Gotcha. I use the stats I rolled up above right? I rolled four 16's, a 14, and a 12. Is that not what I use? I'll fix it all tonight.

We roll 4d6 but drop the lowest die of those 4. For example, if you rolled 3,4,5,6 you would drop the 3 for a net roll of 15 rather than 18. There isn't a way to do the "drop the lowest die" in the roll tool, so we have to do that manually.

You can always enter the dice in the field as "1d6, 1d6, 1d6, 1d6" without the quotation marks...

(I do not know how to post pictures)

An ex-solider, Owen Daughtery used to be a very talented Scout for the King’s army. He has always lived in and around the Marian Town area, and he loves his home. In fact, he typically takes it upon himself to hunt dangerous creatures or animals around the town, in order to ensure the local’s safety outside the town proper. As such he has never lost an edge with his crossbow, even after retiring.Rumors about his early retirement swim about the town, but no clear cut reason has ever surfaced. The best guess is that he had a falling out with a superior officer.
He only just returned to town when he heard about the mess that befell it at the jail, and promptly volunteered to take help take word to the king. Demons were not something he is used to dealing with, and would rather not see his home burn.

(Hope the sheet is fixed, let me know what else I need to do.)

I edited your sheet, see the weapon attacks. Let me know if you disagree with my math.

Also, there isn't a spot to keep track of your spells, so maybe keep that in your notes (spells per day, max and spells used).

Otherwise, looked great!

Thank you that works fine. Seems I am confused, what is the difference between attack bonus and damage?
Also, does that mean I can get started or do you need to introduce me first?

I suggest reading about combat in chapter 9 of the PHB, pp. 189-200 (but at least, specifically, p. 193 "Making An Attack")

If you make a crossbow attack, you would add the "to hit" roll and the damage roll to the post. The "to hit" roll is 1d20 plus the bonus (+7 for you) and the damage is 1d10+3. Separating them by a comma allows you to do it in one line.

This post had such a roll for an example.

Rolls

Crossbow attack - (1d20+7, 1d10+3)

1d20+7 : (12) + 7 = 19

1d10+3 : (3) + 3 = 6

I'll arbitrate the effect of each attack, and let you know when to roll what. As we stand, jump into the game!

Cool. I'll do that. Do I add prof to the attack bonus of the damage?
Sep 9, 2016 1:59 am
Welcome Nikcollini!

Prof is only added to the attack roll, not damage.

Alright, I hope I do this correctly.

Rolls

Stats - (4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6)

4d6 : (5161) = 13

4d6 : (5145) = 15

4d6 : (2324) = 11

4d6 : (1341) = 9

4d6 : (1456) = 16

4d6 : (3513) = 12

Dec 24, 2016 11:04 pm
Cool so it looks like 12, 14, 9, 8, 15, 11. Not the greatest, but not too shabby. I'll post a small backstory after filling in my stats.

Hey Toastymalone. I've approved your character for now, but let me know when you're finished editing it and I'll review it. Or let us know if you have any questions about GP mechanics.
Dec 24, 2016 11:16 pm
Awesome, I'll PM you when I've finished. I realized I should probably roll my health here too, so here goes.

Rolls

HP - (1d8, 1d8, 1d8)

1d8 : (5) = 5

1d8 : (5) = 5

1d8 : (7) = 7

There are some things you'll need to keep track of in the notes section, or as a "feat/ability". Like spell slots maximum and remaining, and spells prepared. The latter you could denote with a star in the spell name.

A devoted young priest of Apollo, lord of light. (Human Cleric (Light Domain), Acolyte Background)

Abandoned on the great, ivory steps of the Temple of Apollo as a boy, Fritz was accepted into the monastic order, and has lived his entire life nestled in the community of monks and holy men. Perhaps this cloistered lifestyle is to blame for his overwhelming desire to unshackle himself from the shelter of the church. To shine the light of Apollo on the rest of the world. To shine his own light on the rest of the world.

Fritz is a young man in his early twenties, with youthful features. His hair is a slightly curly dark blonde, with a regal sheen. His eyes are dark and harsh, in spite of the rest of his face. He generally wears a white, hooded robe, with gold ornamentation over his protective gear, and a necklace with a small Delphic tripod, signifying his allegiance to Apollo.

A cleric! Oh blessed day! A cleric!

Your character looks good, except AC s/b 16 with the shield.

Also, since you're not level 1, you should have better gear - take 420 gp in extra wealth.

Why thank you.
