  • It gets even weirder in terms of game mechanics. High strength and no armor is kind of an unusual combination. Barbarians and bards (buff or otherwise) both typically wear armor. As do fighters, rangers, rogues, clerics…

    Wizards and sorcerers don’t but also don’t usually benefit much from strength. (Not to mention that bard is a strange multi for either.)

    Conclusion: Terry as pictured is clearly a monk/bard.







  • Could magic overcome, resolve or undo a disability?

    Some, certainly. Assuming D&D, mid-level clerics can restore missing limbs (and, though the spell description doesn’t mention them specifically, I would argue ocular, auditory, and spinal injuries as well). So disability due to injury should at least be less common than in the real world.

    Congenital issues, on the other hand, are much more difficult. Wish would work, but that’s not exactly accessible.

    That said, there’s considerable potential for the magical equivalent of prostheses and other accessibility devices to be more effective than their real-world counterparts.
