The above link is to the official Old Spice created Gentleman/Gentle-lady class. Though it was create recently (2018), it seems to be a 3.5 class. I think the idea is both hilarious and somewhat interesting, and was hoping to get help converting it to 5e.

Would love general thoughts on the class as well!

The outfit on page 1 is a crime against fashion and needs to be stopped.

I thought this was a pretty funny stunt. I was surprised it wasn't 5e.

'Old' Spice indeed.

A few things.


I had a good laugh.

I sort of now want to see a set of 'Old Spice' archetypes for each class. Because every class should have their own unique and manly/womanly charm.

I now need to at least create and play a character as suave and classy as Mustafa. Just fluff whatever actions I take as absolutely awesome/insane/advertising Old Spice.

Now I really wanna play the Gentleman's Gentleman, Barney Stinson. Almost everything fits already!
Gentleman's code - check.
Catchphrase - check. "It is gonna be legen - wait for it - dary!" (sometimes with some stupid saying mixed in like "It is gonna be legen - wait for it and I hope you aren't lactose intolerant because it contains - dary!").
Sharp dressed suit as armor - check.
Proficient in all weapons, including "lazer based weapons if they were around" - check. He was a master at laser tag too.
Punchline - check (too many to count, actually)
And the list goes on. I really hope someone does convert this to 5th.
Oh, and to really be Barney, I'd have to replace one of his class skills with "I Know A Guy" - once per day you can call "your guy" to grant advantage on any one skill or ability check.
