creating D&D Character builds is a thankless job, but somebody's gotta do it

[@HollywoodZach]

When I tell you my jaw hit the floor when I saw the thumbnail. I was in the Chicago shadowcast of Repo! and this wave of nostalgia hit me like a ton of bricks.

[@Fortesoulzero]

out from the night, from the Mist, steps a character No one really knows his build for sure He stands at 6' 6", head and shoulders Pray he never comes critting at your door

[@mop2420]

Say that you once bought a heart, or new corneas - But never managed to square away your debts. He won’t bother to write, or to phone you, He’ll just rip the still-beating heart from your chest!

[@louiscrawford1784]

🎵REEEEEPOOO MAAAAAANNN🎵

[@TheMARStudios]

Was not expecting the nostalgia that hit when I saw this drop. Also immediately thought of your Medic subclass and how cool a medical Rogue is. Honestly was surprised this wasn't a triple class of the "expert classes" but I guess Bard gives too much that he doesn't do.

[@ShrankTheFirst]

Would've helped with the singing though...

[@TheMARStudios]

@@ShrankTheFirst Decent enough Charisma and proficiency in the skill does just fine for role play unless you want proficiency with an instrument. Could take more Rogue levels like suggested and take the Skilled feat to get Performance and more to show off with Reliable Talent.

[@thrasherwartooth]

I never thought you'd do such a niche property but I was obsessed with Repo back in the day so I ain't even mad this is phenomenal

[@EMbrokehp]

I'm imagining the other players at the table singing as the voices in Nathan's head

[@clonetrooper2505]

Never seen Repo, so I'm very confused why Giles from Buffy is stabbing people.

[@memehand]

He’s being blackmailed into assassination/organ repossession duty by a CEO who fatally poisoned Giles’ wife and gaslit Giles into thinking he did it.

[@daltondoestheirbest]

He also sings incredibly well

[@ShrankTheFirst]

Wasn't Giles nicknamed "Ripper" at some point in his career?

[@Psykolord1989]

Eh, with all the Slayers active now, he snapped from having to train way too many people and decided to go play slasher villain.

[@VictorStave]

Because they needed someone who can sing well enough to nail the role, and Giles has some solid gold pipes on him; He did not get a big enough share of “Once More With Feeling” in my opinion

[@Citrikacid11]

I love this movie but I am usually the one introducing it to other people so I'm glad to see it getting some love.

[@MagusAgrippa8]

I absolutely love Repo. One of my favorite musicals of all time. Definitely ends up like a slasher build. And it's Anthony Head! He's great. Best dad.

[@ocean6947]

Not in a million years would I expect a Repo! Build

[@derekjoyce6152]

I did not know how much I wanted this until you published this video. THANK YOU TULOK!

[@ScarecrowsMainFan1]

Wow. If I had a nickel for every time Tulok made a D&D character out of a murderer from a Musical, I’d have 2 nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but it’s weird it happened twice. (Side note: Dr Doofenshmirtz in D&D pretty please! )

3, if you count Scar.

[@timothyglassbrook4886]

Saw the title and did like three double takes. The thought of a PC that canonically just ganks people to take their organs is terrifying

[@Glacier_Nester]

Man, i haven't thought about repo in YEARS, what a thing that is

[@danifalko8656]

I love this. Thank you. This was a fantastically fun movie.

[@samm7371]

When you do mainstream stuff, it's good. When you do niche stuff like this? It's amazing.

[@brikilian7834]

Anthony Head: Giles from Buffy, or the guy from the Folgers commercials if your old. Sarah Brightman: soprano, the origonal Christine in Phantom of the Opera Joan Jett: rocker Nivek Ogre: industrial metal sinnger, Skinny Puppy and thats just the list of people who sang professionally. Then there is Paul Sorvino, Alexa Vega, Paris Hilton, and Bill Moseley. It had a pretty good cast.

[@davidpeer5769]

The literal, Grip, Repo had on me as a teenager. Good GOD. Thanks T!

[@weirdguy1495]

You know how I said Winslow Leach was the most obscure character in this series? The Repo Man surpasses him for sure.

[@AdamistheDevil]

There are literally like four Repo Men during the song Night Surgeon that we never see again lol

[@zacharylowery5139]

I...I can't believe this random part of my geekdom has collided with one of my favorite channels

I have no idea what this is and I am all for it!! Btw love this dude is Giles "Ripper" from Buffy

[@jashin5252]

I popped off when I saw this in my feed. Love this movie.

[@TheGarrettPM]

This is such a. Random pull! Fantastic.

[@seanmills7168]

First Phantom of the Paradise, now Repo: The Genetic Opera? Awesomesauce

[@biodude15]

As a 6'6" dude, I can confirm we are unusually quiet. I unintentionally jumpscare my mother quite often.

[@ChronoShadow69]

Love this movie, Love your builds, thank you so much for bringing them together!

[@PhantomSavage]

I have absolute no idea what this is and I don't quite know how to describe what I'm seeing with my eyes. I may have a new musical to watch.

[@lailazarrabiyan3093]

I can't believe this channel exists. This is hilarious!

[@camblycreeper7999]

As someone who hasn't seen Repo, can confirm Luigi does sound like Mario's brother

[@JessieShadowhold]

I do love the meta choice to not build them optimally seeing as the Repo Man is very much an idiot and a sucker who would do that. Excellent choice, glad you also brought up the alternative for home games, 10/10

[@ryangriffin1998]

I was like, "Wait, wasn't this film the subject of a Mystery Science Theater 3000 episode?" Then I checked, I was thinking of "Parts: The Clonus Horror". So, no MST3K based build yet.

[@joehayes9767]

Love this flick!

[@jena_thornwyrd]

Oh yes !!! Excellent !

[@louiscrawford1784]

I was just listening to some of my favorite songs from this movie, so this build is an unexpected pleasure. Shame that one of the creators is a creep though.

[@KJinthecoffee]

holy shit, other ppl remember repo!?

[@whitevandeath]

I would like to see The Last Ronin done (Yes the skill set is different!)

[@Psykolord1989]

Before viewing: Oh this video is gonna be good. Wish I could take it everywhere with me. Like, I don't know, put it in a little glass vial...

[@nicolasvillasecaali7662]

Evil corps, assassins and gore, music, a cult following for a movie that was harshly critiqued, this apparently is a good recipe for a build! If you don’t mind, I will wait indoors for my tangle the lemur build, good Sir Tulok (please?), not because of a skin disease, but because I’m DEADLY allergic to being butchered for my organs! In a world where 90% of the humankind has been whipped due an organ failure diesase, what better thing to do than run a Megacorp to sell organs? (With all and an assassin squad, like blackmailed Nathan Wallace, a medic that was tricked to become head Repo Man, to retrieve them from defaulter clients!) GeneCo’s CEO, Rotti Largo thinks that is great business, but when he is diagnosed with a terminal ill, the vacuum of power will drag many people to a struggle for life that will fit the trope of tragic Operas.

[@importedglue891]

I was expecting a bard rouge multiclass but I kind of want to play this to see how fun it would be lol

[@sethtipps7093]

Tulok, Yours is a... thankless hob! Now do Devil's Carnival

[@thomasdevine867]

Still pulling for Eglentine Price (Bednobs and Broomsticks), Mary Poppins, Councilor Troi (ST:tNG), Sir Dragonet, King Arthur's jester (Iddyls of the King/le Morte d'arthur), Prince Voltron (Flash Gordon), and the Reverend Doctor Syn (The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh).

[@berserkerciaran]

When I read "the Repo Man", I thought this would be about the iconic(?) '80s/'90s wrestler, ngl

[@matthill5426]

Hey Tulok, love the channel! What's your favorite polearm build you've done thus far? I'm working on a PAM and could use ideas!

[@Technodreamer]

Okay, wild choice, but go with me: Warlock, with Largo as the patron.

[@dg7815]

Maybe add a level of Bard to get that performance skill. What's a musical character to do without performance?

[@GobPalRosieVT]

He's here to reap? Oh man.

@@jackalope2302 he doesn't necessarily need to be a bard because he's in a musical. Performance would be enough. That said I think Billy actually should probably have a low charisma, since he doesn't really do all that well with the girl.

I’ve been told I should watch Repo since I enjoy musicals. What do others say?

[@unsystematic-]

It is wild and edgy, quite a product of the time it was made. If you can get over how ridiculous it is and just enjoy it.. very very awesome music. I continue to be surprised they never did more in the universe. The main creators caught some heat for being creepers through the years so I guess it's best they don't.

[@brikilian7834]

Do you like camp, b-movies, musicians as guest stars, goth aesthetics, and a touch of horror? Then you might very well enjoy it. If you hate those things, watch it anyways just to be nice to your friends.
