1) Deep gnomes not as player characters. page 11 ( I have added mountain gnomes which I haven’t detailed yet.)

2) weapon speed on page 27

3) social class and rank on page 82 is only for Royalty, Cavaliers, and Paladins.

4) Monk additions in the UA will have to be looked at so I can decide what, if any, of that I’ll add to my game world.

Rolling up several characters using 4d6. Drop lowest number, re-roll 1s or 2s results, but not every dice roll.

Most stats are average, with some 17s and 18s. Str = Strength, Int = Intelligence, Wis = Wisdom, Dex = Dexterity, Con = Constitution, Cha = Charisma. I don’t use Comeliness in the Unearthed Arcana book.

First character; Str 12, Int 12, Wis 15, Dex 15, Con 15, Cha 11 Going with Magic-User/Thief Link to High elf character classes

Second character; Str 15, Int 13, Wis 12, Dex 14, Con 13, Cha 11 Going with Tallfellow Halfling Cleric/Thief Link to Tallfellow Halfling character classes

Third character; Str 18, Int 14, Wis 14, Dex 17, Con 15, Cha 13. Going with Half elf ( high elf), Cleric/Fighter. Roll for percentile Str is 73%, so Str is now 18/73. Link to half-elf (high elf) character classes)

Fourth character; Str 17, Int 14, Wis 11, Dex 16, Con 14, Cha 11 Going with Human fighter. Link to Human character classes

Fifth character is an NPC. Will take direction from the player characters, not the referee. Str 18/21, Int 15, Wis 15, Dex 16, Con 18, Cha 12.
Half elf (wood elf) character classes Yes, I worked the dice giving better than typical stats.

Characters one through four will start at first level, the NPC will be second level in one or two classes.

Do’s and Don’ts.

Do these please.

1. Party unity is important.

2. How I word something could be very useful in the game. Like solving a puzzle, or finding the treasure, rescue the villager, etc.

3. If you are unsure your character is allowed an action under the rules, please ask me.

4. Good suggestions are a plus. If you don’t speak up, we will never know what you were going to say.

Don’ts.

Please don’t do these.

1. Please, no arguing.

2. Please don’t cheat on your die/dice rolls.

Previous game sessions, 1980 through 1985, caused me to have to type these up.

Since there are 6 human groups on Crestar, some character classes/combos may not have all character classes available. Some live above the tree line, so druid character class may not be available, as an example.

Human multi-class is slightly different that of other character classes multi-classes.

Humans must do one level of the first class listed below, gaining second level. Then the second character class must be learned, and advance to second level. No adventuring in the first character class, until second level is reached in the second character class. When both classes are at second level, then human multi-class advances like other multi-class character races. The human must meet the stat and alignment requirements for both classes. Once both character classes are second level, then human multi-class advances the same as non-human multi-class characters. See the AD&D 1E PHB for details.

After reading a long discussion on Dragon’s Foot forums, I decided that one game month of training for the second multi-class for humans would be how I am ruling on this. This presumes the player character will be using some part of their first character class training time learning about the second character class. Therefore one game week will be added to training times for the first character class.
