Hmmmm... After looking over a few, I think I'd like Shadow Step from Way of Shadow Monk. Seems like it would be fun, jumping around from darkness to darkness. I wouldn't hate Purity of Body either. It would help overcome some genetic issues, although as a whole diseases aren't too much of an issue to me.

Look at what you've done. You spoiled it. You have nobody to blame but yourself. Go sit and think about your actions.
Don't be mean. Rudeness is a vicious cycle, and it has to stop somewhere. Exceptions for things that are funny. Go to the current Competition of the Finest 'Brews! It's a cool place where cool people make cool things.

Heh...it's kinna cheating, but the 'Master of Myriad Forms' Eldritch Incantation would be a primo choice. Not only could I solve gender issues freely as I pleased, but hey - gills! Fishgirl activate!
Question of the day: What class or subclass ability do you want in real life - No spell casting!
How has no one mentioned Wild Shape yet?
This wins hands down IMO, especially if you can be a Moonie. Flying as a eagle, making muggers dirty thier pants as a gorilla, getting irradiated & selling superpowers as a spider, the possibilities are nearly endless.
Now see, I thought the rules was no magic. All these picked things are magic…
I need clarification from the DM, please…

Nope! It was specified as no spellcasting. Because really, if it isn't magic, then it isn't special enough to talk about IMO. Lots of us have Expertise in a skill or two, for example, and 99.44% of us are not world-saving adventurer types.

Class feature for casters is spells. I was looking for class features that were not spell casting. Otherwise pretty much everybody would pick spell casting. There are already a bunch of posts asking what spell you would want to cast in real life.

Ok. Hear me out. Bard proficiency’s. I mean you get to use swords, sing like a pop star, and best of all play the guitar like literal boss. I mean, hasn’t everyone dreamed of being to play the guitar and just absolutely shredding the first cords of sweet child of mine.

Nah, who am I kidding. Probably Portent. Imagine how far you could go, knowing exactly which risks would pay off.
Yes, yes, yes! Portent is one of the most powerful abilities in the game, and it would be way more powerful in real life since the feature would allow you to decide what you succeed on and what others fail on (unless it’s a skill challenge, in which case you would still be able to drastically alter the chances of success).
I was told I am already kinda like this, but given what I do it would make my life (and job security) much easier, lol

Monster I would like to play:
Nothic. These pesky creatures are awesome and have tons of role-playing potential. Not only that, but they can learn other people's secrets, which would be a very fun ability to use on party members you dislike...
Faerie Dragon. I love voicing these creatures as a Dungeon Master, but they have all sorts of troublemaking features and can be used to annoy any and every party. What's not to love?
Monster I would dislike playing:
Quipper. They have intelligence 1 and can't even go on land. Yeesh.

Um, Dragon, because i could stop having to negotiate the human mores and norms and just breathe out all my rage and vengeance and get rich in the process. I mean, what is not to love about being what I already am (albeit a Wood Dragon, lol).
I would absolutely hate to be a lemure. I mean, not only do you get crunched on by everything, but then you come back over and over again? Nah, pass.
Oh, outside the big guns and the least of them?
Um, I wouldn’t mind being a Sphinx, because flight, awesome powers, knowing riddles (which is already a problem for me)/ Yeah, cool.
Would not want to be a manticore. I would be stinging myself by accident all the time.

Visions of the Past, that way I could act as a completely inadmissible-in-court detective, or a petty psychic.
