MC Tav Gith warlock 9:

  • fiend+blade pact for up close
  • eldritch blast + agonizing + repelling for ledge boops and while closing gaps
  • gith for medium armor and the totally bonkers ancestral knowledge. I have proficiency in effectively all skills, and charisma for winning dialogue
  • using sorrow for reliable bonus action attack+yank

Shadowheart trickery cleric 9

  • “you cast guidance”
  • spirit guardians, guardian of faith, and spiritual weapon can all be going at the same time
  • a magic bow that causes the frightened condition is the cherry on top.

Karlach paladin 6/barbarian 3

  • you can smite while raging
  • those couple extra free racial smites are nice
  • currently ancients + berserker, but planning to switch to wild magic
  • using blood of lathander

Gale evocation wizard 9

  • “I didn’t ask how big the room was, I said I cast fireball”

Hang on you can smite using racial spell slots? WotC please take note.

I think Tieflings get searing smite and branding smite as racial skills that can be used once per long rest. They cost an action and are definitely a nice to have as a Tiefling Paladin MC
