Doing the work for them isn't going to give them the experience of reading the rules and putting them to use. I agree that designing a character is a lot of work at times but it shouldn't be glossed over. I look at it as a test. If you want to play a game with a lot of rules and other information to use while playing then you should be willing to do the work to learn how to play.I have had potential players decide not to play because I wouldn't do the work for them. I'm fine with that. If you want to play at my table you need to be willing to read the rules.</blockquote>
