Character Creation

Be sure to read and follow the guidelines for our forums.

Apr 4, 2018 11:30 am
Please roll your characters here.
4d6 and drop the lowest.
If you don't like your rolls then you can use the standard points buy system instead.

Anything from the officially release material is fine.

Please no UA.


Good luck!

Player 1 - (4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6)

4d6 - ( 2, 2, 5, 3 ) = 12 --> 2,5,3 =10
4d6 - ( 6, 3, 4, 6 ) = 19 -->6,6,4=16

4d6 - ( 1, 2, 6, 5 ) = 14 -->2,5,6=13
4d6 - ( 3, 5, 1, 1 ) = 10 -->1,3,5=9

2 - (4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6)

4d6 - ( 1, 1, 3, 1 ) = 6 -->1,1,3=5

I think the best way is to find a group first and then roll your party together. That way you don't end up making a bunch of characters that you never end up using. However, there's nothing wrong with preparing a few characters in advance if you like :)

It's up to you really.
Apr 5, 2018 1:59 pm
I will be using standard point buy for my characters if that is OK

Standard point buy is fine.
Also, take 5,000 gold to equip your characters. You can buy magic items using the purchase rules on page 135 of the DMG. If you have any questions then let me know.

Rolling 2 sets. 1 for the 15th level, one for the 5th level.

Set 2 - (4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6, 4d6) 5th Level (14, 14, 13, 10, 6, 6) - I think this one I may do point-buy instead!

is that for all characters lvls or just the higher lvl game?
Apr 6, 2018 9:28 pm
5,000 gold is of the level 5 characters.

I think 23,000 gold is more appropriate for the level 15 characters.

For clarification on HP, I thought I saw it somewhere, but that could have been a different game.... are we rolling, taking the average, average plus something, always max?
Apr 8, 2018 4:37 am
You can choose to take the average plus 1 or to roll. However, if you roll you must accept your rolls even if they're terrible. Please roll in this thread :)
Apr 8, 2018 8:01 am
Just a quick heads up. If you're looking to purchase magic armour then you need to pay for a non-magical set and then pay the magic price.

For example, should you want Adamantine Full Plate, then you'd need to buy the Full Plate (1500 gold and then buy the Adamantine (uncommon magic = 300 gold), so that item would cost 1800 gold.
Apr 8, 2018 11:13 am
I had already rolled 51 with the dice tool and planned on using that, average +1 would be 52. Unfortunately I closed the window already so can't show you. Do you want me to roll again (I might just choose average+1 then) or will you give me the benefit of the doubt;-)?

Aetoris has expertise as well. If you wanna see how I deal with it on my sheet. For jack of all trades, I'd just leave a note since it's all non proficient skills
Apr 8, 2018 11:14 pm
Yeah, I checked out your sheet earlier, Drama, since your guy is a rogue. I was just hoping there might be another trick to handle it somehow. But your way works! That's how I'll put it on mine.

And nice to see you here Hypco!

Yeah, it would be really nice if there was additional boxes for jack of all trades and expertise in the same area as the general proficiency. or a drop down that let you pick [.5,1,2]x proficiency and it just defaults to 1. I may just make that suggestion....

@Arina I was using the mobile app Fifth Edition Character Sheet to create and level up the character last night, using the Average on the HP. Is that acceptable?
Apr 10, 2018 3:04 am
It should be the average dice roll +1 plus your con modifier. It is absolutely acceptable.
Apr 10, 2018 4:43 am
Great! I've submitted my character sheet. It has the stats, although I'm still working out the equipment list. I've never equipped a character at this high a level before, and I'm having a heck of a time figuring out what a level 15 rogue would have in the way of armor and weaponry and such. The 5e campaigns I've played have generally been very stingy with the magic items.
Apr 10, 2018 4:44 am
Also submitted a backstory. Amazing how much easier that is than building the stats, lol.

Yup. That's the risk you take for rolling hps.

Now I'm going shopping... :)

....just realized that I CANT go shopping because I don't have DMG to look stuff up..... Makes shopping kind of hard......

Without the dmg, try this site Magic Items...
Apr 29, 2018 11:51 pm
With that site I can see a list of magic items but not the prices for each item. It's a step in the right direction tho

Description for uncommon "Sword of Vengeance" anyone? Also Arina, with my Domain ability that allows me to bless a weapon or armor and make it a +1 per long rest, if I chose to bless my darts would I be able to bless a handful? Or would it be just 1 dart? Depending on the Swords definition, I was planning on blessing my darts, but I just thought of that little problem with the wording in Xanathars book.

@Silver Hawk: I'll give you 1d6 per bless. Sound fair?
May 1, 2018 8:03 am
Thanks Hypco! It prob isn't something my char would jyve with. And thx Arina. That way I can grab a +1 sword and still get some use out of my ability. I spent about 44-4500 of my allotted 5000 Gp on other items.

How do I do that spoiler drop down thing that Hypco did above? I've seen it used for ability/spell details and for stuff like the sword description but I don't know how to do it myself.
May 3, 2018 11:07 am
Correct location rolls!

Painfully average; going point buy.

OOC:
oh and try and get your first post in asap. Don't wait for me to approve your character. Just go for it.
May 3, 2018 11:29 am
Okay, I have my character pretty much thought out so I could, in theory, post right now. However, I just read your recent post, it seems quite difficult to get into an area that requires an escort. Thoughts?
May 3, 2018 11:34 am
Yeah. You are quietly bringing up the rear. You are a member of the team just like everyone else. You just haven't opened your mouth yet.

If you have a name and a picture in mind for your character, I can quickly approve one for you.
May 3, 2018 12:34 pm
You're joining the lvl 5 game Hypco? Nice!
May 3, 2018 12:40 pm
I figured as such, that was my first thought and I was trying to avoid because I don't see this guy keeping his mouth shut for that long. But I guess I'll bite the bullet for being a late joiner.

I have both the name and picture; I'll submit now, inject him into the story, and fill in the details behind the curtains.

Submitted; ignore the initial page name (it's how I label them prior to them having a character name), this is just the quick and dirty. I'll update as I go and all the pieces will fall into place.

No worries. You're approved.

Rolling stats for my pirate (not 100% sure of race/class yet but possibly half elf rogue)

Rolls

stats - (4d6)

stats - (4d6)

(5211) = 9

So, that would be:
13
8
12
14
12
11

Kind of underwhelming, I might use point buy instead.
May 20, 2018 1:21 pm
Go for it.
May 20, 2018 5:59 pm
Can I use the rolls I made before for a level 15 character that never materialized? I'm looking at an Elven wizard, looking towards a Bladesinger when and if I reach level 2.
May 20, 2018 10:18 pm
Also, for a level 1 character, do we just take the standard equipment from the PHB? I saw something about 5000 gold but I assume that's for higher levels.
May 20, 2018 10:32 pm
5,000 was for the 5th level game.
23,000 was for the 15th level game.

I'm guessing, if y'all are starting at 1st level, it is the standard start; background/class or roll for wealth.
May 20, 2018 10:58 pm
You got it Hypco. Just standard for the level 1 game :)
May 20, 2018 11:23 pm
@Coachthor: go for it.

Arina, can I make my elf rogue (for the pirate game) be the gender fluid kind? It's a new thing in Mordekainen's Tome of Foes, they can change gender once per day. I plan to get the book as soon as it comes out (this week, I think) so I can find out what the exact rules are of that. Sounds interesting though.
May 24, 2018 10:10 pm
I can send you those rules, if you would like. I have a pre-ordered copy. Let me see if I can find those rules.
May 25, 2018 1:08 am
If either of you could send me the rules just so I know how it works then that would be great
My usual rule is that anything from officially published material is fine although I tend to shy away from most monster PC races.

It certainly sounds interesting!
May 25, 2018 10:19 am
Chief12justice could you send the rules to both of us, or just copy them here! Thanks!
May 25, 2018 12:00 pm
So, I am not seeing anything regarding fluid gender rules for elves. I have found that eladrin (a new subrace of elf) have seasons as a key part of their makeup, and they can change seasons after a long rest, which affects their personality as well as their fey step ability. You could probably couple the gender change with the season change, if you wanted.

I will keep looking to see if there are gender fluidity mechanics in place, but as of now, I could not find anything about it.
May 25, 2018 6:48 pm
Found it! Page 44:

THE BLESSED OF CORELLON
Ever changing, mirthful, and beautiful, the primal elves could assume whatever sex they liked. When they bowed to Lolth's influence and chose to fix their physical forms, elves lost the ability to transform in this way. Yet occasionally elves are born who are so androgynous that they are proclaimed to be among the blessed of Corellon - living symbols of the god's love and of the primal elves' original fluid state of being. Many of Corellon's chief priests bear this blessing.
The rarest of these blessed elves can change their sex whenever they finish a long rest - a miracle celebrated by elves of all sorts except drow. (The DM decides whether an elf can manifest this miracle.) Dark elves find this ability to be terrifying and characterize it as a curse, for it could destabilize their entire society. lf Corellon's blessing manifests in a drow, that elf usually flees to the surface world to seek shelter among those dedicated to Corellon.

Cool. Works for me. Is that the only ability granted to that subrace of elves?
May 25, 2018 11:17 pm
That’s not even related to the eladrin. It’s just an elf variant that can be applied to any elf.
May 26, 2018 3:28 am
Ok good to know, I changed my elf type to drow, because that's a more interesting combination with this ability.
May 26, 2018 3:34 am
I see. So it's just an extra ability. Ok so Pjakobs, it's up to you how you want to incorporate this into your character. Just make sure to describe the difference in appearance (if any) or voice (again, if any).
May 27, 2018 12:10 am
I goofed and rolled in the wrong thread again; the dice hate me like always though, so I'm taking point buy regardless.

Very nice rolls! You can either take the average plus 1 or roll dice for your hps. However, if you roll, you have to accept the outcome no matter what!
