"Turn your enemy's greatest fear against them and you'll own them." But the Kraken is ED'S greatest fear. He had a panic attack during the fuckery with the Dutch! Making himself the Kraken, wearing that mantle like armor to shield himself, to claim ownership over himself. After Izzy touching his face, saying "there he is", Ed must feel like he needs to redraw the boundary and stake his own claim. He is not Stede's, he is not Izzy's. He is the Kraken and he owns himself, because he became his own greatest fear
the kraken protects ed. it kills his dad and after he has his heart broken and the crew treat it like a fucking storytime (not your best fucking move, you guys, honestly) and izzy starts to creep in, bullying ed for being soft, the kraken comes out again. izzys just too cocky to realise how close hes dancing to the fire this time...
Ok but now I'm thinking about what classes some of the other characters would be 👀 Lucius is a bard, cause of course he is. Methinks College of Eloquence. Stedes tough, cause we don't really see him fight much, but my heart of hearts wants to say Rogue so he can be a Swashbuckler. Wizard (with Order of Scribes) is probably more accurate though. Jim is a Rogue Assassin, you can't change my mind. Izzy gives off fighter vibes so that's what I'm going with. For some reason I thought fighter had a duelist subclass, but I was wrong, so Champion? Buttons is a Warlock with a Fathomless patron, though I would also accept Circle of the Shepard Druid. That's all I can think of rn
Yeah, I'd say Whispers Bard for Frenchie. Izzy is a fighter for sure. There's no duelist subclass, but dueling is a option under the fighting style list. I'd actually say Lucius is a Light Cleric. He is always bringing things into the light, so to speak. He won't be shamed into the closet by Izzy and he won't let Ed be ignorant of Stede's feelings for him. And when Ed had a breakdown even Izzy knew Lucius was the one that could help him heal. Olu seems like a Devotion Paladin. He's a good guy and a good leader. Maybe Pyromancy Sorcerer for Wee John. Just because he likes arson. Not sure about the rest.
BlackBeard is def a Barbarian Stede is a Warlock Buttons is a Druid Lucius is a Bard Frenchie is a Bard Jim is Rogue Assassin Izzy is Fighter or Champion Olu is definitely a Devotion Paladin John is a Pyromancy Sorcerer
I actually assigned each OFMD character a class and race and never thought of barbarian, but it totally could fit! For Ed I initially had phantom rogue multi-classed with warlock of the fathomless and triton as his race. Phantom warlock because he is driven to violence by his fear of himself, the ghosts of what he has done and those he has inadvertently killed. Then the Fathomless Warlock is a direct representation of the Kraken and is more for taste than functionality! That being SAID…. now i kinda wanna see him as a storm herald barb + warlock of the fathomless 👀
Can you do one for Jim either being a monk or ranger and Stead as a wizard (he loves books and while he's not great at fighting, all it took for him to get the high society party to descend into chaos was a very quick game [switch the game with a spell and we're set]).
I'm actually almost done with jim's video!! I have them as a rogue assassin though, I never considered monk?? but I'm kind of obsessed?? I was struggling to figure out stede's class, but I'm v intrigued by wizard stede!!
I know it's been months but if you have any more dnd ofmd headcanons I'd love another video! even just a compilation of multiple characters and the dnd headcanons for them if they wouldn't be long enough to fit into one video!
@Layne Bee just found this channel! Jim next! Please do Jim! Most folks would default to assassin, but I say nay! They're 'okay' at assassinating, and not so great as a thief, but I say Ranger! (loner, not really into material wealth, heck of a fighter, disdains the amount of people in towns and such, and good at tracking). Usually not self-serving, respected amongst peers, and reliable in a fight.
This actually explained the appeal of playing a barbarian to me better than any other video I’ve seen
ahh me too
Yup, he just no greek as Léonidas.
Spartaaaaaaaa

It's very Batman isn't it?

Rogue for Jim makes a lot of sense, but consider... Oath of Vengeance paladin
Buttons can cast hex
this fanfic practicaly writes itself permission to use this idea?
I love the golf-audience clap after Ed punches Izzy. It fits so well, imagine MMA but they clapped like that instead lmao
Ohmygod what I wouldn't do to join a OFMD themed d&d campaign..
I think Navigavia is better suited for a campaign like that, check it out!
I’m practically running an OMFD style campaign and I didn’t even realize until I watched the show
me too.....i want a ofmd rpg so bad.
Edward is so dramatic for no reason oml 😭
tbh they're pirates. drama is part of the job description
Ed is in the midst of an identity crisis all throughout the season.
I CANNOT even handle how perfect this is 💀💀💀💀💀
A barbarian who loves the theatre! I’m here for it
"I enter rage to fight the snake!" Is my fav part. Most barb reaction. 😂
BlackBeard is def a Barbarian
Stede is a Warlock
Buttons is a Druid
Lucius is a Bard
Frenchie is a Bard
Jim is Rogue Assassin
Izzy is Fighter or Champion
Olu is definitely a Devotion Paladin
John is a Pyromancy Sorcerer
hmm. warlock stede??
With the info of S2, Wee John is also a bard.
For me it's the "Loser gets his head cut off! And the winner! GETS HIS FUCKIN' HEAD CUT OOFF!!!"
0:26 "oh c'moooooon. youre not a fool, youre hot topmewhosaidthat"
He’s not a barbarian, he’s a Viking vampire Clown pirate silly.

As a half-orc barbarian, this makes a lot of sense.
2:00 I'm so addicted to
someone please make a character sheet for him i would love to play this (i will not be doing this because i have 3 braincells)

I had not considered Stede as a wizard before, mostly because he's so useless most of the time, but wow, what a sudden change of mind!
I'm actually almost done with jim's video!! I have them as a rogue assassin though, I never considered monk?? but I'm kind of obsessed?? I was struggling to figure out stede's class, but I'm v intrigued by wizard stede!!
@@laynebee I feel like Jim fits quite a few classes, they'd probably multi-class.
I always thought stede was a cleric
wizard who changes to rogue and is terrible at it lmao
i know nothing about d&d but this makes perfect sense
I love this so fucking much the absolute DELIGHT I experienced when I checked out ur channel and saw there was mORE
Holy shit this fits so well :0
Thank you
This is the exact content I signed up for
I know it's been months but if you have any more dnd ofmd headcanons I'd love another video! even just a compilation of multiple characters and the dnd headcanons for them if they wouldn't be long enough to fit into one video!
four months on and I still stand by this tbh
This might be my favorite video on all.of TH-cam, haha.
Path of the storm herald
this is so fucking good
