I was expecting a funny video, but it turned out to be one of the best short guides about character sheets. Just enough info to at least let people know how the hell those numbers got on their character sheet and why. Well done!

I dont know how the timing worked out, but your videos have been my "to a tee" guide for the past month, i literally got interested in dnd 3 weeks ago and i made my first character a week ago. You literally could not have helped me more in guiding me across the noobs journey to dnd.

my favorite character that i’ve made is a changeling barbarian named Vesta Frankensprout who’s a gardener, and has a habanero pepper plant named Breadstick and a little mechanical ladybug she got as a gift named Roomba. it’s become almost a ritual for any new members to the party to test their spice tolerance by eating one of Breadstick’s peppers. ^^

I’ve seen a couple beginner videos but this one has honestly been the easiest to follow by far.

Awesome job!! I’ll send this video to anyone who asks me about starting D&D

[JennyvdK]

seriously Duke. You should do a whole series of guides such as these. WIth every video covering a different section of the character sheet, and other aspects of the game.

Topics like types of armor and weapons (light and heavy, one- and two-handed, ranged and melee), starting equipment options, individual races and classes's traits and abilities, the various kits (healing, herbology, forgery, etc) and how and for what they are used...

It definitely would be a playlist I'd save for repeated later reference!!! 😍

I love making Characters and making Backstories for them

Thank you for your Awesome Lessons 😊
Keep up the good work ☺️
Keep Throwing it Back 😅

I'm shocked how much content you crammed into 2:30, amazing job team.

I made a pirate who whenever drunk went deadpool mode

I love this concise breakdown, thank you! I do want to quickly add that 0:42 might be confusing for new players since you only added the +3 Dex to Acrobatics and Stealth (it was not added to Sleight of Hands).

My favorite character I made is an ex-gladiator leonion fighter that loves to play with his shawm. I worked it out with my DM do get a level one feat, Skill Expert, just so I can get expertise in performance. Love that character and will likely use him in a different campaign as well.

D&D is always fun. I really want to create my d&d world or just go to the official worlds of d&d.

Never played D&D but always wanted to try it, even set up a char in advance but unsure how it is seen by others.
The char i've made is a Gnome Necromancer with brittle bone disease, which means his Str, Dex and Con is hot garbage, However, because he cannot really be outside and jump about, his spend most of his life Reading and Studying, so his Int and Wis is fairly high, over the years he has been studying Necromancy (mostly cause he ran out of other things to study) and he got the idea to experiment with Bones, making minor constructions, not Minions, but rather Constructions, Furnitures and the likes.
So, with his knowledge of the necromancy and because of his outwards thinking, he managed to build a Throne made out of two Skeletons who are basically fused together so that they can carry him around.
Because of this creation, he has decided that it's time to do what he never could growing up, go outside and become an Adventurer!
And because of his boney throne, he is able to Move and Cast spells, since the Throne would be counted as it's own individual character (controlled by him, obvs) however, since they Are skeletons, they got f*ck all in friction and will Very easily fall over if stepping on anything slippery, should that happen or someone(thing) attacks the skeletons directly, they got a decently high risk of Dropping the gnome, which because of his brittle bones, would cause him to take fall damage.
I haven't thought of a name for the lil bugger though, cause if there is one thing i struggle with more than remembering what i was going to do 10 seconds ago, its' coming up with Names.

Thoughts?

Edit: typos.

I would argue another thing that helps bring your character to life and lets you put your personality, or any personality you choose into them, is a picture of them. Some sheets have a reverse to aggregate more bits and bobs like spells or special notes, and among those is often a box to draw your character. Giving them an appearance helps people to visualize your character and assign something more than numbers and words. You can do this however you want, be it with a pencil, a digital tablet, or even an AI art program that's the new hotness if you're not an artist or are just lazy. That's what I do with my characters. I only have 1 drawing right now, but there will be more.

I kept waiting for Ranger to show up asking for his sheet to finally be completed

[dummydee]

Playing dnd for the first time with no background in it at all. This is helped me feel a bit more confident going into session 0!

[SunnStarbornVT]

As a new DM and having to fillout sheets for my players online, thank you for making this a quick and easy to understand video and not an hour T v T

[adventureline]

thanks so much, this is the best explanation ive come across so far! Ive recently been watching DnD games here on YT and decided i want to learn, teach and play with my family. hopefully this will help them :D

[avam]

I thought this was going to be another funny video but it was actually very informative and succinct, good job

[Forgottengame]

I have a class I found on the google and it’s a jester so it’s basically a bard and rouge that can use the spells from the bard list and warlock list and it’s more of a support class that is supposed to take damage for your team but can be punishing at higher levels it seems a lot of fun to run and would definitely recommend you convince your dm to let you use this class


I found it on the unofficial dnd wiki

[coltn]

Ibe been playong dnd for a little over a year and a half now. Ive recently decided on a blood hunter vampire that i think will be amazing for flavorful combat
