How to Properly Roleplay a CE Min/Maxed Barbarian

[dragonfire9000]

Okay boys, I have an incredibly grand question for you:

*points up* There it was. How is it possible? How do you lend any depth to a completely min/maxed CE half-orc barbarian? How can you make him shine, make him stand out from his brethren, make him funny make him scary make him enjoyable to more people than just yourself? This is an interesting question to me, because I rolled up a basher alt just for the fun of crushing things. However, my main died, and now my alt has to fill his shoes. I don't want him to be the traditional, "Ugg not like you. Ugg now smash. UGG!!" You see? I'm open to any suggestion, no matter how completely outlandish or odd it may be.

Thanks in advance.

He's really just misunderstood, if you take the time to get to know him, you'll find Ugg can be a nice guy too. When he's sleeping.

It would be kinda of a BRUTEY barb that might also brutaly kill or like gore. If EXTREMELY chaotic evil you could make him blood thirsty and people would want to kill you for vampirism.

...  I had written a few things, but thought why should I give them to you when I could do them myself.
 
...
 
AND MOST OF ALL:  Stay away fom Uggs, they really are ugly and do make you look fat.

A min max half orc will not have depth.

It would be largely unable to initiate communication with other PCs, nor make decisions of its own beyond the most simple.

Most likely this would lead to walking around drooling, doing whatever anyone tells you to do/not doing a single thing anyone tells you to, taking stupid risks, and perhaps occasionally eating someone.

I would suggest focusing on his goals and his background.
 
Background: What made him Chaotic and what made him evil. Birth, trauma, his soul?
 
Goals: You need to achieve them whilst not conforming too much and being ruthless to the point of evil. Does he want to be rich, if he's impatient and stupid he may start mugging people. Does he want power and minions? If so how does he get them?
 
If you start from there you should be OK imo.

[Nuclear Catastrophe]

Goals and background are pretty meaningless for a low cha, low wisdom half orc tbh.  The best they can hope for is 'lackey', and so you should attach yourself to the most prominent individual you can.

Being forceful of personality and such like is not possible for such a character, and thusly they shouldn't 'dominate' people unless in an animal like fashion.

Just be a good henchman.  That's about all.

[Yalta]

Good point NC. If low charisma is part of your min-max then lackey would be pretty much all you can get to, whilst playing your stats accurately.
 
Min - max's, with low Charisma and Wisdom are some of the hardest PC's to play accurately given the massive personal deficency they have in almost all interactions and decision making.

[dragonfire9000]

Yes indeed, that is the true problem. Even if the character has goals, they cannot be complex, interesting or all-encompasingly big in any way. Vrogde is ugly, stupid, violent and slightly repressed. So really, I cannot focus on his goals. Perhaps then I must focus on role-playing him perfectly, as the absolute epitome of brutish, moronic violence.

And yes. Uggs are ridiculous.

It'd probably be more fun and interesting to RP a more conventionally built PC!

[Dr Dragon]

Playing a Dumb stupid Min Max Half-Orc thug can be really fun. But you should RP your stupidity get fooled easily and stuff. Also dont expect to be a mastermind expect to be a mindless thug that smashes stuff. I played on once a Half-Orc named Timmy he was basically the slave of some gangsters in Lower and he thugged people up!

[The_Palmtop_Tiger]

and perhaps occasionally eating someone.

Change "occasionally" to "all the time" and I think we'll have laughs up the wazoo.

Core:

You are absolutely right. The problem is, I've run out of concepts. I have these amazing ideas that are so incredibly wonderful I just plain cannot contain myself and I roll up the character and then!

Something even more dangerous than the Lagbeast strikes: boredom. No one can escape its clutches. I bloody attacked a posse of three Nightriser Warriors with a level four who had no shield because I could NOT rustle up any action for the life of me! I'm likely (Self-diagnosis) borderline ADD as I cannot stand nothing happening. I've lost girlfriends because I cannot stand silence. It pains me. What is a personality like mine to do? Le sigh...

[core]

If you shoot me a message on IRC we can try to work out some interesting goals for your concepts that'll keep you interested. Or you could roll up one of your crazy ass concepts and just go wild. It's all good, as long as you're having fun.

Nuke, describe 'in an animal like fashion' in depth, plz.
