Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves
Marvel’sEternalsboasts a big cast of superheroes with a varying array of ability thatcould even dispute the Avengers . Their diversity in personality and motivations , as well their various skills and approaches to combat resembles that of a D&D adventuring party .
This raises the doubt , if the Eternals rolled up a D&D effort , what class would each most jibe into ? Whether it be due to the mechanics or the spirit of the year , there is one that suits each member skilful .
Ajak - Cleric
Ajak is ab initio the sassy leader of the mathematical group , guiding them on their mission to protect world . She is the only one who can commune with the Celestial , Arishem , who is essentially a god to the Eternals or at least the closest thing they have to one . Likewise , the Cleric grade in D&D has a strong connectedness to the divine power of gods . This coupled with her power to heal make her well suited to the classic idea of a D&D Cleric , as she offers physical support in struggle , and spectral support outside of battle .
Phastos - Artificer
Artificer is a more recent accession to 5e but an obvious choice for Phastos , as both apply intelligence operation as their primary ability . An Artificer use a mix of legerdemain and cleverness to contribute offence , defense and utility , both in and out of armed combat , and can even work magical D&D particular . Phastos being able to quickly put together machinery for whatever he needs in the consequence lines up perfectly with the feel of what an Artificer brings to a D&D party . And , what he does inEternalsis easily emulated by peck a Battlesmith or Artillerist subclass , although the latter seems more against his lesson as he is oppose to the destruction his munition can cause .
Thena - Fighter
There ’s an argument to be made that Thena should be a Warlock with the Pact of the Blade feature article , as she can summon her weapon at will . However , Thena ’s fundamental ability is her art in physical combat , which is also at the magnetic core of what D&D Fighters do . Similar to Fighters , she appear to have technique with every weapon , as well as the tactical awareness for when and how to utilize them . If one were to emulate what Thena is capable to do they could even take up the Eldritch Knight subclass , as they can summon their weapon system at will .
Gilgamesh - Barbarian
When a business firm - sized deviant approaches , Gilgamesh ’s method acting commonly involves casually stride up to it , and laying it out with a well - wound haymaker . He ’s no - nonsense and unproblematic ; he hit intemperately , and he can get come to hard . Frontliner that he is , Gilgamesh would believably work best as either Fighter or Barbarian .
However , he does n’t have the trained tactical prowess of a Fighter , and though he ’s always lay back and does n’t rage , his major power comes more from the cutting enduringness and ability to tank hits offered by Barbarian . It ’s a close call but it seems Barbarian is what accommodate Gilgamesh well .
Makkari - Monk
Makkari , as played by Lauren Ridloff , play speed to the adventuring party , so it ’s important to incur a course in D&D that offers the same utility . In terms of mobility , the best choice in D&D are the Rogue or the Monk , as both gain the power to dash as a bonus action . However , the sneaking and stabbing playstyle of a Rogue seem less in character for her , whereas Monk offers somewhat more mobility , as well as the power to attack multiple times apace , which seems to be Makkari ’s preferable combat style .
Druig - Sorcerer
Druig is a unmanageable one to place , as there ’s no particular stratum in D&D whose core talk to Druig ’s power of aggregated handling . However , flavor - knowing he falls more in line with a Sorcerer , as his ability seems to happen innately for him , rather than requiring any variety of external faith or study that the other classes in D&D require . The Aberrant Mind Sorcerer , with an expanded spell leaning that includes “ Calm Emotions ” as well as the power to switch out for Enchantment charm from other family magical spell lean , seems most suited to Druig ’s toolkit .
Sprite - Bard
Sprite is the Eternals ’ resident physician storyteller , spinning the tales that become the myths by which humanity knows these strange , celestial - born spacefarers . Bard , being a class that educe their power from operation and storytelling , seems to be the obvious choice for her in terms of tone .
In terms of power , Sprite ’s contribution to the team is being an illusionist , fooling her enemies with tricks of ignitor . To that conclusion , the Bard spell list , which is largely comprised of illusion conjuring trick , seems a snug scene for this Eternal .
Kingo - Warlock
In combat , Kingo does well while ride out at mountain range and rain deviants from afar . While Ranger is the division well love for stayingat range , Kingo does n’t quite vibe with the savour of " outside hunting watch " that Ranger proffer . Kingo ’s cosmic muscularity projectiles definitely have a more magical look to them , similar to the Eldritch Blast cantrip available to Warlocks -arguably one of the best D&D cantrips available . There are even Warlock builds in D&D that revolve whole around improving the Eldritch Blast cantrip . Additionally , Charisma being the elemental ability of this class also work well for the Bollywood execute movie star Eternal .
Sersi - Wizard
Sersi ’s electric discharge is about discovering her raw untapped potential . At first glance she appear to function close to a Sorcerer , as her abilities seem to add up innately from her . But , there ’s not much offered by the Sorcerer ’s core or subclass that seems to fall in line with her big businessman of transmutation . Wizard , however , seems like it could extend more for her . In terms of personality , Sersi is propel more by a enchantment with examine human culture ; she even start the movie as a instructor at a shoal . On top of that , her ability to control and change affair is more intellectual , and could be emulated well with a School of Transmutation Wizard .
Ikaris - Paladin
One way to discover Ikaris ’ motive inEternals , in D&D terms , would be “ Lawful . ” And there is nothing quite so lawful in D&D as the classical archetypal Paladin . Typically a Paladin gets their power from a exacting code they bond to , and as is revealed in the moving-picture show , Ikaris adheres strictly to the mission set out for them by the Celesital , Arishem , to the point where he is willing to change state on his mate for it . His cosmic energy eye beams could even be see as akin to the radiant equipment casualty from the Paladin ’s “ Smite ” feature , albeit a more ranged variant . Like a Paladin , Ikaris is all around stiff and able to take damage , while being capable to output powerful bursts of wrong .
