Character creation

Creating your character

We'll build your character together before the campaign begins. Whether you want to play a wandering adventurer, noble, mercenary, wizard, cleric, rogue, monster hunter, or something entirely unique, we'll make sure your character naturally fits the Forgotten Realms. Official D&D 5e content is fully supported. Balanced homebrew is welcome when it fits the campaign. Starting level, equipment, wealth, and personal goals are discussed during Session Zero and adapted to the current party. My goal isn't simply to approve your character. It's to create someone whose choices truly matter in the world.

How Manu creates a safe table

🧭 Session Zero We’ll discuss expectations, character concepts, and boundaries before play begins. 🚧 Lines & Veils Sensitive topics will be handled carefully, with player input ensuring that no one feels uncomfortable. ❌ X-Card If something arises during play that makes you uncomfortable, you can use this tool to pause and adjust the scene. 💬 Check-Ins Regular feedback ensures the campaign stays enjoyable for everyone. 🔄 Debriefing At the end of each session, we take a few minutes to share thoughts and feedback. This helps align expectations, address concerns early, and create a better, safer play environment for everyone.
