[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 7137907, member: 6801845"] Nothing has been added here for a while. Point buy (my preference): [LIST] [*]I come up with characters when we start talking about the campaign. [*]I don't want to rely on random luck to see if I can play the character I want to play. [*]I don't really care what my stats are as long as they are reasonable and on an even footing with other characters in the group. Not because it's a competition, but because I want a chance to contribute to the team at the same level as the rest of the group. [*]I don't see the point to randomizing stats for a character I'm going to play for hundreds of hours [*] [/LIST] Random Rollers: [LIST] [*]Like to let the dice determine the character [*]If the dice give a character you don't like (or don't grow attached to) find a way to die. [*]If you don't like random characters it's because you aren't [S]good enough[/S] skillful enough player to come up with an awesome character if you have below average stats. [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
