Oh yeah, reading your character reminded me that I forgot to state how I wanted stats to be rolled for this campaign in here. I am using the organic characters method from the D&D 3.5 dungeon master's guide p.169. In case you have not this book (and this method has not been reused in Pathfinder somewhere) here how it works.
• Roll 4d6 six times, discarding the lowest die.
• Roll them in order; first roll Str, second roll Dex, third roll Con, and so on.
• You can reroll one ability of your choice, but you have to keep the reroll, even if it is worse than the original.
• You can then swap two ability scores of your choice.
Edit:
• Due to the nature of the RNG on this forum, if you end up rolling a sub-par character (anything with a total net modifier of less than +6) then you can reroll your 1s once. If your character is still sub-par after that, simply reroll it from scratch.
This allows for some choice, but without having your ability scores exactly where you want them. Your character might have to cope with some unwanted clumsiness (just like in real life).
Also, your character made me realize that I forgot the whole favored class hp bonuses. No problem that should be a quick fix.

OK, then did I roll those stats correctly? If not, I'll reroll them...but I tried to keep track of everything in the notes.
Apr 24, 2016 3:47 am
Looks like you did.
Edit: I've allowed rolls into this thread again.
I'd rather characters' attributes be rolled here instead so I can see there were no shenanigans with the rolls.
So while I'm a at it, might was well provide an example.
Oh wow, three 9s... these are awful rolls. Rerolling 1s once then.
Okay so this gives us:
Str 16
Dex 16
Con 14
Int 11
Wis 9 13
Cha 14
Let's say the player wanted to be a Rogue, they could swap Int for Wis for a final attribute roll of:
Str 16
Dex 16
Con 14
Int 13
Wis 11
Cha 14
If players roll really crappy scores, like those ones (anything with a net modifier total below +6), reroll your 1s once. If it's still crappy after that, I'll allow to reroll from scratch.

Okay, cool. Remember to correct your AC: your character sheet still lists a +2 Dex bonus.
Edit: Also, looking at some of the options you chose I am looking up on the SRD.

Stat roll results (after the re-roll):
STR: 9
DEX: 13
CON: 8
INT: 13
WIS: 12
CHA: 11
Net modifier total is +1, I think.
I'm feeling like an archer of some sort but don't know yet if these are viable stats. Haven't taken a closer look but I like the sound of Zen Archer.
Ok, applying the rerolled 1's to my first set of rolls, here's what I've got. With a net modifier of +10 the "reroll one ability" isn't warranted. Wasn't high enough to be helpful anyway.
STR ( 5, 1 6, 1 1, 1 3 ) = 14 (+2)
DEX ( 2, 5, 2, 6 ) = 13 (+1)
CON ( 3, 1 6, 3, 2 ) = 12 (+1)
INT ( 4, 3, 5, 4 ) = 13 (+1)
WIS ( 6, 4, 2, 1 6 ) = 16 (+3)
CHA ( 4, 3, 1 6, 4 ) = 14 (+2)
Now that I've actually taken a look at the Zen Archer it looks like that WIS score is right where I need it to be.

Yeah, go ahead and reroll that Jabes. XD
Edit: Oh yeah, you guys please post a pic of your character so I can make counters out of them for the combat maps. I'll be using the same think Dex did in our DS4 games, so Jabes will be familiar with that. Basically, I put a presentation on google doc granting anyone with the link to modify it, so you'll be bale to move your tokens around and mark area of effect of spells and stuff.

Below a +6 total modifier, you can reroll that form scratch Naatkinson. Maybe I should come up with some method to avoid constantly rerolling stats when the RNG is against you. Perhaps rerolling all 1s once?
Apr 25, 2016 3:38 am
Great, that's what we'll use then. Jabes, Naat, you can reroll your 1s once. I'll go ahead and edit my previous post.

So the modified rule is:
RollsShould I reroll 1's from my first set of rolls, or reroll 1's in the 2nd set? At first I assumed the latter so I rerolled three 1's but now I realize you might want me to do the former. If that's the case then I need to reroll a few more.
I feel it very odd that at first level, they gain Perfect Strike, which is only for a limited selection of monk weapons, but other than that, the class seem okay. Also, for that build, seems you need a better Wisdom score than Dexterity score.Honestly, I haven't even checked out the class features, so I wouldn't know. I just like the way "Zen Archer" sounds. :-D

Okay, let's roll these stats !

Int 10 13
Wis 12
Cha 13
Well. Now to decide what class to pick...

I am assuming that with a net mod of 3 that i should reroll ones
Scores after rerolls
Str= 12 mod 1
Dex= 11 mod 0
Con=13 mod 1
Int=12 mod 1
Wis=15 mod 2
Cha=10 mod 0
Total mod of 5 so gonna make a new post and reroll
