Is He-Man a warlock?

No, Captain Marvel is a warlock.
He-man is a sorcadin.

>>96104170 (OP)
He-Man is a GURPS character, not a D&D character. Broaden your horizons.

>>96104170 (OP)
What is "a warlock"?
>>96104317
Yes. Turns out, the vast, vast, vast overwhelming majority of characters in fantasy media / literature cannot be modeled in D&D but they can be in GURPS. If /tg/ would ban all discussion / reference to D&D, it would only improve - both the board and the community at large.

>>96104170 (OP)
Ask the general.

>>96104708
point me to the he-man general please.

Traditional games?

He-Man is a magical girl, but male. He's Sailor Moon but with pecs

>>96104816
>warlock
right here

>>96104349
Again, the gurpsfag proves he doesn't actually play games. Making characters and imagining the adventures you could go on isn't a replacement for having actual friends. Better yourself, loser.

>>96104862
World of Warcraft has warlocks, so OP's dumbass question must be /v/ content. See, we can both play this retarded game.

>>96104349
Never touched GURPS in my life and never plan to, but I 110% agree that the removal of D&D and all its associated retardation would be a huge improvement to everyone with working brain cells left.

>>96104940
world of warcraft is /tg/ related, it has several RPG books, so your point is moot.

>>96104170 (OP)
>Is He-Man a warlock?
Absolutely not.

There are no 3.x, 4e, or 5e D&D classes or feats which could model him. It is unlikely 1e or 2e could either from what little I know or remember.
Other systems, even ones inspired by D&D, such as Pathfinder, can model him to various degrees.

In Pathfinder 1e he would be a Magical Child Vigilante with some minor homebrew (namely, changing the familiar to an animal companion, for his tiger mount Cringer), with several technological and magical items, possibly from Starfinder 1e.
In 2e he would be a Fighter or possibly a Commander with the Starlit Sentinel dedication, with several magical items and a few items ported from Starfinder 2e.

Youd get the essence, but not an exact replication of true power with both editions.

>>96105193
>retarded bullshit, the post
Jesus christ, whatever joy you get out of pumping misinformation into this board has turned you into a sack of pure shit.

>>96105192
You did not get my point.

>>96105213
Ah, I see now, this is a GURPS circlejerk thread where we're only supposed to get on our knees and suck off GURPSfags and tell them how great they are, and not a how to create He-Man in various systems thread.

>>96105223
You point is that you failed the rigorous tests to be a janitor so you lash out impotently at random threads.

>>96105238
I bet he's an offended D&D fag not an offended gurpsfag.

>>96105259
If so, hes open to prove me wrong. All he has to do is post a simple build from any D&D edition, as I did, and I'll concede that that edition can do it.

>>96105282
nta but I like to fluff barbarian rage as different stuff.

>>96104170 (OP)
Paladin of Greyskull

>>96104841
This. He's a supernatural magical girl with superpowers.

>>96104317
>>96104349
GURPS is awful at in-genre atmosphere and only useful for mathematicians to model random shit in white room exercises.

>>96106399
>for mathematicians to model random shit in white room exercises.
t. only knows about gurps memes and never even read the basic books

>>96105193
What combination of abilities makes you so confident the content landfill of 3.X can't model him? While I wouldn't be surprised about single-class, he's not exactly known for casting spells himself so the dipstack engages.

>>96106497
Because of the magical transformation stuff. And I played and read pretty much all first party 3.x books. But if its possible, Id like to see it because its been awhile and I've likely forgotten things.

>>96104349
Y'know, I used to be neutral on GURPS. Even played it once.
But after your staggeringly autistic campaign to shove and cram it into every orifice of every thread no matter how unwelcome like a cactus dildo, I've grown to despise it.
If this is a reverse psychology false flag I suppose you can consider this mission accomplished, this is a psyop worthy of John fucking Bolton

>>96104841
It's called sentai, retard

>>96104170 (OP)
I dunno ask >>>/co/

>>96111743
good for you!
Why do people think anyone cares about what others play?
I don't know about you guys but I don't buy shares in tabletop RPG companies so whether GURPS is popular or not won't change a thing. The game is complete, they've already said they won't redo gurps vehicles, so the company could close down TODAY and nothing would change.

>>96111937
>Why do people think anyone cares about what others play?
Because some fucking candyass roddypoo keeps on trying to force the GURPS meme into every thread no matter how little sense it makes, and whines about 5e in a manner I can only recognize as utter seething.
To flip the question on its head, why the fuck do you care if someone isn't playing GURPS, but happily plugging away at their 5e campaign instead? Why the need to bring it up so much if you don't care?

>>96111958
I come to /tg/ to post my unregulated opinions, I just happen to think GURPS is gods gift to mankind and D&D5e is utter trash, and I will post this on every thread I can regardless of the consequences.

>>96111965
You're actively pushing people away and shrinking the pool of people willing to play GURPS in so doing, a tremendously huge pool to begin with I'm sure.
And for what?
A smug sense of superiority?
Validation by way of (you)?
These are jewish levels of well-poisoning.

>>96111971
>actively pushing people away and shrinking the pool of people willing to play GURPS
Not my problem, I have my group, and I would never play with anyone from 4chan. Any "well-poisoning" will never affect me.
>And for what?
Posting my objectively correct opinion is its own reward.

>>96111984

I bet you also don't put shopping trolleys back after you're done with them
And hell, I don't think you even have a group like you claim, because you reek of nogames

I said, hey.....
What's goin' on?

>>96112000
posting like a xitter addict won't make an objectively correct statement become incorrect. And honestly, if you let posts from 4chan shape your opinion on things you're just weak-willed.
Not gonna bother addressing the rest of your projection.

>>96106497
Peak He-Man can move faster than light and bench-press planets. The latter is not hyperbole.

He’s also consistently shown as superior to Skeletor, who - at peak - is a multiverse-scale conqueror who operates at a similar level to the likes of Dr. Strange, Dr. Fate, Zatanna or Scarlet Witch. In one DC/Masters crossover comic, he bodied the entire Justice League, including Superman, in the space of just a few panels.

It’s a bit outside the limits of D&D or, indeed, most RPGs, to depict.

>>96112037
Okay, so He-Man is a xianxia character

>>96112037
>or, indeed, most RPGs, to depict.
I'm not saying that these games can emulate he-man, but in terms of power level, I can think of some RPGs that can reach that.
D&D3e epic level shit is unplayable but does have "bench press planets" with enough ST.
GURPS also does have ST scale into bench pressing, supers does have Superman statted up (with some generic name)

>>96106399
>GURPS is awful at in-genre atmosphere
How?

>>96106722
>Because of the magical transformation stuff.
...Isn't that entirely on the sword tapping Castle Greyskull? Wondrous Architecture abuse buffstacks cover all sorts of random bullshit.

>>96112037
Firstly "who cares for logic?" outliers are not "can the system manage the power structure?", secondly there are in fact unbounded speed sources in-system. Epic levels, as >>96112066 points out, goes quite indefinitely.

And you can actually manage the building-chucking pre-Epic. The Hulking Hurler shenanigans are quite impressive.

>>96104170 (OP)
no, WotC/TSR don't define the rules for fantasy beyond their shit game.

>>96112243
>And you can actually manage the building-chucking pre-Epic

A planet, even a small one, is *slightly* larger than a building.

>>96112628
I repeat:
>Firstly "who cares for logic?" outliers are not "can the system manage the power structure?"

>>96104170 (OP)
he's a superhero, like superman
the sword is basically pointless, as is battle-cat

>>96111791
No the anon, but it's called henshin of which both sentai and magical girl are subgenres. And He-Man is unironically closer to a typical magical girl, at least in terms of how he presents himself.

>>96105193
He-Man is basically a Bladebound Magus from Pathfinder 1e. Yes, you won't be a broken at level 1 but same idea and all

>>96112502
>>96112502
I wish it weren't true either, but we live in a world of realities and influences not wishes. Everything fantasy made in the last 30 years is filtered through the D&D lens. If not aping how it twisted the tropes of pulp and early high fantasy, then by how attempting to actively avoid it still causes it to be a primary influence. Zigging because D&D zagged is still letting D&D decide for you.

>>96117475
the battle-cat is there for when he gets lonely

>>96118461
>Zigging because D&D zagged
no, it's not about intentionally avoiding WotC stuff, it's about doing whatever you want and choosing your influences/inspirations.
D&D existing doesn't mean that you MUST use it even when analyzing or referencing LotR or fucking ancient mythology.

>>96120229
You are not immune to outside influence. By being cognizant of how D&D's changed fantasy you are influenced by it.

>>96120491
Meaningless statement. You can say that about literally everything.
I am aware cats exist, and thus now all my fantasy settings will be influenced by the existence of casts since whether I choose to have cats or not in my settings means I have been influenced one way or another by cats.

>>96120491
this anon is right
>>96120590
>Lemonparty exists!!! that means I MUST include elderly gay porn in my games otherwise I'm being a contrarian if I intentionally go out of my way to not include elderly gay porn!!!
