What you will need – A pencil and a character sheet (no dice needed, and don’t use pens)

unless you are using a


digital character sheet.

Start – From this point on, you will be noting your character on your character sheet.

 Pick the following from each Realm page.


o Race
o Class
o Background from your Realm or on the Background’s sheet.
 Note all Features, Proficiencies, Languages, and Gear you get from each onto your
character sheet.
 Determine Alignment
o Lawful Good, Lawful Neutral, Lawful Evil
o Neutral Good, True Neutral, Neutral Evil
o Chaotic Good, Chaotic Neutral
 No Chaotic Evil allowed.
 Determine your six Primary Attributes using the Point System starting with 30 points.
o Each attribute starts at 10, then distribute 30 points between your six Primary Attributes.
o Apply Racial bonuses – You get 3 racial bonus points to distribute on your six Primary Attributes.
You may put 2 points into one attribute and 1 into another or you may put 1 point in 3 different
attributes. No stat may be higher than 20, and you can only have one 20, one 19, and one 18 at
character creation.
 Determine your character’s Bond, Flaws, Ideas, and Personality Traits listed below.
 Determine your Passive Perception which is 10 + your Wisdom Attribute Bonus
 Everyone starts at level 2!
o Determine your Hit Dice based on your Class
o For Hit Points, you will start at your max HP for level 1, and half for level 2.
o Add your Constitution Bonus to your HP for each level you have.

Bonus (determined by level, LVL 2 gets +2), Save Proficiencies (Attribute bonus + Proficiency
bonus).
o For Spell Casters – Spellcasting Ability (8 + Proficiency bonus + Attribute bonus, Spell Save DC (8 +
Proficiency bonus + Attribute bonus), and Spell Attack Bonus (Proficiency bonus + Attribute

 Additionally, you will need to determine how many spells you know from each level,
how many spells you can prepare per day, and how many spells you can cast per day.
o Determine your height, weight, age, gender, and any other physical descriptions.
 Come up with a basic/generic story for your character centered around your Realm, Race, Class, and
Background.
