[QUOTE="tetrasodium, post: 9285720, member: 93670"] I've done the same. There's nothing to tell.. you might as well be asking for a riveting retelling of "roll initiative". Times I did it differ from [USER=7037866]@ezo[/USER] in that I check the sheet with everyone's exp and say "ok your new PC has =spreadsheetcell/2 experience. Send me the sheet/PDF when you are done with it". It would be nice to make the party outfit new PCs with unsold magic items like in older editions where a glut of unused items would get players thinking and bring up $newpc as an adventure is wrapping up, but 5e can't really handle enough extra magic items for that to work. Now I've learned that I can't even work with players on new magic items after getting the sheet and need to wait till the PC is in play before giving them a sheet because too many get outraged when I refuse to allow them to rebuild a whole new PC around the custom magic item made to be balanced for the original new PC they sent me.
