[Eberron / 13th Age] Lucky Number 13

[SageGenesis]

The system is 13th Age.

The setting is Eberron, where the number 13 is a special theme throughout its setting; there are 13 nations, there are 13 other planes of existence, there are 13 moons (although did one disappear a long time ago), there are 13 special dragonmarks. And so on.

How is this not a match made in heaven?

How do you all want to do stat generation?
a. The classic 4d6 drop the lowest, six times.
b. The more balanced point-buy.
c. You get one free 16 and roll the rest with 4d6 drop lowest, guaranteeing you have a great stat.
d. Something else, probably involving ouija boards and grasovka?

Still stoked.

I love rolling but it does often end up in unfair scores if you look at individual outcomes. For a short, throw-away campaign I'd be fine with it, but I think I'd prefer point-buy for max fairness.

If we do feel like having some more fun with chargen, I'd still say no to classic 6x4d6, but 16 + 5x4d6 would be acceptable!

Wasn't the Ebberon setting kinda steam punkish?

[SageGenesis]

A bit more magitech than steam, but yeah, it sort of is!

[voh]

HENCE THE STOKEDNESS
