Character Creation
Please create a level 11 character using Point buy or Standard array for skills and Max HP for level 1. You will then get the average for the remaining levels. Starting equipment + 2 uncommon magical items + 200gp for any regular player’s handbook gear + any regular armor except for the plate (you can use a magical item slot for Adamantine or Mithral armor if you want a plate armor) + enough materials for 1 cast of each spell (unlimited for materials under 25gp).
The initial equipment you receive cannot be sold. Players are not allowed to transfer any magical items to one another (except in the case of consumable items) and they cannot pool the starting gold.
Flying races are not allowed due to the inherent unfair advantage they bestow. Races with a natural base flying speed are strictly prohibited; however, characters possessing abilities enabling temporary flight are acceptable.
Everything from Wizards of the Coast is allowed for character creation. You will have access to our compendium to create your character.
Special Rules
In this adventure, unique rules apply:
- Roleplay Emphasis: While roleplay is encouraged and welcome, it won’t yield points on its own. Be mindful that the focus is on other aspects of the game.
- Active Engagement: Passive perception will not be in use. You must actively search and investigate to uncover important clues or items. Quick decision-making is crucial, but rushing without caution could lead to dire consequences.
- Respawn Mechanism: A respawn mechanism is in place if your character meets an untimely demise. However, it’s important to note that this will deduct a substantial amount of points from your overall score.
