Character Creation
Character Creation
1. Starting level is 3.
2. Multiclassing is allowed from the start.
3. For ability scores, we're using the standard array: 15, 14, 13, 12, 10, 8
4. All PHB races, and all classes except for monks are allowed. You're also Undead, which means you have no need for food, drink, sleep, or oxygen. You still get all of the benefits of whatever race you were before you died.
5. Hit Points will be maxed for levels 1 & 2. From there you roll and take either the roll or the average for your hit die, whichever is higher. At first level you will add your Constitution Score to your HP, rather than your Constitution modifier. So if you have Con 14 (+2), rather than adding the +2 to your starting hit die, you add 14 instead. This is a representation of your extra fortitude for being undead. All levels after first will use modifier as usual.
6. You start with the weapons and armor given by your class and background, and nothing else, not even gold. You can choose either one weapon or one piece of armor that you start with to be enchanted by your master to be a +1 Weapon or +1 Armor.
7. Alignments must be some form of Neutral. All five variations of it, including Neutral Good. Your alignment is there to give you direction in how you're going to carry out the master's plans. The Arch-Necromancer himself is True Neutral.
8. Everyone starts with 1 Feat. This feat should improve the flavor and variety of your character, representing the knowledge and experience of your past life. Make it something interesting.
9. Tracking Ammo sucks, so you have an infinite supply of normal ammo for any ranged weapon you use. Magical ammo will be tracked as normal, when/if you obtain such. Not applicable to thrown weapons.
Allowed Sources
Pretty much all of the official Wizards material is "allowed" as long as I have the book, and unless it's brand new you can safely assume I have it.
THIS GAME IS NOT FIRST-COME, FIRST-PLAY. All applications will be considered.
Important Note:
Remember that we're here to have fun and tell a story together. If your character is optimized to the teeth such that you're the only one who needs to take actions in order to win, you're probably ruining the experience for everyone else. Everyone should have a chance to shine.
RNG gods bless/curse whomever they will, I'm not talking about RNG, I'm talking excessive min/maxing. I'd much rather have a group full of Half-Orc Wizards with 11 Intelligence that just have fun with the game, than a group of min/max Variant Human Paladin/Sorcerers that could individually wreck every encounter solo. You feel me?
