Description
The party walked through the busy town, watching as many people hurried by. Everyone seemed to be rushing to get somewhere, and in the confusion, it came as only a small surprise when Charley’s gold pouch suddenly vanished from his side. He felt the weight immediately, and turned to see a hooded figure running away.

Charley gave chase, and the rest of the party followed. When at last they cornered the culprit in a dark alley, the stranger finally put down his hood.

Bandit: Ah, well shoot. Looks like I’ve been caught. Y’all put up a mighty-fine chase, lemme tell ya that! Well, ya caught me. Here’s yer coin back, sir. (hands him the gold pouch)

Charley: Ah ain’t ever seen someone who could sneak up on me an’ steal my cash an’ get this far before. Who ‘r ya, exactly?

Bandit: Oh, sorry stranger! Th’ name’s Showdown Bandit, thief extraordinaire!

* * * * *

Bandit was exceedingly hard to redesign, but I think I got a good thing in the end. Being a thief- more specifically a bandit, no dip- Bandit would be dressed in darker clothes, have a hood, and have many packs and satchels to store everything he steals. Fortunately, he is already colored darkly in the game, so that part was easy. It was the adding in the extra stuff and making him seem less like a cowboy that was hard.

In the end, he kept the hat, vest, boots, and general color scheme. However, he also has many different belts and straps all attached to different things, a backpack, a full gold pouch, and a hood. He also has two daggers and a crossbow to replace the popgun. Because a crossbow is the closest thing to a popgun yer gonna get in the DnD world.

And about that symbol on his hood and the strings hanging from his wrist: those are all references to the game. The strings are on both wrists and hanging from his neck like a necklace, while his boots have that spiral pattern on them with a line going through it (representing the needle). And the symbol is a puppet- or person- attached to strings. However, it also kinda looks like a crossbow, so when asked, that’s probably Bandit’s response. It’s a crossbow, what else?

The scar and his fingers: Probably from encounters with the Faceless Bandit. The scar is meant to resemble that mark on his face in the game, which I hope maybe gets explained sometime? And instead of being made of wood, Bandit is a human, and so has 5 fingers. However, a potential storyline you could use is that he is missing a finger on each hand, likely from an encounter with the Faceless Bandit. Or someone he stole from. Or both.

EQUIPMENT

Thieves’ Tools
2 Daggers
String, yarn, and needles

PERSONALITY
Looks for values as soon as he enters a room, friends are greater than enemies, “Never tell me the odds!” Can be childish.
IDEALS
Steals to cause trouble / help himself, but loyal to friends. Most of the time.
BONDS
Wants to become a great thief, but empathy gets him every time. If he’s caught, he returns what he stole.
FLAWS
When presented with valuables, he can only think of how to get them. And empathetic. Contradictory, but hey, he’s a kids’ show cartoon protagonist. What do you want from me? XD

FEATURES AND TRAITS
Criminal Contact: He knows people and has ways of communicating with them.
Sneak Attack: 1d6
Thief’s Cant: Understands coded messages in a “normal” conversation between fellow criminals. If they seem to be talking about skiing, they might actually be talking about how the world will end by getting buried in another ice age.

- Almost-white skin
- Red-orange curly hair
- Light blue eyes
- Black / Purple / Red clothes
- Knee-high black boots
- Black / Purple hat
- Black hood
- Strings hanging freely from wrists and around neck
- Design on boots (a swirl with a line through it)
- Symbol on hood (looks like either a crossbow or a puppet)

Bandit, although a wooden puppet in his game, is now a human. A very short human. I did this mostly for my own sanity, but also because him being a puppet wouldn’t make sense. Who is controlling him? Can we see them? If not, who and where are they? Do his strings go up endlessly into the sky? Where do they stop? It was a lot to answer, so I just made him human.

He also has a popgun in his game, but such a thing does not exist in DnD and also is not a weapon that would actually kill something, so instead, I gave him a crossbow. It’s the closest thing to a popgun I could find.

SPELLS
Bandit does not have any spells, or if he did, he’s only know 1. It’d be a cantrip and more than likely Light.

To everyone who voted, thank you again! I’m glad you all are enjoying this series! And now, in the next poll, Bandit will be replaced by Undyne from Undertale! All other characters will remain the same.

Who should I do next?

I do believe I will be making a YouTube vid on this series at some point, too, so keep an eye out!
