Bonus Episode - Creating Awesome Player Characters (Alternate)
Role Play Chat is a YouTube channel where your hosts Chris and Mat sit down and chat about Tabletop Role-Playing Games and other RPG related topics.
In this bonus episode of Role Play Chat we revisit the topic of Player Characters and what we use as the core of our creative process. We also touch on a number of topics related to PCs such as:
- What is at the core of Chris and Mat's Player Characters?
- How we feel about the impact of a rolling dice to determine Ability Scores or statitics.
- Player powers, feats, stunts or abilities and where they fit into our PC creation.
- Some of our favorite player powers (feel free to steal these for your games!)
- How we consider our place in the party when creating a PC.
- Our method of developing a backstory and leaving gaps in the story to facilitate integration into the world and plot.
- We look through and comment on the steps found in the 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons Players Handbook.
- We describe the way we created Player Characters for our games with our players and we talk about the pros and cons of our methods.
Enjoy!
Chris and Mat
