attack bonus just refers to your attack bonus, not the damage so it would be +5.
In the damage section you can write 1d4+3 P (P for piercing)

anything, depend on your character concept, too many to list.
Like if you want to be a dancer, you would take the entertainer background. If you want to be a smuggler, you would pick the criminal background and so many more backgrounds...
Also in the first post did list a few backgrounds that are specific to the realms:
-City Watch (variant: Investigator)
-Clan Crafter (most likely a dwarf)
-Cloistered Scholar
-Courtier
-Faction Agent
-Far Traveler (you come from very far away)
-Inheritor: Heir of something of great value.
-Knight of the Order (inquire about specific orders of faerun)
-Mercenary Veteran
-Urban Bounty Hunter
-Uthgard Tribe Member
-Waterdhavian Noble (Noble from Waterdeep)

Guild business: (whatever for example : Painters, cooks or Cartographers , essentially any artisans.)

It's not me until I pull on a few heartstrings.
Since my character has a noble background, would be best to be a Waterdhavian Noble, with her father being the Noble? Or should I be an Inheritor due to being a Half-Elf?

@KarenAKAMint Depends what you are looking for.
-Noble is for any generic kind of noble, which can be any explanation you want.
-Waterdhavian nobles are mostly humans noble families from Waterdeep, they are known to be spoiled, eccentric and venal, of course, you don't have to follow the stereotype.
-Inheritor is not what you think, Inheritor is more like classic heroes stories of you are the heir of something special, could be an item (like a ring for example), a marking etc....like most heroes, you don't know what is the true power of your inheritance and will figure out as the story goes on.

Do you hear it? The screams of Gacha salt?
Essentually replace typical background skills and profs with a thing with big lights that say "plot hook" on it.

Yup, your background feature is a plot hook essentially. Think Sage is the only other one with a big plot hook like that.

@Legend of tomorrow I'm just going to use the character I had created before. I'm going to change a few things, and reroll the trinket. It'll be a good time for me to figure out how the dice rolling on this site works xD

Lol. [dice]23423[/dice] Don't really care for the Urn, but at least I won't have to change my backstory much xD I previously had a necklace with mummified elf fingers. I don't suppose I can just choose a trinket?
Legend of tomorrow
Junior Member
Yeah the whole point is to roll them randomly for trinkets.
Pom Pom Express

OK, are there any other things that need to be rolled randomly? I believe I've seen before you have many things as choose or roll, like bonds and such. I've manually chosen all of that stuff. If there's nothing else that needs to be randomly rolled, I think I'm ready to post my character sheet. @Legend of tomorrow

bonds and the likes you can choose no problem, should be good indeed.

OK, I'll post a character sheet, and you let me know what you think of it, if it's cool or needs some work.

@Legend of tomorrow Just realized I can use BBcode to bring in a gdoc pdf. Is it acceptable if I just bring the pdf in? Or should I just type it all out?

@Legend of tomorrow I have a friend that may be interested in joining if you're still accepting? He's an experienced player, but has no 5e gameplay experience. But he knows how to make a character and everything. He'll also be new to this site xD

@Legend of tomorrow can you check my character sheet and tell me what else I need to add.

Well, I played a little D&D when I was little, but I don't remember much, nor do I know anything of the 5th Edition, but I'm always willing to learn as I go. I've made a character to the best of my ability. I couldn't find any stuff on Far Traveler, the one Wiki thing I did find hadn't been made yet, so I used the Traveler background I found instead.
It is fanmade apparently, but it looks good. I can find something else if it isn't acceptable.

@Pom Pom Express Already a lot of people applying, so would have to say no, I mean...I think we have 6 or 7 applying already? and I thought it was going to be small group.
@Zy That Guy See sorcerer
Forgot your character Hit points.
You have only a dagger written down with the gear from the background which means you didn't choose gear from sorcerer.
You start with the following equipment, in addition to the equipment granted by your background: (choose between a or b at each line)
Let see all the attacks stuffs are wrong:
Dagger uses your dexterity modifier for attack roll and damage:
Dagger +4 (2 from proficiency, 2 from dex) and damage is 1d4+2 (dexterity)
Acid splash is just 1d6. Enemy has to beat a dexterity saving throw.
You don't have your sorcerous origin written down including class features.
Need to write down your number of spell slots. (two 1st level slots)
Your spellcasting DC and attack modifiers are worth writing down.
(Your spellcasting dc is 8 + proficiency bonus + charisma) or in your case 8+2+2 = 12
Your spellcasting attack modifier is +4 (+2 from proficiency, +2 from charisma)

@Seraph Darkfire :
Adding +1 from intelligence, just write down the total so intelligence 11 and +2 from charisma for charisma 10.
Hit points, AC etc...use your modifiers, not the ability scores. So for example : Start with the following hit points:
8+constitution modifier = So 8 + your con modifier (1) = 9 hp.
Better to write down class features instead feats, as it is something else entirely.

Thanks for the help. I forgot about using the modifiers instead of the scores, but the Class Features, Feats, and Features thing was confusing me. I've made the edits though.
