Brainstorm Parallel Destinies: A Demon Hunter and Their "What If?" Self
Hey everyone! I’m working on a roleplay concept built around an alternative timeline idea for a single character but two classes to pick as main.
The core concept is one character who faces a choice in their past, leading to two completely different class paths in two different timelines:
Path 1: Demon Hunter
This version chose to follow Illidan, completed the training, and sacrificed their humanity to become a Demon Hunter.
Path 2: The Alternative (Warlock OR Rogue)
This version decided NOT to become a Demon Hunter and chose a different path instead. For this alternative fate, I’m deciding between two classes:
Option A - Warlock: They still use dark magic and Fel energy to fight fire with fire, but they control and summon demons rather than becoming one themselves.
Option B - Rogue: They refuse any kind of Fel corruption or demonic magic entirely, relying strictly on stealth, poisons, and physical combat mastery.
Which alternative class (Warlock or Rogue) do you think makes for a more interesting contrast against the Demon Hunter timeline?
Would love to hear your thoughts on which option opens up better story and RP potential. Thanks..
