[QUOTE="The Grassy Gnoll, post: 6516672, member: 6788652"] I just started LMoP with three players and each of them wanted to roll their stats. We used the 3d6 re-roll lowest, stats in order no swapsies technique. One ended up with 18 Con and 16 Str, played a Dragonborn and thus boosted himself to Tank status before he decided Barbarian was the path for him! His 7 Dex actually kind of works for the character race. The second player chose to be a Human and rolled pretty average across the board (11s and 12s with one 16) and chose Druid. he's now level 2 and chosen Moon Druid path, so we have a second tank. The third guy rolled absolute toilet. Think Lewis from Full Frontal Nerdity. I decided to let him re-roll everything (nothing above 10 was not going to fly!) and he ended with a 17, a 14, some averages. Went for Gnome Ranger. Interestingly, each of them decided what race they wanted to be before picking up the dice (and in the druid's case, what class too). We did everything random, Traits, Flaws, even what colour dragon heritage. Worked out nice, and I have to say the Trinkets work nicely too for extra characterisation - especially the pipe that blows bubbles going to the hard as nails Dragonborn Barbarian who, we decided, likes to look at his pretty scales reflected in the bubbles when he isn't stoving someone's head in.
