Character Creation

Jul 29, 2019 2:13 pm
Characters start at level 1.
Distribute these for starting ability scores: 15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8.
We will be using color alignment instead of the traditional system.
Available races are those detailed in the Ixalan guide, but exceptions might be available.

If you have any questions about creating your character, post them here.

Current Composition:

Sun Empire:
BiffRosencrantz ~ Hurkor Niggletoor, Human Barbarian (Red-White)
Machiabelly ~ Itzel, Human Cleric of Tilonalli (Red)
optimumsquare ~ Te'e'no, Human Paladin (White-Green)

Legion of Dusk:
DarkReaver1998 ~ Lyra Dawnstalker, Vampire Monk (Blue-Black)
RoAries ~ Caprio Adonnis, Vampire Bard (White-Black-Red)
Squadfather44 ~ Jergen Rohmner, Vampire Paladin (White-Black)

River Heralds:
Khulod ~ Mishana, Merfolk Druid (Green)

Brazen Coalition:
discourage ~ Aglaophonos, Siren Bard (Red-Green)
GeneCortess ~ Darastrix the Red, Human Druid (Black-Green)

Looks like we're leaning toward Sun Empire at the moment as the dominant faction. This could lead to some interesting political issues if we maintain a large minority from the Legion of Dusk. I haven't heard from a couple of players, so we'll see how things shake out in the next couple of days.

Would my character idea work as is or do you think I need to change anything?

If the group is open to more of a variety, I can switch my Vampire Fighter to a Vampire Paladin.

I'm fine with that.

Is a Lizardfolk good? What would be a good Background (???) for swamp loving Lizardfolk Druid.

Human cleric of Tilonalli. Tempest.
Humans get the plus one for each stat, right?

Sorry...blue is my colour

Not without a good reason for a Lizardfolk to be in Ixalan. Look through the Planeshift Guide for good background recommendations.

Majestic! And yes, humans are built as per the player's handbook.

"Tilonalli is the Burning Sun, associated with ferocity, fire, and passion. It is associated with anger and love, as well as the hot season."

Sounds Red to me, but you could persuade me to Blue-Red.

You are right. I was never a two coloured player. Red it is

Hmm.. Is the human variant available? Either way I'm going with a human druid. :)

Hello everyone. I recognize some of you. I was really pulled in by the line in the guide where it says that the paladins of the sun empire ride dinosaurs, so that's my character concept right there. I was originally going to make him straight white, but as I think about it more, I really like the dino aspect so I'm going to go white-green. More detailed story to come.

P.S. Ultimate character goal is to ride a t-rex into battle

Submitted a character.
Haven't done weapons or gear yet.
Are we starting as slaves? If so, I won't bother with gear.

Change Vampire or Merfolk to Itzocan, since you're from the Sun Empire.

Do your equipment and weapons, your character will be able to retrieve their gear.

I apologize for not being familiar with the 5e character sheets. Would everyone put their color alignment right after their race, i.e. Smurf (Blue)
