Character Creation Discussion

Sep 28, 2016 1:36 am
Second level. Anything in the PHB is allowed. If you roll for stats (4d6 drop lowest), do so in this forum for character creation. Equipment as per PHB +100 gp. No evil alignments.

This will be combat and action heavy, and I anticipate damage dealers and controllers to shine.

If you want to try rolling your stats (might as well try - characters with low stats will be given the stat array as an option), try it by:
- click the Red Advanced button below
- add a BASIC dice roll,
- in the "Reason" box type "Stats" or something as the description, and
- in the "Roll" box, type: 4d6,4d6,4d6,4d6,4d6,4d6
- leave Visibiliy as "Hide nothing"
Note: you'll have to drop the lowest yourself.

When you post, the roll will be added to the bottom of your post.

Let everyone know what type of character you're playing (race, class, background), so those adverse to duplication can avoid such.

To create a character sheet:
- click "Characters" at the top under the Gamersplane logo
- at the bottom, under New Character, fill out the Label (name, perhaps), choose D&D 5 as the system, and the type as PC.

Once you've created the character, partially or wholly, then you can submit it to the game, by:
- click "Games" at the top under the Gamersplane logo
- click the "Dangerous Prisoner" game
- at the bottom right, under "Submit a Character", select your char from the drop down list and click Submit
Note: the character can still be edited after you submit it.

No established setting.

Standard pantheon is fine.

Marian Town is a crossroads in a temperate wooded forested area, but it is on a very large river (almost a mile across). Population is several thousand

On the character sheet, mark Prepared spells with an asterisk at the beginning of the spell name

Any questions or requests, post away!

Characters done and submitted, pretty happy with how Holnir Mithrilbritches has turned out :) although I couldn't figure out what to spend most of his money on as his starting gear pretty much covers everything he needs.

ok quick update im going wood elf monk, with an urchin as background... i have this streetfighter character in mind, gew up poor learned to fight dirty with kidney shots, low kicks, just dirty fighting. once taking a fight with a monk, got his ass handed to him, and started training in the monestary

oh quick question how much does a healing potion cost in this game?? because well wat mcneils5 said, basic equipment covers a lot.. and well never can have enought heaing potions
Sep 28, 2016 12:43 pm
Healing Potions are in the PHB equipment section. I think they're 50gp each?

Just checked and they are (missed it when I looked the first time) so I'll add one of those to Holnir's gear

Never made a character before on this site, I'll try rolling and see what I get, otherwise I'll take a standard array like you said.

Would a cleric be useful? I'm thinking about trying to make a cleric that's not afraid to get in and do some damage as well.

4d6 : (6616) = 19

So dropping the lowest gets me 11, 13, 15, 17, 19. That's pretty good, right?

Awesome! I'll take a look at the PHB and put something together.

I messed up in understanding which thing we were dropping for lowest. Here are the numbers I think are correct based on what others are doing:

6, 10, 12, 12, 15, 18
