Character Creation

From Medaevum

Character creation has changed a lot over the years. If you see references to stats or rules or the like on pages that don't seem to line up with the character creation process outlined here, assume the version of character creation on this page is the most up to date.

This is a step by step guide on how to create a character in Medaevum.

To see how the choices that influence your character will be used in the course of play, consult this page: Systems.

Lineage

The default is human. You can also play an Artificer or Vitravn, which are listed below as a class. You can play an elf, but elves have some baggage attached to them. All you need to do is let a DM know that you intend to play one, and they may be played as a Knight, Scholar, or Freeman.

Attributes

Roll 2d10 four times, and add 25 to the result of each roll. After rolling, distribute the results as you like across the four attributes.

  • Strength
  • Speed
  • Intellect
  • Combat

Saves

Roll 2d10 three times, and add 10 to the result of each roll. After rolling, distribute the results as you like across the three saves.

  • Sanity
  • Fear
  • Body

Health & Stress

Roll 1d10 to determine their health, and add 10 to the result.

All characters start with 2 maximum Wounds.

All characters start with a minimum of 2 Stress.

Starting Wealth

Roll 2d10 for their starting wealth, and multiply the result by 10.
