[QUOTE="Piratecat, post: 6408724, member: 2"] [B]Array 1a:[/B] Str 4, Dex 9, Con 11, Int 6, Wis 10, Cha 7. The worst character known to adventuring, he serves as village idiot before herniating himself every time he tries to pick up a milk bucket. The best we can say is that he doesn't get sick more than the average peasant. [B]Array 1b:[/B] Str 7, Dex 8, Con 9, Int 10, Wis 10, Cha 13. Weak, clumsy and sickly, this slightly charming peasant kid may attempt a life as a bard before being laughed out of the tavern. Both of those are dreadful. Under the theory that I'd rather be actively bad instead of mediocre, I'd probably play 1a until he got ambushed and killed by a pitying flumph. [B]Array 2a:[/B] Str 12, Dex 13, Con 15, Int 10, Wis 13, Cha 8. Healthy as a horse, and good stats for a ranger. But... [B]Array 2b:[/B] Str 12, Dex 15, Con 8, Int 10, Wis 4, Cha 12. OH YEAH. 15 dex and 4 wis? If these aren't stats for a rogue with [I]terrible[/I] judgment, I don't know what are. Sign me up. Now I want to run an absurdly lethal 5e game using this method, loaded down with a ton of pre-gen character sheets. [/QUOTE]
