Character Creation and dice rolling thread

[Drachenspirit]

Oh. So I'll do a reroll of the whole ability, not just one die. Cool.

Dice Roll:

4d6

5, 3, 3, 5

Total = 16

13 doesn't really change anything, but I'll take it.

If the latter, I've a dilemna below...
The kit I chose gives my character the following "Additional" spells to what she normally gets for the priest class. Can use the following once per day in addition to allotment:
- Command spell (once at first level, and gain additional at 5th level so that's twice)
- Hold Portal as per the wizard spell
- Compel
- Detect Lie
- Dispel Evil or Flamestrike (player's choice)

So, do I go by the kit and add this to the allotment you've stated above, or do I have to add them in to the allotment?

Also, I'm kinda stuck on moving forward with the sheet until we know magical items and such.
I know what weapons and armor she'll probably have, but that's about it. I've ran several Games at this level created or advanced characters quite a bit in the past to play at this level. I've seen DMs give out stuff, let players submit a wish list, or give an allotment of 10,000 XP to as high as 20,000 XP to use to purchase magic items - with the DM (myself on some of these occasions) having the final say.
As for monies, I've mostly gone with having players roll for first level and multiply that by current level of character and use that to purchase mundane items, or just say you have 10 grand or whatever (minus tithing for you paladins and priests, and thieves belonging to guilds!!).
Now, I'm not trying to powergame, just kinda on hold with all the final touches - armor, weapons, magical bracer-ring-belt-boot-cloak, or what have you. Not gonna spend a fortune on armor if sometime in the past she got Armor of blending for example.
All that said, I'm gonna work on Proficiencies now... :-)

Being away from home it is hard for me to get all the answers right now. I will try to get you some answers tommorow.

No rush hypno. I feel ya. Just got back from one get together and got two more to hit within next week.
One's a two hour drive the other a 5 hour drive. Merry Christmas!

[Narrten44]

Practically done, just working on languages, spells, and items.

[Clawsome]

Merry Christmas as well as Happy and Safe Holidays to all.

[hypno44]

Merry Christmas I will see you all after the holiday.

[hypno44]

How would you guys like to handle starting magic weapons? 10,000 XP worth seem ok?

[Drachenspirit]

That works for me! How much to spend on mundane items?

[hypno44]

Well I'd say mundane items should not really have a limit. This a group that has been adventuring for years and has decent wealth. Please dont go overboard on me.

[Drachenspirit]

So... no fleet of ships... got it.

[Narrten44]

But are carts and pack animals ok?

[Drachenspirit]

Oh. And what's the ruling on henchmen? How many? Level restriction? Trying to finish up sheet by Monday, Tuesday at the latest.

[hypno44]

Carts and pack animals are fine. You may have up to as many as the max allows for henchmen based on your class and charisma scores.

[Drachenspirit]

One more question. As my character's charismas score is 8, her kit says her henchmen treat her as if it is 18. This is only after she acquires henchmen. So, though they will be extremely loyal, I only get 3. Now, the question: I know henchmen will be lower level, but how do you want us to determine this? Also, what will their limits on magical items be, if they'll have any at all? Cuz, if one of them is say 10th level, then they would have acquired magical items along the way to 10th level.
Ok, so that's two questions...

)Crap... I had added a lot to character sheet and lost my wifi connection and none of it saved. GRRRRRRRR!!!!!!
