Dies The Light Character Build

• 8th level character
  • Roll 4d6 and drop the lowest die result to determine stats.
  • Reroll if the total result is 9 or lower.
  • If you do not have an 18 after rolling for all 6 stats, you may convert the lowest score .
• Only LE, NE, and CE alignments.
• Any Core, Base, Alternate, and Prestige class.
  • Cannot select a class that requires any Good alignment
    • Exception: A paladin who has fallen and is taking levels of Blackguard
  • Cannot select a class that does not allow Evil aligned characters, such as ‘Neutral only’.
  • If you can plead your case, I will be open to reverse this judgment and remove the alignment restriction from the class.
  • Consult DM for any 3rd party class found on the SRD or otherwise
• Any Core, Featured, or Uncommon race.
  • Ignore any Alignment restrictions for race
  • Any alternate race trait or racial class archetype may be selected
  • Consult DM for any 3rd party race found on the SRD or otherwise
  • Merfolk must do one of the following
    • Take the Strongtail alternate racial trait which increases your land speed
    • Buy a ‘Conch of Dry Land’, which can be found on the OP, or similar item.
    • Possess some spell/device to increase or subjugate their base land speed
    • Be able to cast transmutation spells that grant them a form with legs
    • Be able to cast spells that allow them fly.
• Starting Gold is 33,000
  • No single item purchased may cost more than half of this amount
    • This rule does not apply to enchanting weapons or armor
      • This does apply to the weapons and armor themselves
  • Everyone starts with a Basic Adventuring Gear Backpack for free. This will be added shortly to the OP.
    • (There might be an Advanced Adventuring Gear Backpack, if I can find the time to bang it out, with better equipment but this will require a small donation from your starting gold.)
  • If a character wants a particular item but cannot presently afford it, consult DM. With some negotiation, you might be able to receive this item….for a price.
• Select two Traits that complement your character based on their questionnaire, backstory, race or class.
  • Both traits do not have to belong to the same Trait Type.
  • Consult DM before selecting traits of the Campaign type as well as 3rd party traits found on the SRD or otherwise.
  • If you do not find any trait that applies to your character and have an idea for one that would, consult DM.
• Select and apply feats as normal.
  • Consult DM for any 3rd party feat found on the SRD or otherwise
  • Spellcasters gain the Eschew Materials feat for free.
    • When a non-spellcaster character takes a level of a spell casting capable class, they gain this feat for free.
• Assign skill points as normal.
• Spellcasters select spells as normal.
  • Even if you are not a spellcaster, you know the spell Dark Ritual, which can be found on the document on Sacrifices.

Please contact the DM with any questions that you may have.
