Let's see what my rolls are, then I will pick a character after looking through the current PCs.

Rolls

Stat 1 - (4d6)

(5624) = 17

Stat 2 - (4d6)

(5423) = 14

Stat 3 - (4d6)

(1112) = 5

Stat 4 - (4d6)

(3465) = 18

Stat 5 - (4d6)

(6624) = 18

Stat 6 - (4d6)

(2216) = 11

After dropping the lowest, we end up with:
15, 12, 4, 15, 16, 10

Wow, that was bad...
I think a character with a 4 in Con is basically on their deathbed.
Point buy is looking good

You don't need to keep your stats in the same order. Still, I'm not sure I would want a character with a stat of 4 in anything lol.

No problem. Don't forget to level your characters to level 3 too.

Welcome, @Brokenfocus and @rpgventurer!

Nov 15, 2018 6:36 am

Thank you. I heard you had trouble with kobolds so I rushed right over. :-)

@Broken and RPG, once you have created your characters jump into the game forum. I have made a new thread for you there. Also, don't forget to manually subscribe to the game forum, so you get email notifications.

Will do. Some questions:
1. What pantheon of gods are we using?
2. What is the main terrain feature of the north (e.g., forest, mountains, tundra)
3. Are there villages or towns nearby other than the one the characters stayed at?

1. Whatever pantheon you like. I have only fleshed out the major religion which is worship of Pelor the god of light. So you can use other Greyhawk deities if you like but please feel free to make up your own god or goddess if you like. I am all about collaborative world building.
2. Forest, with scattered frontier farms.
3. Northwatch is the northernmost city. Berda Trading post is more of a Company operation rather than a village per se.

I really should add an extra thread for important information like this.

Anyway, jump into your thread and it should tell you most of the important information. Also, it's not exactly an in character thread, so we can workshop from there.

Just use the points buy method from the PHB. I think almost all of the team are using the point buy method, so you won't be underpowered :)

@Gene. Actually, I have another character who is about to join the game. Perhaps you can come up with some kind of backstory together? Will send a PM and get back to you ASAP.

Jan 8, 2019 8:29 am

I have the adjustments you wanted done. Main background of Duke is the fact spent most of his life working as an apprentice in the carpentry guild and became a master there. He isn't much of a temple priest, but a devout priest so he doesn't have a lot of to do with the local temple.

Great job Gene. Why don't you come and join Vorn and I in the thread titled Nivernia's Thread and we'll work on your unique magic item and backstory.

Dukes Character is fully cleaned up now. Do some work on getting a fuller background done soon.
