Character generation

We should agree on character generation rules or define the ones for our respectful game

These are mine
Quote:

Customization: Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything variant humans and feats are allowed
Statsare 4d6 drop low and if the die rolls suck, then you have pointbuy as backup.
Level 3, multiclassing is allowed
Gear starting gear + 100 gp or 1 common magic item. A wishlist for uncommon magic items that you perhaps can borrow from your patron/organisation/mentor ect would be appreciated. But you will only borrow one item.

Agree with everything except stats. I like point buy better, there are no extreme variations. Also, in the case of point buy will we allow min-maxing? Like dropping an ability score below 10 to increase other stats.

In point-buy, all stats start at 8 and then you buy to increase them. I'm not a fan of min-maxing, especially when playing solo like this you need to be broad spected.
I have no problems with lowering stats below 8 if it is for rp reasons. I had a character will rolled stats and a con of 6. It became a memorable character much inspired by Doc Hollyday from the Tombstone movie

I think you have a point with avoiding rolling stats as solo characters should be more balanced.

Yeah, sorry, I mixed it with Pathfinder, we start at 10 there. I’m in favor of point buy and agree with you on min-maxing. I like balanced characters and this solo game will not be such a combat heavy game that we’ll need to max out certain aspects so that we have advantage on combats.

Oh an addon: We should also craft a sidekick using the sidekick rules
