Need a third bumbling idiot for Gale to babysit
Trying to put together a squad after my current play through finishes. The idea is for three well-meaning dipshits who wander around causing problems, to consistently and accidentally leave things far better than they were before they got there. They accomplish this through the overwhelming power of being really quite lucky, quite a lot of the time. And Gale.
I'm really trying to maximize the feeling of "ridiculous bullshit keeps happening whenever these assholes show up, but it always seems to go in their favor." WM Sorc Tav and WM Barb Karlach will be the mainstays. Gale will spec Divination to keep his dumb friends from blowing themselves up when Tav tries to William Tell a firebolt at the barrel of smokepowder Karlach is balancing on her head.
I haven't attempted Tactician difficulty yet and might consider using this crew for that, if it seems strong enough. That's not the priority, though, fun/RP is. The only things I won't change are:
-Tav: Halfling (for the luck trait/it'll be extra funny romancing Karlach) Wild Magic Sorc, lucky feat at 4
-Karlach: Wild Magic Barb, Lucky feat at 4
-Gale: Divination Wizard, lucky feat at 4
Not sure who a good fourth would be. I'd like to >!respec Minsc as a drunken master monk, but he isn't available until act 3!< . Monk and Bard seem like they could potentially fit the theme, but I've never played either so I'm not familiar with how they work or their subclasses. A 1-2 level dip for any of them would be fine, especially if it gives more opportunities for WM to trigger.
I've only really started learning DnD 5e systems/terms in the last couple of years or so, so I'm not very knowledgeable about a lot of the mechanics yet. Any ideas would be appreciated: who/what class the fourth could be, other feats (Sentinel Gale desperately swatting at goblins trying to keep his little idiots alive), and gear especially.
