    it’s what you write your character it include things like their class (fighter, wizard, cleric etc) their stats (charisma, wisdom, intelligence, strength, dexterity, and constitution) (you decided this by rolling 4d6 and dropping off the lowest one for example if you roll a 4 2 3 and 5 that would be a 12 since you drop off the 2) this is also where you determine what race is your character (Dragonborn, human, elf, fairy, etc in this case though we will be using pokemon homebrew characters) (homebrew means that it was not made officially) it is also where you list how your character looks like their backstory (or a shortened version you can write their backstory elsewhere just let the dm know so if they want to tie something from your backstory into the plot they can) it’s where your items and money is listed your alignment (good, neutral, evil, chaotic neutral, chaotic good, chaotic evil, lawful good, lawful neutral, and lawful evil) it has your characters name and characters level also players name

    I can help you make your character (also you need a 4sides dice (d4) a 6 sided dice (d6) a 8 sided dice (d8) a 10 sided dice (d10) a 10 sided dice that counts by 10’s (d100) and most importantly a 20 sided dice (d20) doesn’t matter physical or digital

    Okay...

    I will need some guidance as we go and I don't have that dice you mentioned

    I don't know my level, but probably the lowest it can be since I've never played

    If we're going with the actual DND classes, the rest of this is useless

    Can I be a trainer with a team of six?

    I want a Charizard, Blaziken, Cinderace, Inteleon, Quaquaval, and Meowscarada

    I'm the Sensational Starter User!

    Name: Izzy

    Gender: Really doesn't matter, but I'll go female

    Long brown hair that's on a ponytail, hazel eyes, wears all black (black jacket, black shirt, black jeans, black boots)

    She's adventurous and out going, always down to do whatever

    But she's also reckless and rash, never considering the consequences of what she does

    She's playful and friendly, but very gullible and easily taken advantage of

    Back story is she grew up in a town where everyone is nice and friendly, so that explains her trusting and friendliness

    She started her journey when she was 12, growing up dreaming of adventure

    Nobody came with her, though, all wanting to stay at the town

    This caused her to become lonely in her travels, not used to or being able to handle being alone

    So any time she meets someone she immediately clings to them, craving someone to be with

    I don't like that phrasing, so I'm going to specify not romantically

    There's no reason she uses starters only

    She just does

    If her Pokémon needs to evolve during the game then I'll just use their basics

    If I need to be a Pokémon, I'll be a Blaziken (or Torchic if we need to be basic)

    I will be daring and bold and prefer to fly solo

    I don't like being around others and is easily overwhelmed, which makes me aggressive

    Usually seem as rude, I say whatever I think

    I will never back away from a challenge

    Don't have a back story unless needed

    If one is needed you can give me one

    I don't know if I did this right, so let me know and we can change what needs to be changed

    I made that before typing my thing

    I might be able to find something

    I think it’s better to just do a Pokemon as a race instead of trainer with Pokemon cause having multiple other member makes combat drag out quite a while

    Alright

    I'm a Blaziken!

    Or a Torchic that will evolve into Blaziken

    If we do the second one, I remember earlier you mentioned levels

    What if that level is the level of the Pokémon we are?

    Since I'm the lowest level (I assume 1), I'm a Torchic

    But once I reach the evolution level I can evolve

    Or do you have a different way you want to do it?

    I'm just sharing ideas

    Well, I personally love D&D! It was how I met some of my closest friends!
    I'm all for this idea! The biggest problems are (in general) getting it to work, and (for me) that I don't really have a schedule, meaning while I may be free most of the time, I have no idea if or when something's going to pop up. And there are days like today where I sleep in until noon.
