Judging

These are a few things to consider when making your character

• Backstory:

  • What did your character do before they started adventuring?

  • Why are they adventuring?

  • Are they brave and heroic? A bit of a coward? Somewhere in between?

  • What made them this way?

  • What experiences have shaped their view of the world?
    

• Adventure:

  • How did they get to level 5?

  • What loot did they get?

  • Did they learn anything?

  • Did it change their attitude or the way they see things?

  • What are their Future plans?
    

• Role Play:

  • How do they roleplay?

  • What are their strengths and flaws?

  • Do their skills, spells, and equipment make sense with their backstory? (Avoid describing them as clumsy if they have a high Dexterity score, for example.)
    

• Mechanics:

  • Are they built correctly? (correct level, ability scores, skills, etc.)

  • How do they play?

  • Do they seem fun to play?

  • Maybe describe your character’s approach to combat and/or problem solving.
    

• Art/Physical description:

  • A little art goes a long way!

  • What does your character look like?

  • What do they carry on their person at all times?

  • Whether or not you’re a great artist, describe them for us anyway, please!

  • And remember you can add art anywhere on the character sheet!
    

• Judge’s Choice:

  • Judges love unique characters!

  • What would a DM like?
