Randomized Ability Score

Ability Score Rolling

This is an optional, albeit more controlled way to generate your character's ability scores. To begin, roll a d20 for each table in order: weak stat 1, weak stat 2, average stat 1, average stat 2, strong stat 1, strong stat 2.

DM Tip: Score Disparity

If the sum of all the rolls in an array results in big variance between each party members (5-10), consider allowing the players to swap array or use the same array.

Weaknesses

These are your "weaknesses" - areas where your character simply isn't gifted or hasn't focused.

Weak Stat 1		Weak Stat 2
d20	Score	d20	Score
1	7	1	5
2	8	2-3	6
3-6	9	4-6	7
7-10	10	7-10	8

16-18	12	15-17	10
19-20	13	18-19	11

Averages

These are your average stats, neither neglected nor specialized.

18-19	15	19	14
20	16	20	15

Strengths

These are your "strengths" - areas where you're either gifted or have heavily invested in.

More-random Variant

Unlike the tables above, this allows for more variance in ability scores.

• Roll 3d6 for two stats, these are your "weaknesses" - areas where your character simply isn't gifted or hasn't focused.

• Roll 4d6k3 for two stats, these are your average stats, neither neglected nor specialized.

• Roll 6d6k3 for two stats, these are your "strengths" - areas where you're either gifted or have heavily invested in.
