While filling specifics, I figured sheets can take varied amounts of time. So for this reason, I figured that I should give the information so people can start creating their sheets. If anyone has any questions with creation, feel free to ask me and I feel there are other players who can help also.
Starting level is level 3. Classes permitted on creation are limited from the core book. I know some people might want to play something special, but that is something that that can be worked into the story as a way to develop. Hit points are maximized and stats are a point based system instead of rolling with all stats starting at 10 plue you are given 20 freebie points. Raising a score to 17 costs 2 points and to 18 costs 3 points. On creation, scores can not be above 18 before racial modifiers, so if you wanted to go the route, with a human for example, you could raise a skill to 20.
Instead of taking the approach of XP solely through killing, it will be awarded through goal progression. Some of these may not be "kill stuff." Extra XP can also be earned for playing your class to it's strengths. Fighters who bash in heads to keep the party safe: Great. Rogues who disarm traps and capitalize on enemy weaknesses: Fantastic.
