Quick question on NPC ability scores:

Should they be rolled (3d6, 4d6?), standard array (15 14 13 12 10 8), or point buy (and how many)? Or maybe arbitrarily chosen?

 

[Lalato]

For the contest... I don't mind if scores are arbitrarily chosen so long as they are within reason. If the background of the NPC is such that the person is extraordinary, so be it. By the same token, if the description is of someone that is completely ordinary, the stats should reflect that.

If rolling helps in the creative process, I suggest this guideline...

3d6 for NPC classes
4d6 (drop one) for 1st - 5th level PHB classes
5d6 (drop two) for 6th+ level PHB classes
