Character creation

I have submitted Chase for your look over. I will add the background once I get some info from you about the geography.

Well, do you want to create the details of your homeland together, or do you want something that is Greyhawk/Oerth-specific? We have a mixture of both from all the characters that are/have been in this campaign so far.

Also, what is Chase's favored terrain? The country he's from won't have been limited to just one type of terrain, so feel free to choose whichever terrain you envision for the character.

Favored terrain is forest , I will use Greyhawk but where do I get that info? The Burneal Forest region?

I wrote his background if you would look it over and let me know if I need to tweek it.

Actually I want to save my homeland but Joseph wants me eliminated for what I know of his plot with King George so that is why I am on the run. Give time for the heat to cool off a bit so I can then go back gather the wardens and expose Joseph. Maybe make some allies along the way to help.

I'm going to roll the old school way to see what kind of character I get....

*EDIT*

Str: 11
Dex: 13
Con: 11
Int: 12
Wis: 10
Cha: 10

Interesting....

Manthis, male Human

With a 14, 12, 12, 11, 9, 6 could I have a reroll? Be nice if the total was above average at least.

As I said to others when they've asked similar questions previously, I encourage you to give your nascent creation a try!

I'll also point out that even without racial modifiers, that set of scores (with modifiers of 0, +1, +1, -2, +2, -1) has a net +1 for bonuses, better than the average of 10-11 scores across the board. A human would get you a net +3, and other races could get you a net +4 (depending on where you assign your rolls).

Cool it is. :)

Manthis:
Non-Racial: 14, 12, 12, 11, 9, 6 (10.6 Average, +1)
With Racial: 15, 13, 13, 12, 10, 7 (11.6 Average, +3)

Average:
Non-Racial: 4d6h3 (12.2 Average, +6), 3d6 (10.5 Average, +0)
With Racial: 4d6h3 (13.2 Average, +6), 3d6 (11.5 Average, +0)

Smiles. Manthis is applied & completed. Ready for play.

I'm gonna live dangerously. I'm up for a little challenge.

Theran is roughly in the same boat, so at least you won't be alone.

Character is submitted. Just let me know where you want me.

@DireHalfling - I like Rosemary! A few comments on the sheet of things that should be corrected/added:
- please make the character public
- you'll start with Inspiration (so that should be "1")
- the proficiency bonus should be +2; the various proficient skills should update with the bonus once you enter it (right now those skill totals are less than they should be)
- the 1H damage for the Baker's paddle should be 1d8.
- Baker's tools should be in your inventory
- your weapons should be in your inventory, too
- you should have a background trait, ideal, bond, and flaw. The default character sheet on GP doesn't have a dedicated space for it, so you can add those under "Notes"

Finally, it's not required, but you might enjoy including a Motivation for Rosemary: why she got into adventuring and joined Dungeon Busters (as described in this post under "Motivations".

@WanderOne - Thanks for submitting Manthis! A few comments on the sheet:

- please make the character public
- Manthis should start with Inspiration (so that should be "1")
- the damage for the greatsword should be 2d6+2
- Something to consider: how did "Love" serve as his motivation to begin adventuring? Did he chase after an adventurer? Did he have a crush on Cecily? Or was he fleeing a love affair that went sour in the circus? How (if at all) does this relate to the favor he has kept in his inventory?
- I'm not sure that the circus skills you've added to your skill list (Dancer, Fire-eater, Tumbler) will ever come into play, as they're already covered by the existing Performance and Acrobatics skills, but they're fine for flavor if you'd like to keep them.

It would also be nice to have a description of Manthis' costume on your sheet; I'm sure it will be revealed in play eventually.

Can fix public
Love to add Inspiration
Fix damage. Looked up wrong weapon.
I will rethink the motivation. I didn't realize it was for joining.
I keep those items on skill list for tracking purposes. Just me.

# That and if for example, not interest how I play shawm for audience (CHA) but instead want to know my skill using the instrument then the skill (DEX) listing would show that. Otherwise just is Perform for audiences.

I will see if I can locate a picture. Winks. Of the custom.

Edit: Altered love to revenge and update character history some.I was thinking black but red is more flashy. Hard to find picture of mask & cape without going kid's stuff or batman.

Edit: Any cool ideas for a troupe name?

Good ideas? Well, I leave that for you to judge. But "Manthis" evoked an insect-like stage name - maybe the other members of the troupe had similar names/costumes, like Suppaida, Fwyrm, and Lady Thug? Whether they did or not, the troupe might have been called the "Fantastic Fearless Fireflies"...
