Method Two: Roll 4d6. Discard the lowest-scoring die and total the remaining three. Do this for each of the six attributes. Once the six scores are generated, each score is assigned to an attribute of the player’s choice.

Maximum Hit Points

Maximum Starting gold to purchase equipment.

I will normally post daily - exception is Sundays (that's family day)

If you have any questions let me know. I dont' know if someone is making a character sheet or not, but you can post characters in your thread. You will have one in order to keep your own notes and stuff.

OOC:
You need a 15 and a 13 in your stat block. Either change one of your stats to 13 or roll the entire thing over

A Fighter, a Ranger and a Cleric are recommended.

You need a 15 and a 13 in your stat block.

Gesh: 14, 14, 14, 11, 10, 6 ... Still no 15 & 13 in stat block. Try again.

Woot: 15, 14, 12, 12, 10, 8 ... There you go. That works. Fairly average rolls.

Thinking a male Half-Orc Ranger.

I don't know how to add a character sheet, but I made one that seems to be very basic, but might work. Anyone know how I can do that?

Done it a long time ago and forgotten. Generally, I have found it takes considerable time to make a really sweet character sheet. I have started making the character now, but I really don't create a nice sheet till I have everything about the character done. That way I can make a character sheet that encompasses the whole character well. The first workings of the character are applied while I'm creating it now.

GM: If you have any suggestions on background/history for the character, I'm open to thoughts. I'm working on Zugor the male Half-Orc ranger and have a picture done.

I added a thread with the character sheet, all you have to do is copy the code.

Who is Zugor? I see now. I approved Zugor. Most impressive!

Zugor isn't complete yet, but the format of the character sheet is fairly much done. Going to take a time or three yet to complete. I have used a format similar to the one now & it looked fairly good when I did use it.

Still could use some placement idea for where Zugor's prior 25 years of life were and where he is now at the start of the game? I'm not at all familiar with the setting.

Same here, I could use a little bit of setting context if you can provide. The map is quite useful!

If it’s all the same to you and as much as I appreciate the character sheet, I think I’d prefer to leave my character information freeform. Is that alright?

Yepper @Apidae, I'm using my own creation for a character sheet. I have run into similar issues with no fine character sheet, so I developed my own style.

Just looked over the system for encumbrance. Me thinks unless we get a donkey or such that we will not be carrying much. That is to be not burdened.

For a while, I have turned on the library, so you take a looksie.

You enclose your character sheet template between the following tags:


[charsheet="C&C character sheet"]
[/charsheet]


You can then post it in the forum I linked earlier, so that it is shown in the first post of the thread.

Found out to move unburdened is a lot of time in math. System doesn't allow you to carry much of anything besides what you need and still move unburdened. Zugor has coin but carry anything bought tends to be more complicated.

Seems like you're carrying 10 EV and have a limit of 18.

Zugor is wearing Greek Ensemble (Breastplate, Normal Helm, Bronze Armor Leg Greaves & Arm Greaves), Heavy Boots, and a Girdle for his Bastard Sword & Throwing Hand Axe which all together is 12 EV of encumbrance. He has a Small Belt Pouch, Backpack, & 2 Large Sacks for another 6 EV of encumbrance. Together that 18 EV which is his maximum encumbrance and still be unburdened.

He has carry capacity of 2 EV for found loot which isn't very much considering 16 coins to 1 EV which is why a suggestion of a hauling mount would be sweet. A nice donkey with lots of large sacks on it. Zugor has 69 gold coins free on him.

He has 7 days of rations & waterskin for survival and a Hammock & Bedroll combo for camping out. When not in armor, he has a change of clothing with him.

He may be an ugly one to look at but he is fast moving & rather dangerous. Night time is his friend.

I have some cash leftover; I’m picking up a pony, bridle, and some saddlebags. However I couldn’t find rules for exactly how much a pony can carry so I’ll just assume it’s a pretty good amount for now.
