I think a chair or table that has been true polymorphed into anything sentient would make for a very fun experience.
I have considered throwing myself into the game as a wild magic sorcerer, with the Far Traveler background. I would have to ask a DM if skills could be based off of my experience rather than class-given skills. Maybe lose out on a couple things to compensate for a legal usage of metagaming.
My newest charecter build is "Kubo" the tabaxi barbarian. Outlander background because he is from a distinct more physical tabaxi tribe. Took way of the tiger totem warrior from the scag for the long jump because my dm decided to work with me for things like stealth leap attacks etc. he is 5 barbarian now and will soon take levels rouge for sneak die and good stealth die. a barbarian jump with stealth attack is kinda fun.
Warforged Bard that acts as a Karaoke machine, or boom box. Their job is to sit in a corner of the tavern all day, playing music perfectly as they've heard it before, not eating, drinking, sleeping, or speaking.

Please check out my homebrew, I would appreciate feedback:
A battle Smith artificer variant human lvl 5, crossbow master, sharpshooter, repeating shot infusion, with 20 int could fire a hand crossbow 3 times in a single turn dealing 1d6+16 each with a +3 to hit still
A barbarian born into nobility, he can be formal as easily as he can rip apart enemies on the battlefield.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone, there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
A young 18 year old Lightfoot halfling "Cage Tealeaf" with faceless background. One day clueless halfling decides he will chase his dream and become a hero.... that is till he was laughed out of the room. Alas with his new identity as "The Great Swifty" and a small orange cut-out cardboard fox mask which gives him enough confidence to fight. He goes out to become the hero..... that nobody asked for. Only Sheela knows where this Halfling ranger will end up.
I once made a variant human paladin with the tavern brawler feat. Her entire thing was "Anything's a weapon if you're creative enough (and have the favor of the gods). I once killed a man with a blade of grass."
Also, I have an idea for an aasimar draconic ancestry sorcerer, or inversely, a dragonborn divine soul sorcerer. Like "Yes, I'm what you get when a dragonborn paladin gets really close to their god. No, don't ask me how that happened, I don't want to know."
This is a zany character idea I have which I highly doubt I will ever get a chance to play. It is a Dwarf Cavalier Garinor whose mount is a Stench Kow. His background is a sort of Uchin-Knight mix. He grew up poor but was knighted after saving a high ranking knight during a battle he fought in. After this event he was granted wealth and a Coat of Arms. The thing is Garinor grew up homeless on the streets and is still a huge slob who barely bathes even though now he has a title. While he is gross and uncouth he is extremely LG and noble. After a Abyssal cult is arrested Garinor pleads for nobles not to kill the cults pack animal, a Stench Kow. No one was willing to let it live unless someone was willing to take it so he agrees. Everyone thinks Garinor is absolutely insane but he and the animal grow close she (now named Bishop aka Stinking Bishop) becomes his loyal mount. He has advantage against getting poisoned by her stench due to being a Dwarf but still has to make rolls before every combat so when mounted he is either lethal or horrendous.
My hermaphrodite Lizardfolk Necromancer. The Lizardfolk ideology of "leave nothing to waste" plays in quite nicely of a necromancers raising the dead who's set to be shaman of his people. And that is my character: King Gizzard, the lizard wizard.
Mearaid is a wild magic sorceror who exploded with excitement (literally!) at her 11th birthday party. She's blotted out all memory of it and has decided that she's never going to grow up. She acts as if she's 8 or 9 despite being in her mid-20s.
But there's another Mearaid deep inside. And she does remember. And she's very afraid.
Bonus points if you play her as a high charisma, cute as a button halfling.

I have a homeless warlock that prefers sleeping in alleys covered in newspaper than inns. He went crazy and his patron is an oven mitt puppet he keeps on one hand.
Ok, as a perpetual DM, I have a boatload of characters I designed but never had a chance to play, so feel free to borrow any of these ideas if you want.
A Human Warlock of the Fey who is convinced that there is a worldwide conspiracy on the subject of gods. He trusts his few close friends, but suspects everyone else as a potential member of the global plot. He has the Eldrich Sight invocation, and he constantly casts detect magic on EVERYTHING. On his horse, on his food, on the innkeeper serving him a drink. Nothing is exempt.
A wizard who is an accomplished lawyer. The wizard has angered several Djinni by finding loopholes in their contracts with mortals and in consequently now on the run trying to avoid them.
A Water Genasi Cleric who made up her own god and somehow got magic. She is currently developing her religion and occasionally chats with her god before breakfast.
A Half-Elf Bard who thinks he's the next Mozart. He's half-deaf, a terrible musician, and is offended when others critique his music.
A Deep Gnome Wizard who constantly posts wanted posters of the whole party, including himself, for various things. Especially enjoys it when the supposed crime is embarrassing.
My personal favorite, a Wood Elf Druid of the Land who believes in every deity, and invokes them for basically everything. Invokes a god of weather if it's raining, invokes a god of luck if he's gambling, invokes a god of weather if it's drizzling. Really flippin' annoys the gods, because he invokes them every minute or so. The really minor gods are kinda flattered at the attention, though, as Trallion, God of Spoons, is never prayed to or invoked, so the Druid has 20 or so really obscure gods who love him for giving them attention.
A lizardfolk with the Noble background... whose only title is "Descendant of <insert ancient Lizardfolk hero here>", and whose writ of pedigree is just indecipherable gibberish to those who are not lizardfolk.

Trying to get your physical content on Beyond is like going to Microsoft and saying "I have a physical Playstation disk, give me a digital Xbox version!"
Kargoth was a perfectly normal member of his Hobgoblin clan until his scouting party came across a dying Paladin of Pelor. The shiny armour, weapon and shield called to him and he wasted no time in assisting the paladin on his journey to his god.
However, back at camp, he suffered endless ridicule for his "prettiness" which eventually forced him into exile. The garb of a paladin did have an unexpected benefit. It seemed that the weakling humans were prepared to overlook his hobgoblininess when they saw that he was a paladin of the blessed god Pelor.
He is now trapped. If he wants to keep the shiny pretties and access to potentially more plunder from the pathetic humans then he must keep up his disguise as an abhorrent paladin of goodness *spits*
An exploration of personal greed (evil) when juxtaposed against the Hobgoblin "saving face" feature. Will having to behave as a paladin actually make him a paladin? What is good? What is evil? Where is the line and who is the arbiter?
Pick a (non-paladin) class and see how long you can keep it hidden from your party!

Me and my friend did something similar with a dual wielder feat paladin (Lances) riding on a moon circle druid.
