Character Creation

Creating a player character in this world is mostly like any other D&D 5E setting, but with a few restrictions as well as a few additions.

• All official classes can be played, but there are some lore restrictions to the artificer. On second thought, fuck the artificer. Magic in this world is a whole lot rarer than in the original D&D settings, and creating magical items at level 2 is unheard of. If you want to play something thematically similar, may I suggest playing as a Clockwork Custodian?
• A complete list of playable races can be found here: Races. A few of these races are custom made for this setting and some of them are playable now:
  • Bogles
  • Clockwork Custodian (replaces warforged)
  • Drenov (replaces drow)
  • Ruunoth (replaces loxodon)
• In addition to official background options, there are setting specific ones, found here: Backgrounds.
• All players start with 1 free feat. The lucky feat is banned. Some custom backgrounds and races get access to additional feat options.
• All players (except those playing a Clockwork Custodian) choose a month of birth or roll on the table below, receiving a stat bonus. If choosing, one can only choose one of the first 13 options. Roll 1d20 or choose from 1-13:
