Eupo's Inspiring, Balanced and Interesting Character Generator

For Dungeons & Dragons 5e!

Ability Score Total:

Modifier Total:

List Of The Most Important Criteria

The character rolled will have at least one Ability Score of 15 or 16
There will be no Ability Scores under 7, but least one with a negative Modifier
The character will have a Stat Total (i.e. all Ability Scores added) of anything between 72 and 75
The Ability Scores will have a limited number of duplicates - no more than a single pair and no three alike

Plan For A Class

Now is the time to pretty much decide on which class you would like to play and probably reallocate some ability scores accordingly. You only get to swap two ability scores though, so you'll have to let what you've got here inspire your choice of class. Don't forget that you can also raise ability scores as you gain levels.

If you want to, you can look at the list of races below. Sometimes, thinking about race the same time you swap Ability Scores will be what makes a good character. For instance, a character with lots of odd Ability Scores benefits greatly from being a Human, since only even Ability Scores increases Modifiers.

Generally, you'll want your best ability score to be your class' most frequently used attack modifier; STR for Fighters, DEX for Rogues, INT for Wizards, WIS for Clerics and Druids, CHA for Warlocks and Sorcerers. Other classes (and some subclasses) can be a bit more complicated to get right - if you are curious, take a look at page 45ff in the Player's Handbook or simply talk it over with your DM.

Next step, we'll find a race that compliments your choices. If you do not want to swap any of the ability scores, just click the swap button without having any checkboxes marked to skip ahead.

Copy To Mail

Now the character is done and all there remains is to fill it into your character sheet. For ease and backup, you can copy/paste this tiny text snippet and send it to both player and DM as an e-mail.

- As simple and solid as can be.

Good luck on all of your adventures!

Pick A Race

As Socucius Ergalla says; "There are a few ways we can do this, and the choice - is - yours".

Perhaps you want a character with as high main ability scores as possible
Maybe you want a character with as good average modifiers as possible
Could be you feel that playing a certain race completely outshines any ability score advantages you might get or has benefits this tool hasn't catched on to

Whichever may be the case, here are some tailored suggestions:

Your character's best ability scores would benefit the most from choosing to be a .
This would increase only one of your two best modifiers by +1 and place it at +.

However, there is also the "Humanity" races to consider - Human, Variant Human and Half Elf - where some ability scores are raised just enough to improve the modifiers (raising an odd ability score to an even increases the modifier by one).

Choosing to be a could increase your total modifiers by + and place your best ability at a + modifier.
