Character Creation Quickstart Guide

Character Creation

Step 0:

This is optional at this point, but it really helps to gather the following materials:

writing utensils (both permanent and erasable) such as pens and pencils;

a set of polydice (d4, d6, d8, d10, d12, d20), multiple d6's if you have them;

a piece of paper or anything to note down your (temporary) rolls or draft any ideas that might develop on;

a blank Character Sheet, which you will need eventually anyway.

Step 1:

Select what race you'd like to play from the list of available Player Races:

if you have a desire to play as anything other than this, contact the GM and discuss your wishes with them;

once you have decided on a race, write down its racial features.

Step 2:

Roll the dice as outlined by your race to determine your ability scores and calculate your Ability Modifiers:

write these scores down in the order that you rolled them;

as a human, rearrange up to two results if you wish;

reroll your constitution score should your character come up dead on arrival;

if desired, spend one of your Fate Tokens to reroll any other ability.

Step 3:

Have your GM roll your profession (background), or choose your own if your GM allows it:

write down your starting equipment based on your profession roll;

calculate your armor class and your starting hit points;

by default, you will start out with a Morality score of 0;

as a human, pick a starting proficiency. As a non-human, write down your starting proficiency.

Step 4:

With the information you have gathered so far, you can fill in your Character Sheet!
