I ADORE the idea of a Boy Scout ranger who is only barely legally allowed to be roaming around with the party and are desperate to collect all their badges, it could make for such a unique character with very specific and memorable quirks. “Do you think this qualifies me for my Treasure Hunting Badge even though we weren’t really hunting for it?” “You’ll okay if I kill you so I can get my Resurrection Badge, right?” “I really need to save up my money so I can buy an artifact and get my Destroyed a Magical Item badge”
For my idea, I offer a Knowledge Cleric whose study of Maths and Physics lead to them engaging in Number Worship and using their understanding of numbers to momentarily change physics.
One of the best places to look for modern setting characters is the Dresden Files novels. Form a party with a Private Eye Wizard, a Dad Jeans Paladin, a Sex Addict Vampire Rogue, a Ghost Whisperer Author Bard, and a Medical Examiner named Butters who has no class features but was created by the DM because no one took computers as a tool proficiency.
I feel like something people need to keep in mind is that with Modern D&D, there's a lot to consider before you can even bring it to the table, like, you have two options, Magic doesn't exist in high amounts for the public, or, Magic is everywhere, because if Magic is Low Fantasy, then half casters or Artificer would be more common but even a small amount of real and true Magic would absolutely and irrevocably change our society in its development, because even with the existence of cantrips, lighters and the like become worthless, because cantrips aren't typically presented as something hard to learn, stuff like that is Magic a public secret? the only signs of such being biological quirks like Dragonborn and Elves? do Dragons still exist? Have Trolls been scripted as soldiers? are Changelings spies? Every society is a battle for resources, so learning to use the ones they have is a big move, this includes magic and magical creatures, like, Magic being common would even affect the lowly farmer with Plant Growth
I feel like unless you're a dedicated writer, the amount of consideration needed to rewrite societies like that is often too much for DMs to handle. Even in classic DnD, magic should have heavily advanced the state of the world much faster compared to ours.
I think my favorite thing to do in modern settings is to play with subclasses, and Unsleeping City did this really well. Sofia is probably my favorite example within the party.
with modern specializations, I imagine multiclassing for specific careers is not just a good idea but a necessity. Barbarian bard - motivational speaker and rockstars, you want to rile someone up, you pull them in with charisma like a bard, then you pump them up by activating rage. Bard Artificer - industrial designer, architect, basically all cars, buildings, and UIs are going to be made by the bard artificer Artificer Fighter/Monk - "the skilled blue collar" probably the most in demand class combo. since this is the best class for skilled labor, they have a lot of artificer's skill with building stuff but their higher physical ability means they can work a lot more demanding physical labor Druid Fighter - "the skilled farmer" the 2nd most in demand class, this is the "large scale farm" defait Barbarian Wizard - the modern day "rage mage" aka. the "guy you call when you need things done ASAP and bureaucracy is in the way".
I always had this idea of a modern day alternate history country being thrusted into a Dimensional Merge of sorts; realities and universes haphazardly blending in together in a variety of ways. Here these explorers would venture into the unknown, looking for answers to the merge.
One of my go-to DnD settings is a modern college town where the players can access a magical otherworld: the collective unconscious. There, they find Dread Domains, the manifestations of corrupt institutions, and must defeat the shadows of the evil Dark Lords to break their supernatural control over said institutions. It's basically Persona 5 x Van Richton's Guide: The Mists Over Corvishire
Love this! I’m wanting to run a modern game after watching unsleeping city based in my hometown. You should do a video about modern monsters and boss fights.
A Lore Bard that studies all kinds of fighting styles and random facts or processes or medical practices, ect. A walking "X for Dummies" character whose Bardic Inspiration is just explaining how to do something or do something better. Sort of like The Librarian movie series too. Monks and tabaxi (and tabaxi monks) being bike delivery people also make a lot of sense, given the speed boosts they get.
An idea for a modern dnd type campaign maybe be a kid who’s playing in the street/park. Or like instead of adventurers people who fight monsters are like animal control and stuff?
Just to add on to a few things already stated; The Arcane Golfer Fighter. Carries a bunch of enchanted golf balls around to make ranged attacks. An Oath of Vengeance Paladin vigilante who rides his trusty "steed", an infernal motorcycle, around town to smite evildoers. And for some reason I like the idea of a Wizard struggling to pay 300 dollars to download a fireball spell, while an Arcane Trickster Rogue simply downloads their spells illegally and can even hack spellphones to steal spells.
Pact of the mega corporation warlock where you are bound to the position as a personal trouble shooter of a demon proprietor or the new intern that get more power as you climb the ranks as an employee.
@@TheClericCorner exactly like big companies sometimes have eyes everywhere maybe even a pact with a loan office your debt is literally giving you better credit and reputation and power!
I was making a warlock subclass with this concept in mind for a modern Fantasy game, definitely going to incorporate some of these cool ideas into it. My warlock pact had you as the unlucky soul who made a deal with an otherworldly megacorp and got a lot of power for it at the quite literal expense of an insurmountable amount of debt that gets added to every time you use their magic. The more money you make the more they value you and give you more power of course with the promise that once you've paid off your debt you get to keep your powers (spoilers you could never reasonably pay it off)
For some reason, I think of Fighter concept of a rash delinquent or young punk with a baseball bat, lol. Love the video and concepts in the video and in the comments! 🤗👍
Saw my comment at the beginning. One idea for a bard or cleric would be psychologist. Really wish the fantasy version would have something tied to that so I could use my degree in game.
I always find these settings trickier to make something for just because of all the options. The first time I had to, I ended up going with a Jock character just because I figured I'd do the opposite of me irl. I played them as a shapeshifter for a World of Darkness (Changeling) game.
Thanks for this, it was really helpful and one of the good ones. Modern Ranger idea, someone from the antiquety conclave covering vast land masses with archeological sites and historical significance, with underwater monuments of past civilizations, in the heart of the wild where no roads lead. Keeper of secret locations and stories, respectful admirer of natures' cradle. 🤓
I was going to play a campaign in a victorian setting and my caracter was going to be the son of a nobleman, whose parents where grooming for the political lifestile. I made him a Cholege of Eloquence bard, justifying that his parents would want him to have those skills oratory skills (and knowing swordplay and music is associated with the nobility). So yeah, I stand by the politician bard, although your ideas where very cool, specially the lawyer bard.
Those who worked with Steve Jobs say he a had a "Reality Distortion Field" where he could make apparently-impossible tasks seem possible, whether you wanted him to or not.

Your down on your luck digging through a trash pit for anything that might sell for some cash or that would feed you. You would be happy with either right now. You find unique and ornately decorated cylindrical metal vessel depicting a scene of mountains and green grass lands around it with a strange tab on the top, it sounds as if there is liquid inside you pull the tab a loud pop hiss sound comes from it along with smoke. This instinctually and briefly frightens you so you toss the item. Once it lands a being that resembles a Middle Aged Human man with a 5 day unshaven face of light brown and white whiskers shortish brown hair thin and lanky arms covered in what looks like grease and oil stains an off white sleeveless tunic of a strange make with an odd stain or two Emerges with a stretch and yawn slack jawed, dark baggy eyes and an ethereal cloud where legs would normally be. He looks at you and says "welp I'spose You gunna do".
my favorite modern character was in my own setting when a friend ran it. i was a Warlock televangelist who straight up defected to demons after getting tired of forking over all the money they got to the god she preached for
Currently watching this because I randomly remembered some art I saw of a bird person mail man and wanted to make an Aarakocra mail man/delivery boy, and dont know what class would best match that profession, lol.
@@TheClericCorner Oh that could be interesting. Beast Master, Swarm Keeper, Horizon Walker all sound like interesting options for this idea, then. Either a trained beast that helps rush through the city streets, a swarm that flits about to multiple mailboxes as you soar past, or just super fast and even teleporting through crowds for shortcuts.
A lot of athletes including football players, footballers AKA soccer players or wrestlers would make ideal barbarians. A frat boy would an amazing one. For Rogue, I had an idea of a swashbuckler who is former criminal turned white hat hacker. He uses social engineering to get thing. The Paladin is his friend/ handler.
I've been a little leery of the whole "modern D&D" setting, but these are some great character ideas. I'd love to see another video of setting ideas and adventure hooks for a modern D&D setting.

@@TheClericCorner Honestly, a bit of both! Like, if you're in New York (or an equivalent large city) are there dungeons in the non urban areas, or do you stick to sewers and subway tunnels? Are there states with lots of dungeons? Maybe even dungeon tourism? Are there places with large monster populations that need to be kept in check? Like maybe herds of minotaur in Texas or swamps full of bullywugs, lizard folk, and zombies in New Orleans? All of this I'm approaching from a "Modern Fantasy world" perspective, and not a "Modern World where secretly there is magic."
@@travisshallenberger9486 anything can be a dungeon, there's sewers and subway tunnels, but you can also use abandoned buildings, there's plenty to break up sight lines, plus it offers unique ways to offer alternative paths and combat opportunities
I wonder how the blood hunter would fit into this setting? bounty hunters or shady government agents? I homebrewed a Big man on campus/ jock paladin subclass which I named oath of the playmaker (oath of community for medieval games) whose whole gimmick is the big charismatic friendly character whose a team player/ leader who is pulling attacks from monsters to protect or buff the party whereas on the offensive side they were able to control the battlefield with long-range AoE spells, and super speed with an additional 60ft of movement by the time they were level 17 (90 feet movement and 90 feet dash action plus hasted action dash is scary)
A Warlock multiclass sounds so insidious now. The naive Sorcerer who dreams of stardom is approached by a seedy representative from "Hollywood" who says she only needs to sign the dotted line to make her dreams come true.

Or how about... don't play dnd if you want a modern setting? I mean, It's not the only ever system out there to exist. DnD doesn't have to be an everything simulator idk why people are trying to make it that.
@@TheClericCorner Yeah... you really have nothing to say except a facepalm emoji... honestly, that's the moment I stopped really liking you.

What you're doing is cutting a car in half and rebuilding it from scratch when you could've just used a motorcycle.
@@d4n737Not really at the end of the day dnd is just anorher d20 system. It can run any setting theme it wants quite easly. Be you runing stone age, "moden" age or Asian Cyberpunk it has all the building blicks for it there. Only problems that WoTC has no intrest for expanding out of the medeval (and space fantasy now I guess) themes making it necesary for dm and comunity to reskin and homebrew a bit.
Luckily comunity has done lot's of work to acomidate thise themes if one wishes to go bit deeper than just reskin. Like 'Modern Handbook v3.0' by AeronDrake if you want to do modern day. And best of all it is a free in depth reasorce made entierly by comunity for comunity. Even if dnd is not the best system for it out of the box it is not incapable to go exotic. Really it can acomedate any setting as long as DM is intedning to go somwhat RP and dowtime loose and Combat strict. (And even that can be fixed if one digs a little to see what system addons comunity has cooked up if one dose not wana hombrew it all)
@@piens51 Honestly this is just a mentality thing, but why do you now want to play anything new? It's actually BAD that DnD has a monopoly on everything. One brand having a monopoly in any field is bad for the business. You want an "Everything simulator"? Play FATEcore. It's kinda easy to clown on people who modify the Dragons to make it fit where it doesnt belong. You want a setting that's a candy land? Sure. Dark fantasy, high fantasy, sky-world? Okay, cool. But there's a limit to everything, at some point you just have to let go of reskining and stop being afraid to step out of your comfort zone. Tl;dr Just because you can doesn't mean you should
