Once played a barbarian who told everyone they were a wizard. They practiced time magic, and using their magic staff (great hammer), they took the very years of life away from their victims.
Had a bard companion who would advise people against telling him he’s not casting spells, he’s just hitting people very hard, as that enrages him and he goes into a “casting rage”
Awww, kinda sorry to see the kimono parted here, I liked thinking it was some half human half beast monstrosity from beyond this world that happened to have 8 limbs in addition to a lion head.
Still, great boss fight and wonderful design and music.
