Had the idea while i was creating my latest character.
A group of commoners take their life in their own hands, and try to run to (or away from) their destiny.
Character creation
1) You are a Human (Variant).
2) Your stats are: 13, 12, 10, 9, 9, 8 or 13, 11, 10, 10, 9, 8 (plus 2* +1 to any 2 stats for variant human)
3) You can only pick a feat (for the variant human) that does NOT give you a level 1 or higher spell. Cantrips are fair game. (Only exception is Find Familar)
3,5) No 2 (or more) PCs may choose the same feat for their starting level! (Hooray Diversity!)
4) You can pick Any background you like or make a custom one as per PhB rules (note: You would receive none of the equipment listed)
4,5) Backgrounds that grand spells, cantrips, feats or other "non-mundane" abilities are banned.
5) You pick 1 Save to have proficiency in
6) You have NO proficiency with armor or weapons unless you get a feat that provides you with such benefit.
Character Progression
1) The characters will level up, but since they ll have no class, use Character advancement table to determiner you prof score.
2) You get a feat at every odd level, starting at level 3. You get NO additional ASI.
3) No more than 2 PCs can have the same feat! (hooray diversity!)
4) You can NOT get class levels, even if you meet the criteria.
That is what i'm thinking so far.
I don't have a set storyline yet, but i ve got a few ideas.
The campaign will be Highly RP based.
There will be fights & encounters as usual, but 9 out of 10 of them would be "winable" or "bypassable" by RPing your way through/around them.
Group would be 3-5 PCs.
What ya ppl think?
