Just curious on what everyone is currently playing as in their own games and what system.
My friends and I are bouncing back and forth between three games at the moment. I am playing a Pathfinder game as a Human Druid named Bjorn (N/G) with a Black Bear animal companion named Banner. An AD&D Temple of Elemental Evil campaign as a halfling Rogue named Roy Kal (N) and we just started 5ed's Hoard of the Dragon Queen and I'm playing a Half-Elf Bard named Viltan Nethein (C/G).

I'm playing a 5e C/G Half-Elf Rogue named Spar. My DM is doing a homebrew in which we all have unique companions and mine is a sound elemental so I do a lot with mimicking sounds and if I focus enough rounds I can tune into the frequency of an object to destroy it.

I'm DMing a homebrew 5e campaign with a Tiefling Paladin of Obad-Hai, a High Elf Wizard (which is really bizarre for the setting), a Gnome Ranger, and a Human Rogue. The Elf has a familiar named Fanduil (when it isn't being eaten by grumpy things) but other than that the party doesn't have much in the way of companions at the moment.
Every other Saturday we have a GURPS game that we take turns GMing. In that game we have a D&D Lich, Inspector Javere (from Les Miserables), a Jedi Knight, a Steampunk Iron Man guy (my character) and a Pokemon trainer who keep hopping through dimensions trying to put reality back together. My character started out as an Artificer and he broke a few of the basic "Don't" rules of magic. That's torn a bit of a massive hole through reality and so far we've gone through Narnia, Beowulf, and we're about to head into Star Wars. Because GURPS.

I normally DM, but I am participating in a one-on-one 5e campaign (just me and the DM, the DM is my 10yo son). The DM rolled up two characters, a dragonborn druid and a half-elf paladin. These are both "NPCs" that I control in combat.
My character is a LN human ranger. He's the 12th son of a moderately well-off merchant family who paid for his apprenticeship to an order of rangers. These rangers act as traveling barristers to the common folk. They travel from town to village and settle disputes, administer justice, and hunt bounties on monsters and/or criminal villains. While the order is not officially sanctioned nor empowered to administer jsutice by the powers that be, their judgements and decisions are considered binding by the common folk.
He got permission from his mentor to go off on his own quest for a mysterious trader he met in the local tavern. The paladin and druid were roped in too.

I am currently playing a lvl 2 Cleric of Tymora in a 5th ed homebrew game. I am loving my guy, but I want to multiclass him with a Warlock. I am afraid it would OP him a bit and I couldn't make it make sense how he has both classes. Anyone have suggestions?

Narratively speaking, Warlock's pretty dead simple to work on. The PHB makes it sound like no one (or at least not most) chooses to be a warlock. They happen upon some greater creature's interest and that fey/fiend/alien goes "Hey! You're my warlock now." They might get a chance to refuse, but then again they might not. I don't really recall anything in the PHB that implies that the PC has to agree with becoming a warlock. They just have to be in the right place at the right time and doing something mildly interesting/entertaining to the outsider.
Balance-wise it depends on the group. It's my experience that there's usually one (sometimes two) PC who's noticeably better than the others when it comes to reducing another entity's HP. I would say that that much is perfectly fine, at least in theory. The DM should be able to balance for it with a few adjustments. The problem is if it impairs other player's enjoyment. If another player really enjoys the virtual glory of being the Big Bad in the party then that might tread on their proverbial shoes a bit. It's probably nothing that can't be cleared up by asking a few questions when everyone's gathered 'round before or after a session.
