Wisdom describes a character’s willpower, common sense, perception, and intuition. Intelligence determines how well your character learns and reasonsThe scores range from 3-18 for humans (other species in the D&D universe can go above 18 if I remember correctly. Anyhow, I thought it would be fun to imagine the character sheets for key political players these days, and, please correct me if I am wrong or come up with better takes than this.
Donald Trump
Race:
Alignment: Chaotic Evil (Chaos vs Law reflects freedom/adaptability/flexibility vs. honor/authority/reliability/trustworthiness; Good/Neutral/Evil reflects altruism/respect for life/respect for dignity vs harming/oppressing/etc)
Class: Thief (Duh)
Strength: 15 Donald has crushed some hands in his day.
Dexterity: 18 He can act quickly and spin quite a bit.
Constitution: 6 He tires easily.
Intelligence: 7 He really does not like to learn.
Wisdom: 12 He has some sense and intuition--he can figure out a crowd.
Charisma: 18 (orce of personality, persuasiveness, personal magnetism, ability to lead, and physical attractiveness) I don't get it, but he does have a powerful personality, he persuades people despite being utterly full of bs, and so on.
Jeff Sessions, who inspired this post.
Race: Elf (Duh)
Alignment: Lawful? Evil. That he has very fixed principles about who should be ruling and who should be serving.
Class: Cleric, pretty sure he might be able to control the undead. Instead of healing, he causes pain and suffering.
Strength: 11
Dexterity: 15
Constitution: 18 He seems to have much stamina as he works really hard to destroy the Justice system
Intelligence: 14 He has learned how to be better at being a racist
Wisdom: 9 That SF-86 is just unwise.
Charisma: 6 He is definitely not likable.
Jared KushnerRace: Human child
Alignment: Chaotic Evil. He is just an opportunist, who is imitating his father by selling out his brother-in-law.
Class: Wizard but level 1. He has little magic and is less effective in combat.
Strength: 7
Dexterity: 6 He seems have lousy reflexes, does not really act quickly. Does he act at all?
Constitution: 7 Seems sickly
Intelligence: 5 Needed father's help to get into Harvard. Any evidence thus far of learning?
Wisdom: 10 He is not very wise, but his efforts to deflect responsibility seem to be working so he may be craftier than he seems.
Charisma: 14 While unlikable from a distance, it is hard to understand his ability to float through life thus far. People around him keep giving me more chances, so I guess he has some magnetism.
Don Jr.
Race: Human (I apologize on behalf of all humans for what he does).
Alignment: Chaotic Evil. He wants to be his dad.
Class: Thief (but of low skill)
Strength: 8
Dexterity: 5 He can't help but trip all over himself
Intelligence: 4
Wisdom: 3 Did you see him tweet?
Charisma: 5 Ewwwwwww!
Ivanka
Race: Half-Elf
Alignment: Neutral evil
Class: Wizard She can cast spells, no doubt about that.
Strength: 13
Dexterity: 16 She can move so swiftly and dance so well that none of the shit her family creates seems to stick to her.
Constitution: 17 She seems to have all of the family's stamina. She keeps at it, when one would expect her to run or hide.
Intelligence: 16 Among this group, she is a genius.
Wisdom: 12 She is wise relative to her family but just to them.
Charism: 17 She is pretty and seems to get folks to do her bidding again and again (see Drezner's post)
This has taken more time than it should (I had to research the atttributes, classes and such), so I will just summarize a few Dems:
Bill Clinton: INT 17, WIS 5, CHR 18, Chaotic Neutral
Hillary Clinton: INT 16, WIS 8, CHR 10 (good in small groups, bad in crowds), Neutral Good (persuaded by JTL)
Barak Obama: INT 18, WIS 14, CHR 18, Lawful Good
Bernie Sanders: INT 14, WIS 15, CHR 16, Chaotic Good/Neutral (not sure)
Joe Biden: INT 14, WIS 9, CHR 17, Chaotic Good
* I have not played D&D in many decades so I am probably not the best person to be doing this. However, I called this place "Semi-Spew" which could be interpreted as half-assed.
