Character Creation/Leveling

Apr 2, 2019 2:08 pm
Hello all! Please use this forum to do any/all rolling related to character creation and leveling. Please use the dice roller in the "Advanced" section of the post.

Some notes on the roller for those new to the site:

1) You can roll multiple dice on one line as follows: 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6. This allows you to make six separate rolls of 4d6.
2) Reroll Aces is NOT a feature we will use, it is for games that have you roll a die a second time if it rolls its max value. For example, if rolling 1d6, if it resulted in 1-5, your score would be 1-5. If it resulted in a 6, your score would be 6+[1d6]. This "explosion" keeps happening until the die no longer hits its max.
3) You CANNOT add different dice rolls together (such as 1d6+1d4). Doing this will cause the tool to behave differently (it will roll 1d6+1 and then 1d4, not the same thing).

Character Creation Rules
Allowed Races: Anything from the PHB, Genasi, or Goliaths are allowed.
Allowed Classes: Anything from Wizards official publications (not UA, just publications)
Allowed class options: Anything from Wizards official publications
Multiclassing: Allowed if you have a story justification
Allowed Alignment: Prefer non-evil. With good arguments, I may allow lawful evil.
HP: Max first level, then either rolled or class average whichever is higher.
Starting Equipment: Standard by class and background. If you'd prefer to not use ANY of the starting gear, you can choose to roll for gold as per the PHB.
General: Your characters all know each other at the start of the adventure, with some experience together. We will work on these connections together in this forum.

Please create your characters at Level 3

I think I'm going to stick with the kobold idea. Can go for ranged combat (hunter ranger or scout rogue) as a coward pet for another PC, especially a magic user. If he is a pet for a cleric, he can have delusional ideas about his own divine worth.

Unfortunately kobold isn't an allowed race for this game. Trying to stick with the PHB/Genasis/Goliaths. :)
Apr 2, 2019 3:53 pm
ahah sorry, I only noticed no Eberron, Ravnica, the Underdark :(
just to be sure, is the PHB/Genasis/Goliaths restriction just for the races or does it include class and subraces?

(particularly thinking UA eladrin and horizon walker for the fey-touched elf idea)

I am thinking of going half-orc paladin with knight background

Subraces can be pulled from any published WOTC source (I'd prefer no UA for this game). Classes, they just have to be in a published WOTC source (again, prefer no UA to keep thing a little more balanced).

So in that vein, the Eladrin subrace from Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes is fine.

Lwunder did you roll your stats?
Apr 2, 2019 7:24 pm
I'm going with a human fighter. I'll go with the optional noble background and be a knight.
Apr 2, 2019 7:25 pm

Yes, but not as honorable as the other one :)

You wouldn't be interested in a character tie-in would you?

As far as I'm concerned, you can start with an arcane focus without issue. Since you're planning on going Fighter 1 / Sorcerer 2 (as I recall), you'd have been doing this magic thing for a bit.

Makes sense just want to be sure.
