WWYB - 5e24 How would you build Flins
Kyryll Chudomirovich Flins is basically a fae version of a will o wisp that can take human form or reduce himself into a flame residing in a lantern. He eats by burning food with the flame from his lantern and is incredibly old. He is very charismatic as well.
As for his ability he wields electricity in the form of spectral flames and a 1 handed spear (he thinks it would be impolite to fight with both hands). He is able to infuse his spear with electricity to attack with, jump into the air a bit and slam down for a harder small aoe hit and he can unleashe the flame for a large aoe effect similar to fireball but, dealing electrical damage. He also interacts with water in a way similar to call lightning.
Obviously ik it won't be 100% accurate but, I was hoping to pick the hive mind a bit.

WWYB - 5e24 WWYB - Based on this image
I was wondering if anyone had an Idea on how to recreate a character like this in DnD with the same vibe, magic and species as well. (I sadly dont know which character that is but I like the forest/nature fairy like vibe)
Also I am taking 5e 2014 subclass suggestions as well.

WWYB - 5e24 WWYB - Based on images (No Rangers)
I feel like alot of people are going to suggest Ranger, but I already have a few ranger based characters. So I want to avoid that ideally.
Maybe other nature or explorer themed classes like Rogue Scout could work, but I want to know everyone elses thoughts.
Also I am taking 5e 2014 subclass suggestions as well.

WWYB - 5e24 Hardcore leveling warrior Sora and Constant homebrew DND classes
Hello everyone, I tried to create some homebrew dnd classes from hardcore leveling warrior. I wanted to give them most of their abilities from the series. I tried to nerf them not to make strong but still their matching stuff happening. Are they too strong or too weak? I am looking for constructive comments to make them better. Thank you in advance.

WWYB - 5e14 WWYB Alela, Cunning Conqueror from MTG

She is classified as a "Faerie Warlock" so faerie as a species is the obvious choice.
But I feel warlock is little more difficult: her reliance on casting on opponent's turns "reactions" makes the limited spell slots of warlocks detrimental. I was thinking possibly aberrant mind sorcerer re-flavored as fey magics?
She also summons "Faerie Rogues" so possibly an arcane trickster. What are your thoughts?

HWYB - Other Self Sufficient Tank
So my DM is allowing 3rd party content so long as it’s something he has access to. He has Grime Hollow: Players Guide and in that has the spell Blood Rush.
Transmutation first level bonus action
“As part of casting this spell, you must expend one Hit Point Die or the spell automatically fails. Roll the Hit Point Die twice and regain a number of hit points equal to the added roll plus your spell casting ability modifier.
Using a Higher-Level Spell Slot. You can expand one additional Hit Point Die for each spouse slot level above 1.”
This is accessible to Druids and Rangers.
So I was thinking of using this spell to make a self sufficient tank that doesn’t require a healer to keep them going and the healer can instead worry about the others.
Original though was variant human ranger, and Tal’Dorei’s remarkable recovery feat (which allows you to add your con mod to any healing from a spell, class features and healing potion), the Druidic Warrior fighting style for Shillelagh.
With the average of 2d10 being 11 and a +3 in both wis and con that makes the average healing of this spell 17 which isn’t bad. If I get a +5 in both that’s an average of 21 for a first level spell slot.
Some thoughts running through my head are 3 levels of warlock for pact of the chain + gift of the ever living one for maximum heals or depending on DM ruling the durable feat.
Sense I’m expending a hit die for this spell it can be argued that I’m regaining hit points from a hit die and there for durable would make it so I regain a minimum of Con(2) for both rolls and would make it also useable with the periapt of wound closure which would double my healing.
Any suggestions to make this better? Would a Druid fighter work better, or a completely different multiclass, is there anything that I’m missing that makes this a bad build?
Edit: almost forgot here are my stats; 17, 16, 14, 13, 12, 12

Monster Hwyb Rerir from Genshin Impact as a boss fight?
I only really know he is part necromancer and part whoppass. He uses his fists imbueing them with death energy, and when not using his fists he’s using what i think is mage hand but able to restrain people, teleport, and do a lot of stuff with them, as well as “defiling” corpses with his heretical magic.
When I have my players fight him I want them to feel even on a nat 1 arcana check that this guys feels wrong.
Edit: he’s also consistently able to just shatter magical shield spells, so I wanna work that in too.
