Attempting to make a character for the first time, did I do attack/damage right?
This is a pretty run-of-the-mill fighter mountain dwarf named Urist McDwarf (props if you know what I'm referencing ). I rolled with dice at home BTW, 4d6 dropping the lowest. I'm specifically a little unsure if I did weapon attack and damage modifiers right. Could anyone verify these real quick?

Hey Breathless, you have done all of your combat information correctly. Good job!
Mr. McDwarf will be a real bruiser. If I have to meet him on the battlefield, I hope he's on my side.

I agree, your calculations look good, which is often the hardest part to pick up on. That's great, welcome to the game! I thought I'd add a few nit-pickier comments, so that you can really hit the ground running.
- It's not great to pre-roll stats, IMHO. Most GMs will want the standard array, and those who roll will want to see the rolls in a public thread. A stat of 18 at level 1 is pretty unusual. - your gold is high. You usually get a bunch of gold, OR standard starting equipment, but not both. - you shouldn't say your chain has an AC of 17. It should be 16, and then up at the top of the sheet, you can add your fighting style buff as an "other" bonus. - it's not true that you only have a 5% chance of being hit. Even the weakest monster adds a proficiency bonus to their attacks (+2 at the bottom of the scale). Many monsters considered cannon fodder like goblins or kobolds will also have positive stat mods, just like you. So you'll be fighting things with +3 to +5 to hit bonuses. So you'll be more in the range of a 25% likelihood of being hit. Still, 19 AC at level 1 is about as good as it gets - you will indeed be tough to hit. I hope that helps. It looks like you're more than ready to jump into a game.

That's right, gold from your background would effectively be your starting spending money. Until you start murdering monsters and taking their property, of course .
