Do we know what type of Dragon it is? Also could you tell me a little more about the town so I can try and fit my character into whats there?

The Dragon is somewhat mysterious and not often spotted. (The tribute is left in a cave, rather than given to it on a public ceremony.) Rumor varies, but it may be a lighter metallic (brass, copper, gold).

The town is smallish, about fifty families. Situated between hot, dry mountains and the edge of a salty sea (semi-tropical), the main industries are fishing, gathering salt for export, and handycraftsmanship. The reason for the latter is that the dragons tribute demands include hand crafted items, so over fifty years, the town has developed marketable skill. Naturally, the townsfolk often grumble that the value of the tribute would make all the difference in their well being.

A further industry is shallow water barge shipping along the coast.

I should add that because the town isn't very large, some of the PCs may be from other places. Perhaps you're here temporarily (seeking opportunities and adventure) or maybe you have family here.

The town is called Allaya's Cove, by the way.

Right that should do nicely, thanks. Also do you mind if I roll for stats?

My concepts keep evolving. At this point I am thinking of a Kobold rouge that develops a relationship with a dragon patron. The Kobold in question has kleptomania, particularly for anything its patron it might like. I like the idea of a bronze kobold being hatched and then being exiled from his original group. After his exile he then tries to locate a patron. Once he finds one, I imagine they agree he only steals from bad people. He would be attracted to the town hoping to find his patron. Its late here and I am not being super clear but I think you get what I am going for.

Sure, you can roll for stats. Do that in this forum. If you're unsure, click the Advanced button below and Add a Basic die roll, then put a Reason in (can't be blank) and the dice to Roll.

Dice can have positive or negative modifiers (such as 1d20+4 or 1d6-1), but you can't add two kinds of dice together (such as 1d8+1d4+2). Multiple dice rolls can be added to a post, and multiple rolls in the same line of separated by commas.

I have updated my concept in my last post. Lets try the rolls to see what is going on there.

TEST

Well that seemed to work fine. Lets roll for stats.

So we have the following if I am not wrong.

18 (+4)
18 (+4)
9 (-1)
12 (+1)
7 (-2)
9 (-1)

Does that sound about right?

Looks right to me.

ill see if i cant find the "guidelines" that one of the players posted to me when i was first learning also. standby

so how do you want dem stats boss?
4d6 Drop lowest?
3d6 reroll 1's
4d6 reroll 1's
plain 3d6
point buy
or stat array?

4d6 drop the lowest. If that sucks, you can take the standard array (15,14,13,12,10,8. IIRC).

Appreciate the invite Qralloq. For character creation I'm not too committed to one class at the moment (right now monk or whispers Bard looks fun), I'll go ahead and roll stats first.

11, 14, 13, 10, 16, 13. I'll take it.

After thinking it over more this morning a Copper Kobold that is looking to become an Arcane Trickster makes more sense.

ok dokey RNG gods, i becheech thee to help give me good rolls this time :)
15
14
10

Gasp, i've done more with worse though :,(

Not terrible, but you can take the standard array if you want, add mentioned earlier.

Sphhaaaa, its not the worst i've had.
Are there any race restrictions?

I feel like thats how a religion starts ;)
