While I have technically missed the start of the 2022 Character Creation Challenge, I'm not so far behind to make catching up impossible.
So here is PC 1, for the B/X game, because I do love that ruleset.
3d6 down the line; according to the rules, this PC qualifies for Dwarf, Elf, Fighter, Halfling, and Thief, with Prime Requisite xp bonuses further narrowing options to Dwarf (+10%), Fighter (+10%), Halfling (+10%), and Thief (+5%). As an xp-lover, that still leaves me with three options, so I'll dice for class - and Dwarf it is.
Meet Snorri Ironfoot the Dwarven Veteran, Lawful Dwarf 1
S 16 +2 to hit, damage, and open doors
I 11 reads and writes native languages
W 11 normal magic-based saving throws
D 13 +1 to hit with missile weapons, -1 AC adjustment, +1 initiative adjustment
C 12 no adjustment to hit points
Ch 7 -1 adjustment to reactions, 3 maximum retainers, retainer morale is 6
Current XP: 0 XP needed for next level: 2200
AC 3
HP 6
Equipment: chainmail and shield, axe, crossbow, standard adventuring gear, a fancy top hat
Goal(s): to found his own clanhold, die gloriously, sample new root vegetables and mushrooms
Flaw(s): trusts people with beards, distrusts beardless people
This being a BX PC, I would be remiss to not use this excellent starting headgear table from BX Blackrazor, and if this were a home game, I would also use this excellent zodiac signs table from New Big Dragon Games (Snorri is a Cancer, btw).
