[DDG] Deity Ability Scores

[Ace32]

I'm in the process of creating some deities for my homebrew pantheon, and I'm quite stumped as to how to go about assigning ability scores to them...

They get 35, 28, 25, 24, 24, 24 to place how they please. Then you add +1 per 4 levels (including outsider) and +1 per divine Rank. It does not work for all Deities in the D&Dg, so you can fudge them a little.

Cool, thanks a ton.

And what of class levels? Are they arbitrarily assigned? Or is there some limit?

They choose their class levels just like you and I do, whatever they want. As far as limits are concerned, keep it simple and limit each class to 20 levels, at least until the ELH comes out. The book tells you how to advance saves and BAB beyond 20th level.

This is good advice. I'll add that you should use the deities they have as a basis. Don't go too over or underboard with dieties.

Damn right it's good advice. After all...it came from me. Just kidding. Here. I'll prove it. POP!!! <sound of self bursting own ego>
