Does JC Denton from Deus Ex count?
If not. Elf Rouge with + 10 in Big Weapons and Melee (if that counts?)

What RPG class would you be in the event of a zombie apocalypse?

It's been a while since I've looked at my Players Handbook, but doesn't the holy avenger have some effects against undead? Maybe I'm not remembering it correctly, but never the less, if I am I want those zombies to die the second that blades strike them.Eponet said:
He didn't say WHAT kind of zombies, did he? He could mean old-school zombies which were proper undead, dragged straight from hell.
Also, isn't alignment based on your actions as well as intent? So in 3e terms, they'd be neutral evil, if you ask me.
A stealth class. Getting around unnoticed would make life considerably easier. And you could set up traps and things.
Paladin, Being able to cleanse wounds, heal myself, turn invulnerable then warp away using a magic stone, not to mention cleanse the zombie horde with some holy wrath...
And if that fails a Mage on the roof of a nearby building, casting Blizzard and Flame strike off of the roof.
And then if THAT fails, Barbarian from the Diablo series.

Alright, I see the sense in your response. Every power has it's limit and all. But if I'm a Necromancer (in the traditional "Bring the long deceased back to un-life" sense)... who's going to mess with reanimated Dinosaurs and Skeletons? Sure the zombies are an initial wave, but when a 30-foot, skeletal, tooth-filled, dinosaur jaw comes ripping at you... It's panties shitting time.
And if that doesn't work, I'll still be able to reanimate your best trench/bunker buddy who just died in your arms as you wept sweet remorse over his corpse and swore to never forget him and all the great battle memories you shared.
Check and Mate.

Some sort of hunter/ranger class for sure. Hit and run always from a distance, always on the move and able to scrounge up food wherever I can. Set up traps and find shelter fairly easily, have a couple German Shepherds as my animal companions. And be able to hide when needed.
Arcane Warrior!
Plate armor and magic in a glorious combination! They can't bite or scratch me and I can just cut a swathe of destruction with my wide-range of spells.

I would be a mage that specializes in mind control of weaker willed beings, which would be anything without magical abilities pretty much. This way I could control the Zombies and turn it into my own game of Zombie Deathmatch: Speed and Claws. That is a game I should work on making.
Obviously the most uber class would be average high school girl, but maybe that doesn't count as a class hmm, ok, nekoromancer then the combined powers of a cat and a necromancer, how can I fail (I can always get featured on lolcats if I fail winwin) my only weakness would be catnip.
Probably necromancer, for the purpose of self defense. And because having my own zombie army would be awesome.
Or more realistically, I'd be a stealth based character. Crossbow, of course.

Mage. After I've wrapped up the zombies, I'll use my power to bend reality to my whim to bring the still breathing humans into line under my benevolent rule, and they'll love me for it.
Cleric obviously. Or if we're talking DDO rules, a Paladin since they get Turn Undead in addition to being able to utterly destroy anything that bleeds. A Paladin doesn't need allegiance to some sun deity either to cast, only dedication to his Epic Quest. Also, I think it's funny how logic follows that spells and items that normally restore health can damage undead. I WTF'd when a phoenix down killed the zombie boss in FF7, and I'm WTF'ing now. Apparently aspirin will give a zombie a headache to die for...
