Campaign Setting and Character Creation
Welcome!
You are cordially invited to play in a Pathfinder campaign designed for 3-5 level 1 characters. Pathfinder is the spiritual successor to version 3.5 of Dungeons and Dragons, fixing many glaring balance issues. Version 4.0 of Dungeons and Dragons caused a significant divide in the community, and your DM has a hard-on for 3.5 and 'Pathfinder'.
The game will be set in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting, home of such games including Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale. The time is set after the Time of Troubles, and after the events that followed in the wake of the bhaalspawn. The game will also eventually touch upon the Planescape campaign setting, home of the game Planescape: Torment.
Character Creation
While we will be creating characters together on the first day of play, here's what you need to know if you want a head start:
- Character level: 1
- Races allowed: Any from Pathfinder and other third-edition D&D products.
- Classes allowed: Any from Pathfinder and other third-edition D&D products.
- Starting equipment value: ????g
- Stat allocation method:
It's probably a good idea to familiarize yourself with the Forgotten Realms setting in order to find a place for your character in the game's world, and perhaps determine other things, including religious affiliation.
