'd be a rogue Rogue rogue Rouge! Add to that your previous suggestion and it'd become a rouge rogue Rogue rogue Rouge. Then add in levels of Red Wizard...

Actually, if you take levels in Wizard, you're probably getting a familiar. Which would have to be a Parrot. And we've officially drifted into another sketch.

Yes. Make it modern D20 and I will be Rouge, the rogue rouge rogue from Baton Rouge.

*ding* *ding* *ding* We have a winner!


I seriously have no idea how to top that.

[ericgrau]

I came in here to make fun of the OP but the OP beat me to it.

[gorfnab]

Scarlet Corsair may be worth looking into. Outlaw of the Crimson Road would also be worth a look if the DM allows 3.0 material.

[graeylin]

as embarrassing as this thread is, someone's cheeks should be red.

Almost as cool as my animated rake Rake.

[Slipperychicken]

This guy needs to team up with the Beguiler Beguiler/Beguiler and its Beguiler Beguiler familiar.

Also, rogue doesn't look like a word anymore. Now for the next few hours, I'll want to pronounce it as "row-goo". Thanks giantitp :smallbiggrin:

Oh my god that happened to me too :smallbiggrin: Glad I don't suffer alone.

Not beguiling enough. :smalltongue:

How about a rogue rouge Rouge rogue rouge Rogue/rogue Rouge/rogue Red Wizard from Rogueport, Rougenia? :smallamused:


Ahh my eyes. It hurts to read that.

Same here.

And a Blue (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/psionic/monsters/blue.htm) Meldshaper from Azure City.

And a Blue (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/psionic/monsters/blue.htm) Meldshaper from Azure City.

A sad Blue Meldshaper from Azure City who in his spare time performs slow jazz.
A blue blue-eyed Blue from Blueberg playin' the blues.
He and the rogue Rogue/Red Wizard rouge Rouge from Thay will get along fine.

Also purple, somehow.

[Elxir_Breauer]

Those would both go along GREAT with the Awakened Rust Monster, Mimic Rogue, and Awakened Gelatinous Cube Swashbuckler (not entirely sure how that would work, but it's not MY webcomic, lol)! I might have to allow these in a game sometime...

You're hit by a Flesh to Stone (Caster chooses Talc)
Talc is ground down and died red
Stone to Flesh


I think that you would be dead at this point, but being alive wasn't a requirement.

There's possibly also a variant of the psionic sandwich trick you could use.

However you do it someone is going to end up with a red face.

How about a rogue rouge Rouge rogue rouge Rogue/rogue Rouge/rogue Red Wizard from Rogueport, Rougenia? :smallamused:

And as a rogue/rogue, I can sneak attack my sneak attack! (http://www.nuklearpower.com/2009/01/27/episode-1087-exalted-feat/)
