I don't remember seeing a poll like this yet, so let's have at it!
Since the poll options are restricted to 10, I had to pair up some classes.
As always, please specify in the comments.
This is not about which class you want to be, but which you most likely would be, based on your real self.
So unless you are actually play an instument more than occassionally or are a regular writer of prosa or poetry, you probably wouldn't be a bard or if you don't actually know martial arts and stuff, you won't be a monk. Savvy?
PS: This is not just AD&D but all editions and maybe Pathfinder if you wanna.

No healing = no future.
You are just more important than the others.
I have always felt the need to be surrounded by animals and elements from nature. I have nurtured, helped and healed critters ever since I was a little girl, but I also believe in the cycle of life. For instance, that it is just as “right” for humans to eat other animals as it is for a lion to do so.
Anyway, I am not sure which class I would be. Probably something multiclassed. A few levels of bard (used to play drums as a teenager and I am an artist), a few levels of ranger (my father was an actual ranger and he taught me a thing or two). I always felt drawn to the sorcerer class, because I am a self taught artist. I'll go with bard for now, since that is the one artistic class.
@PK2748 This is about what class represents you IRL the most, not which would be most useful in game.
Choices, choices.
That's believable right? Bard it is.
@ifupauline
Healing is most crucial, I agree. However I always felt that healing without practical defence is likely to be insufficient when it comes to defending your own. I see rangers as a nice part of that solution (i.e. they have the practical side with a bit of appreciation of healing)... I always pick slow poision & cure disease as a ranger too.
@Ravenslight
That's sweet about helping critters. I volunteer as an injured wild animals rescue driver (I go pick them up and take them to the vet), which is another reason my wife believes I'm mostly ranger. I struggle with the notion of eating animals these days though.
@Hudzy
I struggled with that question for years but settled on Ranger as I got a bit older, for some reason.
Ahh… a kindred spirit.
This discussion reminded me of a test I took years ago that was designed to help you pick a career that was most suited to you. Mine told me that I should become a forest ranger.
Did you become a forest ranger? I dream of that job too.
Wizard/Sorceror is the easiest class to see an educated person from a 1st world country falling into.
Oddly enough, no. So much for tests.
Barbarian: Supersticious, strong, brute
Bard: Artist (preferably musician, writer, dancer or actor), charismatic, good at performing for a crowd
Cleric: Very religious, some type of healer (doctor, nurse, etc.)
Druid: Close to nature, works with animals (vet, zoo keeper, etc.)
Fighter: Soldier, trained in non-eastern martial arts or weapons (krav maga, street fighting, boxing, etc.), athletic
Monk: Follows eastern religion/ philosophy (taoism, buddhism, etc.)
Paladin: Loyal, good-natured, strong morals, disciplined, police officer
Ranger: Hiker, archer, hunter, wild-keeper, forest warden
Rogue: Locksmith, cleptomaniac, f***ing people over for a living
Shaman: Spiritual, esoteric
Sorcerer: Naturally gifted, doesn't do well with traditional learning (i.e. smart but still bad in school)
Warlock: Actual satanist or something along those lines, black metalhead, goth
Wizard: Insanely booksmart, doctor/ professor, stage magician
Other:
- Alchemist: Chemist, cook
- Technomancer: Engineer
- Witch: Like shaman but with obvious stereotypes
- etc.
Shaman and witch are tricky, because of the real-world implications.
