How will character creation work
New players are welcome and I can help you with the following required steps: You can either use pre-generated characters or create your own. You may create a character either in Roll20 or in DnDBeyond (with Beyond20 browser extension). The character will be reviewed by me, to check if no errors were made. Classes, subclasses and races from the following books are allowed (all shared in both DnDBeyond and Roll20): New unique options from Drakkenheim books, Player's Handbook, Volo's , Mordenkainen's Tome of Foes, Xanathar's , Tasha's , Van Richten's, Fizban's Treasury of Dragons, Mordenkainen Presents, Spelljammer, Bigby Presents and *Tome of Heroes (*Roll20 only) Character Level: Check the recruiting notes Stat generation: Standard Array or Point Buy Hit points: average and not rolled One free feat (for backgrounds that do not offer powers) You will need to select an image to represent your character and upload it to roll20.
