Hello everyone!
Sorry I didn't join in on the fun in time!
I'm almost done with my character sheet, need to figure out some numbers and maybe fix a couple of things.
I'd probably need to post something so y'all can see what my character is. Small spoiler - it's a tiefling girl, I stole some pic off the internet for now but will probably paint something myself.

I just discovered this on my own and was on my way to this exact forum to ask if I understood it correctly! Ha-ha!
Thank you, that helps!

So does it mean I add to my stealth proficiency of [+2] another {+2}, and then multiply my first proficiency [+2] x2? Also, the proficiency itself depends on character level, right?

If you take proficiency and expetise on stealth, then yes :)) two from.your dexterity bonus and 2x2 for proficiency with expertise.

And yes that's level dependant.

Thanks for helping Pitrio! I'll look over things latest Tuesday.

How exactly does one calculate dexterity bonus, or any attribute bonus to an action?

The actual calculation is (ability score - 10) / 2. But it's more convenient to use the chart in the rulebook -- page 9 of the basic rules. And it looks like the bonuses are auto-calculated on our character sheets as well.

Just up-dated Hilmar's character sheet with ideal and his back story. Hope you don't mind my plagiarising an extract from the Setting :)

Looks good Mike!

I have another question.
How do I calculate an attack bonus for my weapons?

And also, Len, could you look through my character sheet, I'm pretty sure there still are other things I missed/forgot about.

Hey Jusika! Euphoria is looking very complete!

Attacking with ranged weapons and finesse melee weapons (rapiers, daggers, whips) will be your dexterity modifier plus your proficiency bonus (if you are proficient with the weapons, which you are). With a dex mod of +2 and a proficiency bonus of +2 your total attack bonus is +4.

The same weapons get a damage bonus based on your dex mod, so your damage bonus is +2.

This is a little lower than we estimated but is only a difference of 5% chance to hit and 1 point of damage. However, if you would like to slide that +1 Intelligence over to your Dexterity, this is now an optional rule and I don't mind if you (or anyone else) wants to use it.

If you like the idea of Euphoria having an above-average intellect, the +4 is still strong! Mechanically the difference a 10 and 11 intelligence is minimal. The only mechanical advantage is it is easier to upgrade down the road. But roleplay-wise, an 11 can mean something!

Hope this helps :)

The more powerful you are, the duller the game gets IMO. So I'm happy with how things are. :>

Nope, I'm fine as it is!

Thank you for being so helpful!~

Just thought, shall I add something to the character sheet about Hilmar's physical appearance? I imagine him as 25, 5'11", slim build with thin arms (strength of 9).
