Dungeons and Dragons -Tips for Awesome Character Creation
There are ways to ensure that each player’s avatar in the game won’t soon be forgotten. Elements like the personal history of the character and background choices are the milestone for building an iconic character that will be as exciting to play with and ensure its survival too.
Background check
A character’s background is about more than where they came from, it’s things like the elements of their life that drive their ambition. The established backgrounds give players a rigid ground or a strong leg to stand on before they take their character to the next stage with a custom personality built. Backgrounds also give a character things like Ideals, Flaws, Bonds, and Personality Traits which lead to an enriched experience.
Ideals
People are driven by their ideals. So, it’s a rare thing for someone to be completely incorruptible because it’s not possible for everyone to do everything to achieve their objective, and also it’s difficult to find a person who is more evil than good.
Personality
Personality will determine just how the character appears and how they interact and get along with others. Asking questions during character creation about how their personality affects their hairstyle choices and fashion choices, and how they portray themselves in social situations, can go a long way to building an iconic character. Coupling this with their history and background will shape the way they talk, including their accent, which overall defines the character traits.
Bonds they make
Bonds are one of the most important things people hold and it goes for Dungeons and Dragons too. Family, friends, mentors and even nemesis can shape a person in ways that define them.
Flaws
Nobody is perfect, and it holds true in real life as well as the game itself. Whether the flaws are physical, mental or psychological, they play a major role in shaping who the character is.
