Hypotetical question...

If for some strange and/or odd reason, the PROFESSOR happened to be in an Rpg game.

What do you think his main attack/Weapon would be?
(I imagine he could have an Hypno power as a special skill,,, but this is about his main attack)

Again, this is just an.... Hypotetical.. coff coff* ... Scenario   :)

Okay, hot take: Since he’s all about modifying guys and using super advanced technology, what about him using a wand or something?

I see him as a combination of mind and muscle - buff body, powerful unarmed attacks in the style of a grappler or a wrestler, but also lots of charm/hypnosis spells and telepathic/empathic abilities. Why simply beat your enemy when you can dominate them on every level? Of course, there's the mad science angle to consider as well...

Thats why the question. He is so versatile in many arts :sweatyface: The second tought i has was... : Maybe he has a base class, and then he can choose an specialization later... I love thinking about these things :D

I haven´t taking into consideration his cloning/experimenting profession... mmmh Can be something to do with "serums" perhaps?, vaccines may be a bit extreeme,, so perhaps he could throw some "vials" bottles with the stuff in them?. This is interesting!

- Melee fighting style, with special ability to disable, skill-lock, stamina-drain, or stun. Additional ability to sap or debuff willpower, allowing previous skills to have higher success rate. Once the enemy has been disabled, he moves into close range and finish the enemy off. - Specialization: charm. Ability to make enemy units fight on his side, temporarily (or permanently, at later levels). - Specialization: drain. Creates a tether between a disabled enemy and the prof, limited by distance. While tether exists, the prof actively drains the enemy’s resources to replenish his own. Tether breaks if the prof moves too far away, or if enemy recovers from the disable. - Counters — enemies with debuff-immune, debuff purge, high willpower, or long-ranger units.

The drain ability sounds pretty good!. makes a lot of sense... Was watching some Baldurs Gate videos, and saw one creature called Intellect devourer,,, who was draining target intelligence, leaving them super weak to intelligence based attacks... Super cool!. and quite inspiring.
