When you consider how long The Office lasted and how many absurd shenanigans everyone in the office managed to get up to in those nine years, it's actually a little surprising that they never had an episode where everyone in the office participated in their own little Dungeons & Dragons tournament. It's a group activity that seems like it'd be right up their alley, and it's a scenario that would inevitably lead to a lot of hilarious hijinks.

But if the characters in The Office were playing a round of Dungeons & Dragons, what class of character would they choose? Or more importantly, what class of character would they most likely naturally excel as? Sometimes the character class that someone would choose isn't the one they're best suited to, but if The Office characters had to be sorted into their D&D character classes then these are the choices that seem like perfect fits for all of them.

Darryl Philbin - Fighter

Darryl actually managed to work his way up from the Dunder Mifflin warehouse to be one of the best and brightest employees in the office. However, to be fair, even though Darryl was great, he didn't exactly have much stiff competition. Darryl is a pretty fantastic combination of physical skill and natural intelligence, which makes him a great fit for the Fighter class in Dungeons & Dragons. Obviously the Fighter's greatest strength is their literal strength, but they're such formidable warriors because they understand how to utilize all of their natural born talents, how to hone their skills, and how to skew a situation to play to their strengths instead of their weaknesses.

Ryan Howard - Warlock

At the start of The Office Ryan Howard seemed like a fairly introverted, painfully average guy. But by some bizarre miracle, Ryan managed to work his way up to the top tier of Dunder Mifflin's corporate ladder astonishingly quickly. And then his crash down from that ultimate (and sometimes literal) high happened even faster.

Obviously no one can say for sure how he managed to do that, but in the context of the Dungeons & Dragons world he obviously must have sold himself to a demon in order to get where he got so fast. If Ryan were a D&D class, he'd have to be a Warlock.

Toby Flenderson - Monk

Toby in The Office Goodbye Michael

Out of all of the Dungeons & Dragons character classes the Monk probably gets the worst rap, which is why the office Monk would have to be Toby. Monks certainly have their appealing qualities just as any other character class does, but if we're being real then they honestly are the lonely sad-sacks of the D&D universe. Toby didn't deserve to be banished to the office annex for the entirety of his career, but hopefully he was able to channel his inner Monk and find some kind of meditative peace there. Even with Kelly right next to him all the time.

Creed Bratton - Sorcerer

Creed Bratton isn't just a character who would be a Sorcerer in Dungeons & Dragons, he's a character that we wouldn't have too much trouble believing was a Sorcerer in real life. Creed's brand of terrifying mysticism is unlike anything most people have ever really seen, and it's hard to know whether he's on the edge of genius or madness. But one thing is clear, he doesn't draw his energy or inspiration from anything external. In fact, he seems to be barely cognizant of the world around him. Creed is a unique spirit who seems to be tapped into something that no one else can sense, and that all comes from within.

Stanley Hudson - Druid

The Druid character class as it applies to Stanley Hudson might be hard to understand at first glance, but hear us out. Druids are character who draw their mystical power and energy from nature. They like to be one with the trees, if you will.

And Stanley is kind of like a tree himself. He barely makes noise and he really doesn't like to move. Plus, although Stanley might not seem like the woodsy type it's pretty much canon fact that he at least likes plants more than he likes other people, so Druid is certainly the best fit for him.

Andy Bernard - Rogue

Rogues are a very skilled and talented fighter in the world of D&D, but what distinguishes them from all of the other classes is their ability to adapt to every situation, and their ability to use trickery to fool their enemies. And that suits Andy Bernard pretty strongly, if we do say so ourselves. Andy excels at presenting himself as a very strait laced and by the book dude, but he is willing to be very underhanded and manipulative in order to get people to believe his image. He's certainly not above straight up lying to make people believe what he wants them to believe either.

Pam Beesly - Cleric

The Office

It's actually nuts to think about the fact that Pam Beesly was a mere administrative assistant for Dunder Mifflin for quite so long, because there were few people more intelligent and more understanding of the business itself than Pam was. But because of the role that Pam played for so long, she kind of has to be a cleric. I mean, she was literally doing clerical work for Dunder Mifflin. D&D's clerics are typically very devoted to whatever cause that they're working for, and the same obviously can't be said when it comes to Pam and Dunder Mifflin, but she's still at least getting the job done.

Jim Halpert - Bard

Jim Halpert's most obvious personality trait is his considerable wit, so there's no way that he could be anything other than the Bard in Dungeons & Dragons. They're a very skilled and flexible warrior, but it's their cleverness and charisma that they rely on more than anything else.

Jim was always one of the best employees at the Dunder Mifflin Scranton office, but it was clear that he always felt a calling to do something different, something that inspired him. By the end of the series he succeeded in that, just as we would expect of any good Bard.

Dwight Schrute - Wizard

Dwight in The Office Spinoff The Farm

Dwight Schrute undoubtedly would have been the most intrigued and inspired by the magic-using classes of the Dungeons & Dragons characters, and out of those magic-users it seems like the Wizard class would have been the best fit for Dwight. Wizards are capable of many magics, but what distinguishes the Wizard from a Warlock or Sorcerer is that their magic is learned instead of innate or gained in a devil's bargain. And since Dwight has already demonstrated an encyclopedic knowledge of Harry Potter, it seems safe to say that he already has enough of a magical education to exceed as a Wizard in D&D.

Michael Scott - Barbarian

In the world of Dungeons & Dragons, the Barbarian class of fighters are very blunt instruments. They're powerful, but primitive, which seems like a pretty apt analogy for Michael Scott. Michael is the regional manager of Dunder Mifflin Scranton even though he really shouldn't be, and his ability to actually think seems to be nearly nonexistent. Michael does what he wants whenever he actually decides to do something, but often times his choices don't seem to have a lot of basis in logic or reality. Barbarians seem to be almost as one dimensional as Michael's mind is, so if he existed in the world of D&D that would undoubtedly be his class.
