2025 Character Creation Challenge Day 3
You can read more about the challenge here.
Here is the first of five human heroes!
Rolling everything by hand took longer than expected since information is all over the three books, and I wanted to double check weights, movement speeds, so on and so forth. Instead of rolling new characters tomorrow, I will build a spreadsheet with all the equipment and associated costs and weights. That will save me a lot of time in the long run.
Enough about what is coming; time to meet our first Hero.
