CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (6 of 6) - BX Character Creation Summary Step 1: Time once again to roll 3d6 in order. STR: 11 - OK. INT: 8 - Not super bright, but not terrible. WIS: 14 - Nice, above average. DEX: 15 - Very nice. CON: 17 - EXCELLENT. CHA: 12 - Decent. Step 2: Ok, so, our party so far lacks a Fighter, and a Thief. We do have characters who can fulfill both those roles to some extent, with the Fighter role handily covered by Hammara, Greenbriar and Brandic backed up by Mary the Mace. Brandic’s hiding skills are superior to any 1st Level Thief, but no other party member has any of the other abilities of a Thief. So I suppose that’s what we need. As a Thief, this new PC will have the following abilities: Backstab, +4 to hit, double damage. Thief Skills. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/e81d20a0-fed5-48f9-a63d-8ad2ccbbfa59/Robin.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (6 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.retroarcana.com/blog/character-creation-challenge-2023-1-j4mhh-69r5k-xj68p monthly 0.5 2023-01-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/9dbe1004-3798-4bf4-af40-c94cde0f79aa/CharGen+Summary.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (5 of 6) - BX Character Creation Summary Step 1: 3d6 powers - ACTIVATE. STR: 13 +1 bonus. INT: 13 - +1 bonus. WIS: 12 - High average. DEX: 12 - High average. CON: 14 - Healthy! +1 to HP rolls. CHA: 5 - What is it with this party? Either they’re very charismatic, or totally unlikeable. Step 2: SHAPE OF - DWARF! With a good STR and CON, this character would be an excellent Fighter or Dwarf, but given the Dwarven stereotype of gruff warrior we get from period literature, we’ll take that CHA 5 to mean this is that sort of warrior. More Dwalin than Fili and Kili. Today, we love to play against stereotype. Sometimes it’s because the stereotypes are old and worn out by this point. Many times it’s because we realize in 2023 that the individual is what we’re playing, and an individual can be anyone we want them to be unencumbered by any idea that an entire species has a single personality. I’m leaning toward “Crusty Dwarf” because I’m rolling these characters with an attempt to do so through the eyes of 11 year old me playing D&D for the first time in the mid 80s. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/505ed26f-9ee7-4ac6-9a79-40da94d46094/Hammara.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (5 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/770b331e-aea6-4d82-86e0-da0adb7205da/BX+Cover.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (5 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.retroarcana.com/blog/character-creation-challenge-2023-1-j4mhh-69r5k monthly 0.5 2023-01-04 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/fb6017d9-89e6-4102-a0ba-0f0c2d90106a/Brandic.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (4 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/770b331e-aea6-4d82-86e0-da0adb7205da/BX+Cover.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (4 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/9dbe1004-3798-4bf4-af40-c94cde0f79aa/CharGen+Summary.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (4 of 6) - BX Character Creation Summary Step 1: Time to roll ability scores: STR: 11 - average. INT: 10 - also average. WIS: 10 - you guessed it. DEX: 13 - hey, +1 bonus! CON: 12 - high end of average, but no bonus. CHA: 13 - another bonus. Step 2: So, our current character has a slightly higher than average DEX and CHA, but is otherwise average. This character actually qualifies to be any of the seven basic classes, so it’s very well-rounded. No penalties, which is in itself a fairly lucky series of die rolls. We already have a Magic-user and Elf, and a Cleric. With a high DEX, we could make a Halfling or Thief. I’ll leave it up to the dice - Halfling. https://www.retroarcana.com/blog/character-creation-challenge-2023-1-j4mhh monthly 0.5 2023-01-03 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/e01d2958-7c0e-457e-94e0-b5a927e23a29/Greenbriar.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (3 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/9dbe1004-3798-4bf4-af40-c94cde0f79aa/CharGen+Summary.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (3 of 6) - BX Character Creation Summary Step 1: Roll ability scores. Here’s what we got: STR: 12. Decent. INT: 14. Good, we’ll get a bonus. WIS: 10. Average. DEX: 11. Average. CON: 12. I sense a pattern forming. CHA: 4. Oh, no. Step 2: OK, whoever this character is, they are pretty unlikeable. Noticeably so. Otherwise, they are average across the board, save a high Intelligence. We’re going to go Elf. The decent STR coupled with good INT and at least passable DEX and CON mean the character will be a fair combination of fighty and casty. As an Elf, the PC will have a single Magic-User spell in their starting spellbook. 11- Sleep! Score. Sleep is one of the best first-level spells for combat efficacy. Plus, if you lack a certain moral fiber, casting Sleep on the staff at a shop acts as something of a fantasy medieval credit card. Not that I’ve ever done that. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/770b331e-aea6-4d82-86e0-da0adb7205da/BX+Cover.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (3 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.retroarcana.com/blog/character-creation-challenge-2023-1 monthly 0.5 2023-01-02 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/9dbe1004-3798-4bf4-af40-c94cde0f79aa/CharGen+Summary.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (2 of 6) - BX D&D Character Creation Summary Step 1: Roll ability scores. Here’s what we got: STR: 6. Ooof. INT: 14 WIS: 11 DEX: 14 CON: 15 CHA: 15 Step 2: Welp, low STR, high INT? CON is good, so is Charisma. We could go Magic-User or Thief, since Dex is also good. I think I’ll go Magic-User. We roll for our starting spell - 9. Read Magic. Step 3: We’re going to leave the ability scores alone - the high DEX, CON and CHA can’t be adjusted, STR is already below 9. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/770b331e-aea6-4d82-86e0-da0adb7205da/BX+Cover.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (2 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/0268bae3-5492-48e5-8871-19fa64de64cc/Mildred.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (2 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://www.retroarcana.com/blog/character-creation-challenge-2023-bx-dampd monthly 0.5 2023-01-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/2c902fc4-0960-4fb8-b410-a0d0dba40df0/Mary+the+Mace.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (1 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/770b331e-aea6-4d82-86e0-da0adb7205da/BX+Cover.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (1 of 6) - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/9dbe1004-3798-4bf4-af40-c94cde0f79aa/CharGen+Summary.JPG BLOG - CHARACTER CREATION CHALLENGE 2023: B/X D&D (1 of 6) - BX D&D Creation Summary Well, it’s pretty simple. As you can see here from the rulebook itself, there are seven steps, none of which are terribly complicated. By the book, ability scores are generated by rolling 3d6 in order. We’ll do these characters by the book, but for historical reference I believe that until the recent resurgence of Old School play, I only rolled my first one or two characters this way. Even back in the mid-80s, we tended to roll 4d6, drop lowest, and arrange to taste. Many crusty old D&D players will argue about the proper order of the ability scores - which matters if one is going to roll “3d6 in order” to create ability scores. The official character sheets released for BX and reproduced on page B14 show the following order: Strength, Intelligence, Wisdom, Dexterity, Constitution, and Charisma. Once generated, there was an opportunity to “adjust” ability scores by sacrificing points from one or more to boost the Prime Requisite, or most important score(s), for the class chosen by the player. There were limitations on how low an ability score could be adjusted, as well as which scores were eligible to be lowered to raise the Prime Requisites. Step 1: Warming up my dice, I get the following scores: STR: 13 INT: 9 WIS: 13 DEX: 11 CON: 11 CHA: 13 https://www.retroarcana.com/blog/character-creation-challenge-2023 monthly 0.5 2023-01-10 https://www.retroarcana.com/blog/chainmail monthly 0.5 2023-02-16 https://www.retroarcana.com/home daily 1.0 2025-06-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/9757b303-68a9-4130-97ce-6335d624b9b7/34-Daedalus.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/69bf6741-170f-45f0-a8e7-66176cec870b/37-Momotaro_inks.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/b8449df7-0c92-422f-a00e-03385c073873/DoS_Cover_color_rough1.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/44f29db6-33ef-43a3-b216-96ac7af366df/39-Basilisk_inks.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/a6dc315f-1e4d-45fa-896f-44e944e4e9c7/podcast+logo.png https://www.retroarcana.com/about daily 0.75 2025-06-20 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/ae522a12-c0f5-4ab8-afc3-2e280522b14e/1000002603.jpg https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/64dda9c3-5fab-4e79-9b4b-5df33dcc336d/1000002520.jpg https://www.retroarcana.com/podcast daily 0.75 2025-06-19 https://www.retroarcana.com/test daily 0.75 2022-12-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/637346b4fd5bc23be00f669a/61d496db-a7a6-45d7-9145-1cb876ea81f4/poster.png
