Examples of the various DnD Classes in fiction?

Sasori of the Red Sands is a renegade mastermaker:

Batman = Rogue/Avenging Executioner^CS who's way beyond his WBL

Most action guys in Hollywood right now = Fighter with the Thug and Dungeoncrasher ACFs.

Sasori of the Red Sands is a renegade mastermaker

So is Edward Elric.

Most of the characters in Attack on Titan are scouts^CAdv. The higher-level ones tend to multiclass into other martial classes; a lot of them are Swift Hunters with Favored Enemy (giant).

Oh, and they have nonmagical equipment that's way more useful than D&D allows.

And those Titans they fight are monstrous vermin "humans" in the frank and K sense.

God those things. . . smiles

Bayonetta is clearly a Malconvoker.

Or, since she maps much more closely here, a pathfinder witch with amateur gunsmithing feats (and a grit pool) and the prehensile hair Hex who is hiding like 8 Opalescent White Pyramid Ioun stones and using Shades the way god intended - to tear celestials to pieces.

Superman is an enlightened fist with Ocular Spell. Strength devotion too, probably. Kryptonite is very obviously generating an AMF.

Mario is Hood. I mean, he can kill the sun by jumping on it!

Bender is a warforged rogue.

Robot devil is a warforged bard with leadership.

Professor Farnesworth is a classic venerable aged artificer.

Merasmus (TF2 halloween) is not a "wizard" at all, he's a chumpy warlock. Which I guess explains the look.

In terms of mindset I'd say that Solomon Kane would fit for paladin. Though mechanically he'd be more of a Pathfinder gunslinger.

I watched some archive MMA footage.

Chuck Liddell finishes his fight with
23 strikes that hit (!) in 7 seconds.
Round before = Stun triggers Bull Rush
Round to win = Crit loop ... but
Immediate Interrupt by the Ref to stop the fight.

125 lb (55kg) class champ fight winner throws
250 punches in 5 * 5 minute rounds, equals
250 rounds in d&d time (with super-short rests).
