[OOC] D&D 5e Rime of the Frostmaiden.

[Lurking Krog]

Awesome, now we wait.

Hi! If you're looking for more, would you be willing to take someone new to DnD? My experience with 5e is limited to like... Baldur's Gate 3 and Critical Role, never actually played myself, but I'd be interested to give it a go in play by post form. If you're alright working with someone learning.

@Alarielle

We have a dice roller here on the site, in the right corner of homepage.
4d6 , scratch off the lowest die number, and that will be your total.

@Alarielle

I am willing to take on new learners. While I do enjoy the game I have not played much and have only DMed for a few games aside from for my kids.

As Heavy stated for rolling you attributes roll 4d6 and drop the lowest. You cam reroll 1s as well. It cann be on the this website , dndbeyond, with your own die, or with any other RNG.

If you have any questions just ask on here or dm me.

@HEAVY METAL
The town is Good Mead, tavern is just the mead hall. Very small town here though.

My bad, i will fix, dang herbs.

[Lurking Krog]

All good.

@Alarielle
Dndbeyond is a good site to use for making characters and does have a lot of free basic stuff. Saddly most of the subclasses and extra bits are lock behind purchases, either by whole books, chucks like by feats surfaces etc, or individually.

If you already have the books by what ever means you use, mythweavers is good for just the sheet.

[Alarielle]

Using mythweavers, since I've got a pair of examples to use here already. Trying to make a warlock.

@HEAVY METAL

Tell me about it. I had a buddy give me pdf versions for all of 3.5e. And I mean all of them. I've been pretty diligent so far in keeping them all.

[Metal Head]

@Lurking Krog
I never did get into 3rd or 3.5 , i really cant remember why we skipped it, there was something ,i dunno odd about it.

I do regret playing 4th edition, that was an eyesore lol

[Alarielle]

Rolled my abilities here, re-rolled 1s once, got

16
13
12
11
10
9

[Alarielle]

Are we rolling for hit points for level 2 or should I take 5?

[Lurking Krog]

You should have, least from what I'm seeing in your rolls:

17

14

11

11

10

13

If the rerolled 1s were higher than others take that instead.

You can roll for HP or take the median.

[Alarielle]

I checked again and I got, 16, 14, 11, 11, 9, 13. 90% sure I did it right that time.

[Lurking Krog]

I just rechecked it as well. I was wrong when I said 17 and your new numbers are correct.

[Metal Head]

@Lurking Krog

Do you have a map of the area? Just wondering if there are any rivers nearby this town that flow in from other neighboring rivers?

[Lurking Krog]

I haven't found one yet, haven't looked really hard though, that I can use. I ha e the physical book which does have the maps just need to find them online so I can use them here.

[Alarielle]

Okay, I think that's the gameplay stuff sorted out. Let me know if anything looks glaringly wrong, but it's fine if she's not optimized and whatnot, she doesn't know what she's doing anymore than I do haha.

I don't know DnD lore super well to make a proper backstory for her but I have some general ideas. Could always iron those out later I guess? Seems like we're jumping right in, anyway.
