Regardless, I’m a huge advocate of building characters in this way and I think almost everyone at my table has done it at least once.
You may choose to play them similarly to the character you modeled them off of or you may end up playing them completely differently. At the end of the day, the character you build is just stats on your character sheet and they really come to life with your roleplaying. Very rarely do new players who are unfamiliar with RPGs have the ability to flex their creative muscles both from a story perspective or an optimization perspective to create a truly unique Dungeons & Dragons character. Whether you want to replicate playing as a character you love in your DND game, you relate to a character on an emotional level or you just want to build them and use their stats on your character sheet - it’s a very valid way to build a character and I don’t think it’s discussed enough. In last week’s article, How To Build Disney Characters in 5e, we talked a little bit about how many players like to take their inspiration for their character from their favorite fiction franchises.
