Character Creation

Jul 24, 2016 5:31 pm
This thread is for discussing what type of characters you'd like to play and how to go about creating them. For those new to either D&D 5E and/or Gamer's Plane I have a thread that may help a bit in one of my other games (which is being run for a few people that are completely new to RPGs and PbP): Szemely's Character Creation Guide

For this game anything in the Player's Handbook, Sword Coast Adventurer's Guide, or Hoard of the Dragon Queen is fair game. Attributes should be rolled in this forum so that we can all congratulate you on your awesome luck or mock your newly created sickly character.

1. Using the GP die roller, roll 7x4d6, for each roll throw out the single lowest value. From the seven totals left, throw out the lowest total and assign the six values in anyway that you'd like.

2. If after step one your rolls are pretty miserable, feel free to use the standard array of 15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8, and assign them anyway you'd like.

Together we should all determine why your character are traveling to Greenest.

I've sorted out the basic mechanics and the like for my character now I'd like to know how to work out our characters meeting? I'm not sure what class the others are playing. What are your thoughts?

Elven ranger here, and something bad is going to happen and I'm out to stop it.

Qralloq are you playing the same character from the last one? If you are we could have left there together and travelled to here. If that's OK with Szemely?

A bunch of interesting tales, excellent. Is their any objections to multiclassing?

I have no issue with that as long as the four of you are together by the time you're approaching Greenest.

Multi classing is fine as well.

Awesome I've tried this set up before and I'm keen to try a different method.

Yup. Figured she (we?) have left Falu and are headed to Baldur's Gate for reasons.

Something is pulling me on and one place is as good as another to look for Hedy whatisname

Heddy Laopole, an expert on comets and other strange stellar omens - I like that idea...

I think my next character will be a paladin. To be honest, that's my go to class, but I like 'em a little bit dirty. Thinking human, with the Acolyte background and the Magic Initiate feat that grants limited casting from another school (in this case, warlock). He's a former cultist on the run from poor life choices, and hoping the armor of faith will save him.

Sounds cool to me!

Submitted the pally. Raised in the Cult to Tiamat, there was AN INCIDENT and she had a change of heart. She now paladins for Bahamut. Let me know if those two deities are problematic for this scenario.

That'll work just fine!

I'm working on getting another player to join from my local group and will know in a day if that'll work out. If not I'll post an open invite later this week and we'll get moving again.

I'll be rolling a High Elf Wizard named Kettyr Janden.
OOC:
Holy smokes! Good rolls!
