Character Creation

Rules

Follow the following steps when making a new character!

  1. Choose a playable race and make note of their traits.
  2. Roll 6x 4d6, keeping the highest 3 values and summing them up. Make this roll on Discord or Foundry - somewhere visible for the DM.
  3. Swap around scores as desired.
  4. Choose a class.
  5. Note the following Ability Score increase rules:
    • Ability Score Increases
      When determining your character’s ability scores, increase one score by 2 and increase a different score by 1, or increase three different scores by 1. Follow this rule regardless of the method you use to determine the scores, such as rolling or point buy. The “Quick Build” section for your character’s class offers suggestions on which scores to increase. You can follow those suggestions or ignore them, but you can’t raise any of your scores above 20.
  6. See these increases as prompts - why is your character good at this?

Life Span

The typical life span of a player character in the D&D multiverse is about a century, assuming the character doesn’t meet a violent end on an adventure. Members of some races, such as dwarves and elves, can live for centuries.

Height and Weight

Player characters, regardless of race, typically fall into the same ranges of height and weight that humans have in our world.
