What would your build be?

I wrote 112 Handbooks, a frickin' encyclopedia, about d20 3.0/3.5 FOR FUN. I define power gamer.
So I'd be your basic min-maxed Erudite Eidoloncer

(Note —there is a “system”, there are abilities, skills, and stuff; no classes though. But there is no screen. A instinct feeling interaction with the system.)
No Classes? Huh...

Okay. I assume I get to pick my race.
I'll be a Pathetic (int-reduced), Vernal Unseely, magic-blooded, primordial half-giant with the bloodlines of Titan (major), Air Elemental (intermediate) and Celestial (minor), reincarnated Ghost who had been hit with a warp blade until I died, with all the extra limbs granted by the warp touch disease removed and replaced with construct limbs (because can you have too many natural attacks?), although if I get lucky enough to have a snake growing out of my chest, I'll keep that for the extra natural attack. Also I would eat a lump of corrupted flesh, grow a second head out of my left shoulder, then slap a helm of opposite alignment on it so it becomes Lawful Good, thus allowing me to dual cast.

And as long as I get to pick the race/body, I'd put a Cerebral hood on my chest snake's head so it can mind blast and shit. Definitely some psionic sinew implants in any remaining organic limbs. A tongue worm that I would make my familiar so I can use glory tongue to have it grow out to 100' for touch attacks. At least one envenerating arm, Silthilar bones, of course, a golden dancing pegleg, Spike stone implants under my skin, feathered wings (incase the warp blade didn't give me any.)

And to top it all off, HUMANOID SKIN, because I'd want to cover up what a horribly disfigured monstrosity I became by hiding in the skin of someone else that I can BURST OUT OF when I want to go whole hog, otherwise, I look perfectly normal, including covering up my extra head and chest snake.

Abilities would be focused on extra actions and movement. Skills would be geared towards spamming attacks and crafting. "Stuff" would be the systematic exploitation of the system and improvements to my ever increasing list of immunities and defenses.

Then I'd start off by systematically testing my "instincts" until I could mathematically quantify the system, determine its strengths and weaknesses, and if there were any feedback loops that gave me unlimited power. Then...


I WOULD BREAK THE SYSTEM FOR DARING TO TAKE ME AWAY FROM THIS WORLD WITHOUT MY CONSENT.

I WOULD CRUSH EVERYONE IN THAT REALITY AND TURN THE PLANET INTO A CHARNEL HOUSE OF HORROR BEFORE I FINALLY FOUND WHOEVER WHAT STUPID ENOUGH TO DRAG ME AWAY FROM THE ONES I CARE ABOUT.

THEY WOULD RUE THE DAY THEY FIRST HEARD OF THE ELDRITCH GOD.

I WOULD INFLICT SUFFERING UPON THEM OF SUCH MAGNITUDE THAT THEIR PAIN WOULD BECOME A LEGEND IN HELL LONG BEFORE I FINALLY SEND THEM THERE.

I WILL DESTROY EVERYTHING THEY EVER CREATED. KILL EVERYTHING THEY EVER LOVED. THEN MAKE SURE THEY ARE FORGOTTEN.

THEY WILL PERISH LEAVING EXISTENCE UNWEPT, UNKNOWN, AND UNSUNG.

Okay buddy, take this icy and go to the corner. That edge is getting a little too edgy

Big eyed healer girl then gotcha.
With 12 husbands constantly going off to war and six children. They'll always have at least one dad hanging around to take care of them, but the biological father of each one is a secret.

oh, it's easy. since you said we're just getting pulled there, I'd be a special class known as "Dead". I've got severe health issues. there's a reason I stopped working - it put too much strain on my body and I was tired of being hospitalized 2-3 times a week.

That said, I know you said we are who we are right now, but *if* I were reincarnated, I'd do my best to become a spellsword. sure, it may be weaker on both spells and swords than dedicated classes, but it offers SOOOOOO much more versatility. I've always been a solo player, so any class that lets me solo is my jam.

Yep, if no changes were made, I'd join you in that special class. Extreme depression doesn't help with survival at all. Nor do the other health issues, but those aren't as bad for me. Another reason healer is an excellent choice -- can fix yourself.

As another member of the health-problems-and-stuff group, I assume I'll get killed off by something or other before the day's over. So. Later on, a nice passing necromancer can reanimate me. Then I can be a skeleton! I like skeletons. They never get tired, which is awesome. I'll work hard and rise through the skeleton ranks—probably along the mage path so I can eventually evolve into something cool like a lich. (It's not one of those super traditional worlds where skeletons don't get to evolve into liches, is it? That would be sad. The old-fashioned sacrifice-a-thousand-people-in-a-dark-ritual route to lichdom doesn't sound nearly as fun....)

Guess I'm racing against the clock to learn Transmutation Magic so I can transition to my real body before my natal one or my brain on PleaseKillMe kills me.

(My current coping mechanism is bleeding my heart out on digital paper, which I can't well do once yoinked. Also I swear to Heavens if this System tries to force me to choose between transition and magic I will delete it)

I may be able to help you with that just read this book... Don't mind the eyes or tentacles they're supposed to be there.

Gateways with a side of explosives. I'll just come back to Earth because I don't want to wipe my ass with pinecones or communal sponges.

(THIS IS WHO YOU ARE CURRENTLY. ELDRITCH GOD I HAD TO ADD THIS FOR YOU. Yes you can get abilities or race change, but you wake up as you are as of right now. So unless one of you is secretly a main character, you’re a basic bitch human. You gotta work hard if you wanna become, what ever Eldritch god spewed)
(Since you are not all getting it. You did not get reincarnated, and there is no, just look at the bottom of my post. So you kinda just got there)


What would your build be?


I would personally be a brawler (No set weapon), or a speed focused gunslinger with shotgun (Finally my hobbies will be of use! Smithing.)


The place your reincarnated is a wild world, and closes your getting to civilization is a alien-race in a tribe. A whole lot of untouched natural land. So a American’s/English wet dream, free land.

I just want a crafting skill, basically anything I create unlocks new things. First thing I make is charcoal, next ammonia and finally some magnesium and saltpeter
