Whether you’re running an impromptu game with limited time for character creation, you want to get a new player into an established game quickly, or you need a new PC to replace a dead adventurer, these optional rules are for you. These rules can be used instead of the normal process of character creation, replacing the choice and creativity of that process with a series of tables that quickly generate a 1st-level character. With the exception of backgrounds, these rules focus on the character options available in the D&D Basic Rules as a means of keeping things simple. ### Alignment | d6 | Alignment | |:---:|:-----------:| | 1 | Lawful Good| | 2 | Neutral Good | | 3 | Chaotic Good | | 4 | Lawful Neutral | | 5 | Neutral | | 6 | Chaotic Neutral | ### Background Backgrounds already make use of random tables to flesh out your character, and are easy to apply. You can roll a d20 to use the full list of backgrounds from the Player’s Handbook. | d20 | Background | |:---:|:-----------:| | 1-2 | Acolyte| | 3 | Charlatan | | 4-5 | Criminal | | 6 | Entertainer | | 7-8 | Folk Hero | | 9-10 | Guild Artisan | | 11 | Hermit| | 12 | Noble | | 13-14 | Outlander | | 15 | Sage | | 16-17 | Sailor | | 18-19 | Soldier | | 20 | Urchin | \columnbreak Alternatively, for players who are comfortable defining a character’s personality traits, ideals, bonds, and flaws through roleplaying, the quick character generation process can be made even quicker by foregoing a background, instead rolling for the skill and tool proficiencies normally provided by a background. Roll four times on the following table, rerolling any duplicate results. | d20 | Proficiency | |:---:|:-----------:| | 1 | Acrobatics | | 2 | Animal Handling | | 3 | Arcana | | 4 | Athletics | | 5 | Deception | | 6 | History | | 7 | Insight | | 8 | Intimidation | | 9 | Investigation | | 10 | Medicine | | 11 | Nature | | 12 | Perception | | 13 | Performance | | 14 | Persuasion | | 15 | Religion | | 16 | Sleight of Hand | | 17 | Stealth | | 18 | Survival | | 19 | Carpenter’s tools | | 20 | Thieves’ tools | In place of a background feature, once during any game session, you can pick a nonplayer character you meet and declare that your character knows that NPC. The relationship is respectful but not necessarily friendly. The DM determines the exact nature of your relationship. ### Class and Abilities Roll a d6 to determine your class from the following table, which is more likely to generate a fighter or cleric than a rogue or wizard. Especially if you’re randomly generating an entire party, tilting the odds in favor of fighters and clerics can help shore up a group’s ability to survive in combat. Alternatively (or if you’re generating a single character joining an already balanced party), you can roll a d4 and give each class an equal chance of being generated. \pagebreakNum \pagebreak
