Liking dragon people doesn't make you a furry. The proper term is scalie.

BRUH DRUIDS CAN BECOME OWLBEARS?!?

I mean I know the Druid in the recent movie did, but I didn't know this game would let me lol

As always in these kind of games, you'll be rewarded if you play a combination that maxes out your combat effectiveness while also maxing out your social skills. Sorcerer is the way to go for the magically inclined, Paladin for the non-magical.

Dragonborn are among the more interesting-looking races. If you like the pretty shiny dragon people go for it.

As far as class goes, it depends on what you're going for. A combat monster? Sorcerer is good, especially dragon blooded. But think about going with a bard too. They're great for support but can also be decent in combat with 3 Warlock levels just to get Pact of the Blade so you can use whatever weapon you want, and of course Eldritch Blast (recommend the class perks that cause knockback and extra damage). Mostly though Bard gives you access to some hilarious dialogue options and Speak with Animals, which expands the available quest options. They're also good with any combo of companions, so you can pair up with a warrior, mage, and thief to have all the bases covered.

also Bae'Zel best girl <3

Do not kill minthara, the drow in the camp. Kmock her out. She will be a hilariously evil companion.

I loved doing a hippie Paladin. Nature-defender kinda guy, forced by the gods to protect nature or his oath will be broken. Forces you into funny scenarios

You have a feathersona. I think it's time to accept it.

College of Swords bard is fun, especially for a ranged build.

Personally, I went with a gnome Open Hand monk with the Tavern Brawler perk because Improvised Weapon and Throw are too hilarious not to abuse, especially when you barely come up to most opponents' kneecaps. To that end, kneecaps are a weakness, and I exploited them.

Edit: At any rate, I highly recommend picking a class or race that has access to Speak With Animals. Talk to ALL the cats!

I like that the game opens with body horror worm, delightfully devilish

Does a druid Dragonborn make any sense lore-wise?

Doing a selunite run while persuing shadowheart as a romantic interest is pure comedy

githyanki get a bonus action teleport for free

the lucky feature for halfings is very strong and i think stacks with the lucky feat

one of the dwarves can go invisible which is overpowered

dark urge is fun

martial classes are very strong and fun

charisma is also really strong

If you're deadset on picking dragonborn, bear in mind that red dragonborns get bonus relationship points with Laezel.

My favourite race picks are githyanki and lolthsworn drow though:

Lolthsworn drow get a bunch of unique dialogue options early on that can allow you to skip some combat encounters (although there are also a coupla situations where it's flipped and you've gotta talk normally peaceful NPCs down from fights).

Githyanki starting proficiencies give you a bunch more defensive options for non-martial classes. They also have a lot of unique dialogues.

Heyyy I JUST started bg3 too! I made my character a githyaki bard but then changed my class to a githyaki fighter specializing in 2 handed weapons. High strength, health, and charisma. I’m having a lot of fun with it, basically a sword lesbian roleplay (it’s barely a roleplay lol I’m just being me).

Just wanted to say you can re spec! But you can’t change your race unless you make a new character. You can also adjust your characters look very easily from the beginning of the game so don’t get toooo hung up on it

Did u give your character a massive ass

My favorite character in table top and bg3 is halfling wild magic sorcerer, charlatan (or gambler) background. Can recommend if you don’t mind accidentally dying to bad rolls.
