Editing Character:William Sommerset McAllister

[[Category:Character|William Sommerset McAllister]]

A character for ''D&D 3.5'', created by Thanatos02. <br>

All of my characters follow the same basic rules, as noted here, though I don't expect anybody else to follow them. All of the characters are starting characters as outlined in the books. In generic books where a setting is assumed, I build a character that would fit in the setting. Where no setting is assumed, I build towards the contemporary era as the setting allows. In games that have no set point values or start character generation rules, I'll list specific guidelines built towards my assumptions of a 'beginning' or starting character.

My rules regarding fat-splats or series of games that utilize the same core mechanics is that when rules create suitably diverging types of characters, I'll construct one per setting I own. (For example, using Exalted, Dragon-Blooded and Solars are sufficiently different. In OMage, Order of Hermes and a Hollow One are not sufficiently different. In games with classes, different classes are not enough. They must essentially be different characters. Other people's opinions on what are different 'enough' really arn't my area of expertise. I build in good faith.) 

In any event, should the character posted not be according to the assumed structure of the Challenge Wiki, it '''will''' be alter shortly, and was probably the result of a time crunch. Thanks! I hope you have as much fun with this as I did. ^_^

== Campaign ==
My assumptions for this game is that generic splatbooks are allowed (if not actively encouraged) and thus I chose a character type I've been dying to make for quite a while: a Scout from '''Complete Adventurer'''. Since it's listed here, I won't note it below, however this ''is'' the only non-Core material I used at 1st level.

Even though it's not practiced at my own table, I'm keeping straight tabs on weight as per the rules.

== Commentary ==

Rolled for stats, even though I don't usually like to do so, that's the official way of going about it. 4d6, drop the lowest, and place where you want 'em. Still, I did really well, don't you think?

Rolled Gold, too, and got dead-average 100 GP. Double that would have been better, but I'll take what I can get. At least my level 1 character can afford weapons and armor! He's outfitted with your standard Adventurer's or Explorer's gear.
