Creating Dungeons & Dragons characters. I found that for first time players it is difficult to overcome the initial onslaught of information and rules. So I created a form-based questionnaire that abstracts out most of the uninteresting parts of creating a character, their stats. Based on how a player answered the questions, they are emailed a filled-out character form along with relevant information to their character if they want to read up more.
This saves me and each player a fair bit of time, as every new player gets a personalized starting point, making explanations shorter and more relevant.
- rupertdev 9y agoI'd love to see the code for this, happen to have a public repo?
- sronors 9y agoI just made one! It can be found here[0]. Not perfect and relies on a Google Form for now, so a Google account is needed to view and copy the form. Also, if you want it to take sections of the Player's Handbook, you need a PDF of it! Depending on your PDF, the page numbers may need to be tweaked. Let me know what you think!
