I did the accidental #5 to #1 pipeline. Which is pretty easy to do in DCC. I just rolled some amazing stats for a fighter, went "ok I'll be our muscles" and picked up an extremely powerful cursed sword.

The GM decided to buff the curse and actually make the demon inside it the main BBEG of the campaign after I took my first swing with it and one shot what was supposed to be a tough mini-boss for our party.
