Any advice on rolling hit points? I got a one on my roll...really happy with that, just asking for a friend. :lol:

I played in a pretty hard core draconian PbP on Dragonsfoot once, and the GM had everyone using a die roller, no re-rolls, accept what you got, and we had this wizard with 1 HP, and no CON bonus. GM was like "NO REROLLS! ROLEPLAY THE GUY!" And the fella with the 1 HP character played him, and that dude was like TEFLON. We'd be in these unwinnable situations, everyone would be getting beat up and that guy just had the luckiest rolls. He made it to like 4th level before the game folded, and I think even at 4th he only had like 6 or 7 HP. Dude was a disaster, but the guy played him to perfection.

As someone who tends to get mediocre dice rolls, I have embraced online dice rollers. Internet be praised!

That being said, since this is my virgin voyage at pbp, take max hit point at first level.

Any feedback on anything I have posted so far? I am typing on a Kindle tablet, which is really horrible for my composition skills....

Also, think about WHY your character is in the city. Born there? Traveler? Ne'er-do-well looking for trouble money?

History of Mirabilis to come later today....

Looking cool thus far. I'll get a character rolled up in the next day or so - been super busy these past two weeks. Ugh.

@badams, wouldn't Alphonse get 6 hp? I believe magic users start with d6 for hit dice in WBFMAG.
