although maybe the hairy-foot wearing hobbit mc is probably taking the piss, its pretty clear that the intention of at least some of these guys is not to make fun of or parody mainstream rap, but to take rap as a means of expression to talk about their peculiar and oft-ridiculed existence. serious or not, i can’t help but take issue with the purple-mask wearing mc declaring that rap is just like an attribute in d&d - “you might have a 3 and then you can’t rap, or you might have an 18, and then you’d be a great rapper.” i’m not sure if this is true, i would argue that a score of 18 (charisma presumably) would simply give you a charisma bonus to your performance skill, and that your proficiency at rapping would be more directly related to how many ranks you had put into that particular skill, what level bard you are, circumstance modifiers. what i’m saying is make sure you clear it with your dm before the game session.
