What you'll need to do is fill out a pdf character sheet. I have a blank one in this Google Drive folder. It'll be under Character Sheets > Blank. You'll need to download it and edit in Adobe Reader. In addition to character sheets, this folder will be used as a means of sharing homebrew content. I already have some sources at the ready.
Follow the steps below to fill the Character Sheet out. Once the sheet is filled out, simply upload it to the aforementioned Character Sheets folder. When you've done all of that, comment here to let me know. I'll then let you know if something needs changed or if it's okay. Once you've got the okay, I'll tag you in the main thread under the Player Characters section.
How to fill it out:
1. Race- I am using a bunch of races outside of the PHB for this. The sources for all these races can all be found within the Google Drive folder. Here is a list, sorted by source, for your convenience. Certain races appear in multiple sources, most with basically the same stats, but please only use the stats from the source listed. Though each nation has a dominant race, your character does not have to be that dominant race in order to be from that nation. I will not be accepting core races outside of those listed here, however, I am all for extra subraces and race variants so long as you provide sources for them in the Drive folder.
One thing I'm not allowing is anything that adds new religious domains. I'm sticking with the original 8: Death, Knowledge, Life, Light, Nature Tempest, Trickery, War. You may use any of those domains.
If your class is religious, check the Religion section of my Lore page for this campaign. You are limited to choosing a World Deity, Regional Deity corresponding with your homeland, or Racial Deity corresponding with your race. Half-Elves and Half-Orcs use the High/Wood Elf and Orc deities, respectively, as their racial deities. Genasi are beings from the elemental planes, thus, have no racial deities. If you wish to play a religious Genasi, your Genasi must be from the Material Plane, not the Elemental Plane. Genasi can choose from World Deities and Regional deities like any race, but they may also choose from any racial deity, depending on the races they grew up around. Fallen Aasimar cannot choose the Aasimar racial deity.
Lastly, we will be starting at level 4. Be sure you know all of my homebrew mechanics for leveling up and feat usage. These are listed on the main campaign page.
3. Ability Scores- We will be rolling for our stats using the Dice Room mentioned on the main campaign page. To roll 6 stats at once, simply type in "#repeat 6 4d6h3 #Ability Scores" You may assign the stats however you wish. If you get 3 or more stats that are 12 or less, you may reroll all 6.
4. Describe your character- I'm allowing evil alignments, but keep the rules mentioned on the main campaign page in mind. I'll also need good reasonings for this. As for Backgrounds, they follow the same rules as Classes. You may choose your ideals, flaws, and bonds on your own, or roll for them. If you roll, you may simply roll your own private dice. Create your backstory and supply an image for your character, if possible. If you cannot find one, give a good description of your character's physical appearance. Supplying an image and saying things like "but with black hair" will also work, if you can't find the exact image you want. If you are unsure of how to add images to a pdf, simply upload the image to the drive folder alongside your character sheet. If you cannot fit your backstory within the confines of the character sheet, feel free to instead make a googledoc in the character sheets folder titled with your character name. I encourage you to take what Lore exists for the world and try to come up with something creative for your character. Make up some faction or tribe that I can add to the world if you want to. I want the world to bend around your character, not make your character conform to the world. You should also read the starting post for the campaign and think of reasons your character would just happen to be there. Think of some personal goal for your character. Perhaps, if you do make a new faction/organization, this goal can be intertwined with that, sort of like on Critical Role how Keyleth has the personal goal of completing her Aremente, which is tied to the Ashari tribe she is a part of. Let your imagination go crazy.
5. Equipment- Use the max gp for your class +75gp. If you are using a homebrew class that does not have an equipment section or doesn't detail starting gold, use the starting gold for a similar class in the PHB. Be sure the weight of your equipment does not exceed your Strength score times 15. Roll in the dice room for a trinket. Just do "#1d100" and then look at the trinket table. Work this trinket into their backstory.
