Dibs on the hat

Depending on peasants’ lifespans in this world, the peasant with the midlife crisis could be just out of their teens
Unless you’re in the middle of a major plague or have a ridiculous amount of war, peasants in a medieval-style world who survive young childhood should generally get to an age of about 60. Though getting old with medieval-level medicine while working a physically demanding job probably sucks hard.

Nah. More like early thirties. Average life expectancy in the dark ages was 30 or something, but that’s just because most people died very young, mostly as babies. If you managed to grow up at all, you could reach your 50s or 60s.

One in eight Commoners has 1 hp. I doubt they’d even make it to their teens.

What’s missing is the Mud Wizard.

These are fantastic. The hat+mannequin seems like it would have a lot of RP potential. Ditto for the midlife crisis.
I’m currently placing a sentient spellbook piloting a mannequin. It’s telepathic, too, and I love switching between the robot “outside” voice and the more demonic “inside” voice. For even more dramatic effect, it can summon it’s own soul (Scribes Wizard works extremely well for this concept)

Hear me out: I played with an orc fighter who was convinced he was a mage, and tried to convince the rest of the party of the same thing. He carried a cast iron pan as his weapon, and his spells were “pan toss” and “pan smack”. There were a lot of laughs when NPC’s would be like “you’re clearly a fighter, you’re wearing plate armor” and he’d say it was his spell casting focus.

I played a Protector Aasimar Barbarian named Krill who was a fairly average scholar who had decided studying wasn’t for him. He heard somebody talking about “Power Word Krill,” and decided that he wanted to learn how to do it. He would basically go along with the party on everything (sometimes a little too quickly, he was hard to kill and often forgot others were squishier), but was absolutely obsessed with finding Power Word Krill.
He was asked multiple times if he was instead looking for “Power Word Kill,” but he really wanted to summon a lot of small crustaceans on demand. Or maybe it would just summon a big one, he didn’t know and was fine with either situation.

In Pathfinder, as a Tanuki you can take a feat called Teakettle Form that allows you to change into a inanimate object (like a hat) and if you’re a witch you can have your familiar take a humanoid form.

My friend played Farmer Bob at a larp. His village had a legend that the chosen one would come from the village to defeat the great evil. When things got bad enough they picked him because he was the only one who was literate at the time, so they figured that was heroic enough.
@its_kim_love @Stamets Shades of discworld logic, right there.

Only one that’s terrible is the washboard bard, but that’s just my personal dislike of the horny bard trope
I once played an ace bard. He only cares about the music. He also unconditionally oozed sex appeal.

i had a rogue that i claimed to have forgotten the name to each session. in reality, i was playing them under a false identity and hiding from the thieves guild, that was just me dropping bread crumbs. that was fun.

I also had an ace bard! Red dragonborn who was head cheerleader at his school and only wanted a puppy during the campaign. The puppy then proceeded to be carried around on said bard’s head.
