AL? American League? What in Toril is AL? And why is the AL sheet have the Paladin's highest score in Dexterity at 16 and Charisma is…12? I am in for more surprises. All good, I’m told there are some pre-rolled AL characters I can use. ::blink:: Chill, it was just few hours wasted. The "stats are great" I’m told, but the DM has to see them rolled. I watched a couple 5e games on YouTube, so just relax – if Jerry Holkins can do this. Now confidently bringing in my 5e character sheets to my local gaming store I’m feeling prepared and that's cool. It allows me to redistribute stats? And I could have been Dragonborn for more strength? And arguably I could be a Neutral Gnome Paladin with a sixes in STR/CON/WIS and.::gulp:: Charisma!?!?! What the hell? What happened to standards? I got great scores for a Ranger in the first hour - print it! Then Monk stats in the third hour - print it! Near the end of a day of on-again/off-again "rolling" I had what I thought I needed for a Paladin - definitely print it! Now let's start the build out.

Wow, I thought! Instead of spending days to get my Paladin I could do it in hours because it's just a single mouse click to roll 18d6. You go with what you know so I used the creator to see if I could "roll" a Pal. Found an online site with a character builder to “make it easy” for me to get "5e ready". Prior to putting my toe back in the water I sat down to do a new character. That’s a lot of front-end time to invest. And what in the 22nd Plane is a Human-Variant? Is that some EEOC thing that has made its way into fantasy gaming? That is a lot of time and effort for a character that may die in the first hour of a rough cam-pain. all immediate choices, and all of which will have an effect on everything your character does from now on. (Damn you, Drizzt!) Abilities, traits, feats, backgrounds etc. You'd think that anyone with any stats playing any class of any race with any alignment would be cake - but it's not. Now as I try to get back into gaming it seems that character creation is the hard part and gaming is what is easy. It was the playing of the character where it got hard. Paladin moral dilemmas, AC/To Hit tables, Saving throws, and that new psionics thing it was hard, but you suck it up - ‘cause I was a Pal gosh darn it! At that time the easiest thing to do was create a character(unless you wanted a Paladin). I myself had a Paladin (after days of rolling to get the min stats) who my DM loved to put into situations that gave "Lawful Stupid" it's origins. The last time I played D&D, AD&D was the latest thing (20+yrs?!?). I'll let you have a natural 20 on your Insight check. D&D Character Creation - A Disillusion/Rant/Perspective
