The Cheater (GLÅUGUST 2026)
I have made this cheeky class on a lark. Their specialty is unfair advantages that would be cheating in any other circumstance. This is definitely metagaming. In the spirit of this character class, I am also cheating! I did not roll for this entry, it counts for two entries, and I don't fucking want to use letter templates. You get bullet points. Choose one per level.
This is part of the GLÅUGUST 2026 collaboration. It corresponds to 6.4 and 6.1: https://nothicseye.blogspot.com/2026/07/g-l-u-g-u-s-t-2-0-2-6.html
Cheater
Cheaters Never Lose: Your Cheater templates are included in other classes’ Template bonuses
Trick dice†: you are allowed to use any die for your character's rolls. Magnetic, weighted, spin down, wrong size… if the gm calls you out, you switch to a different cheat.
No I Don't: Once ever: If your character were to die, they don't.
Master of All: Once per session: swap two of your ability scores/skill bonuses. You can do this right before a roll.
Sexcalibur 9001: Your character gets a badass +3 sword that can shoot lasers, even if it's not setting appropriate
†Digital alternative: once per session, you can say “whoops, the die roller isn't working” then roll until you get the result you want
Optional: Cheaters can move diagonally on a square combat grid. I decided to keep this one separate for a few reasons: I think it fits a ninja or skirmisher type better. It also demands square combat grids, and I don’t think most GLOGs use those.
