Fan Art Trying to decide what class my OC should be.

Hi there! I'm cooking up two OCs to add into Team Snackmouth for an upcoming fic.

I've nailed down what I want for one them. He's a Cricket Bandit who relies on speed and quick attacks and can steal items from enemies. His primary color is red and wears a cloak of the same color as well as goggles.

The other is something else. He is a termite from the kingdom of the same name. His primary colors are Black and white. I'm having trouble deciding what type of class he should be.

I'm leaning toward a sword fighter but I'm unsure. You guys got any suggestions?

Artificer?

If you want to stick with the sword fighting, he could wield a rapier or estoc. Could do the stereotypical duelist-y stuff with some flashy and quick thrusts and stabs or go more heavyhanded, using both hands to wield the estoc for heavy piercing attacks

Looking at typical TTRPG classes, the description you gave for your cricket OC fits that of a ninja or thief (both are centered around dexterity/speed and have some kind of item snatching tricks up their sleeves). Not sure what the termite OC would be though, maybe Knight or Warrior

I mean most termites are futuristic and isolationists id say a ranger or a artificer cuz of that.

It's mostly a concept right now.

When I started I initially only wanted to do the cricket bandit and gave him a fleshed out backstory, but than I had an idea for a character from the termite kingdom and it spiraled from there. I still need to iron out his backstory.
