Character Creation

2024 Characters

Sources: The following Source Books may be used to create a character.

• Any Core non-Legacy Content
• Eberron Content (Species Only)
• Humblewood Content (Species Only)
• Spelljammer Content (Species Only)

Other material may be available based on the specfic campaign or with DM approval.

Ability Scores: Group scores to be rolled at session zero. Using the following method

1. Each player Rolls 3d6 and adds the number together
2. The DM will roll 3d6 and add the results together, The DM will then repeat this process until a total of 8 stats have been rolled.
3. The highest and lowest values are set aside, leaving a group of 6 and a group of 2.

Each player may now pick one of the following options for their stats.

• Assign the group of 6 stats however they wish
• Create a group of 6 stats that consists of the group of 2 and 4 other number of their choice from the group of 6
• Use the Standard Array
• Use the point-buy system

Regardless of the set of stats used, Background modifiers may not be used to increase an ability score above 20. Addtionally, you never gain bonuses to your stats as a result of species selection.

Starting Wealth and Magic Items: As per the normal rules plus whatever is shown on the following table (Table does not include starting wealth/gear) if starting higher than 1st le.

Free Cantrip: Casters that have access to Prestidigitation, Druidcraft, or Thaumaturgy, through their class, can memorize the cantrip without it counting against the number of cantrips they can know. If a character has access to more than one of these they still only get 1 for free. The others may still be known but they count against the total number of cantrips known as normal.

Backgrounds: As per normal Character Creation Rules.

• Select a Background Chariteristics option that is most simliar to what you envision for your character (But you are not limited to choices from this option)
