D&D 5E (2014) Do You Start At Level 1?

[Maxperson]

how about?

you have 5th level features or 3rd level or whatever, but you have 1st level HPs.
then every session or two, you gain 1 level worth of HPs.

I thought about that and almost suggested it for some of those in the thread. For me I like starting at 3rd, because I don't want to play a putz, and level 1 PCs are usually putzes. Level 3 is where the first signs of competence start coming into play.

Sone of those ow level adventures are good though.
