Tired of laboriously building 5E Player Characters? Roll once¸ read this book¸ and come up with the most interesting character you've played in years. The Fifth Edition of DUNGEONS & DRAGONS is one of the best editions of the game ever created. However¸ the sheer over-reliance on careful point-driven character "builds" over the last 16 years has removed one of the most entertaining and fundamentally Gygaxian aspects of the original game: rolling up random ability scores to create an unexpected character concept. The problem is easy to rectify: Roll 4D6 for each ability¸ and remove the lowest scores. But it takes a fair amount of time¸ and there's no real guidance for random role-playing ideas to support unexpected results. So this book includes 100 unique level 1 characters¸ ready to go. They have all been randomly generated using Kent David Kelly's proprietary level 1 CharGen utility - to be released soon by Wonderland Imprints - which draws on historical and pulp fantasy research to generate millions of great unique character names¸ from Jolza Grimarrow the Judicious¸ to Aelia Gratidia the Strengthless. Each character also has unique descriptors (from a list of over 1¸000) to turn numeric ability scores into role-playing hooks: Mighty¸ Disciplined¸ Forgetful¸ Clumsy¸ Barbaric¸ Perceptive¸ and so forth. This book and its companion volume¸ ORG1 ~ OLDSKULL ROGUES GALLERY 1¸ each feature separate cohorts of 100 unique characters. If you own both¸ you will have 200 characters to choose from! (Book 1 features many spell casters; this one features many warriors.) Characters in this supplement also have their starting hit points and starting gold calculated¸ along with recommended gender¸ alignment¸ optimal class (calculated from ability score thresholds)¸ and survivability rating. Just roll 1D100 once¸ and instantly generate 23 unique pieces of information to drive your next amazing character concept. I guarantee you will be pleased¸ surprised¸ and amused by the results! All profusely illustrated¸ and at a great price. From Wonderland Imprints - Only the Finest Works of Fantasy.
