Creating your character
1st-level characters on Session 0, using Option 2 buying abilities this allows players 12 points to use in their 9 stats. But again no player will have create a character on their own.
What to expect
Preparing for the session
A computer or phone are required to play, and you will need have a discord other than that use should be fine. I have taught many of brand-new players how to play and have played with many of gamers with even more knowledge than myself and we always seem to have a great time.
What DJ brings to the table
As for characters, I will provide a .pdf of a Fillable Character Sheet and, the Expanse over Discord and/or Google Drive.
