404: Chargen
I own Xanathar's, Tasha's, PHB, DMG, and MM. Anything outside those tomes, I need links to online sources (nothing I have to sign in to see, because get off my lawn) that are legally free use.
Level
PBP games are slow (and tentative) enough that I hesitate to start D&D campaigns at L1 like I would at a table game, but I want to encourage the zero-to-hero vibe in this one, so We'll be starting at L3 then progressing through regular advancements, aiming to wrap things up somewhere between L7 - L9 (if everything goes well).
- It's dangerous to go alone, take these: Full HP for the first three levels. Average HP each level thereafter if we make it to advancements.
- Still kinda dangerous: Everyone starts with 1 free feat.
Attributes
Standard Array Attributes or the Customizing Variant (both PHB p13).
Race
Smallfolk is the theme for this game, so PCs may be Dwarves, Gnomes, Halflings, Goblins, Kobolds, Grippli, or dwarf/stunted versions of regular 'big' races (dwarf Dragonborn, etc).
I will gladly consider other options if anyone cares to present them.
- Note: Some language details might change by race. Notably, there is no Underdark in this setting and Outlander covers both Celestial and Infernal tongues. Common is referred to as Trade Tongue in the setting but functions the same otherwise.
Class
I would like to steer clear of Artificers as a character class, but otherwise I'm pretty open to most class options, including some UA options.
- 'Deities: Check out the setting page for ideas if you are playing a character who would have a deity.
Background
All listed Backgrounds are fine, and I'm pretty easy about substituting features to fit a concept. Custom backgrounds are also fine, pending approval. These should follow the basic format of published backgrounds.
