Steps to character creation

Hey y'all feel free to contact me with any inquires about this. I am going to make this a step by step guide on how to make a level 1 character with all the info for all the rules in each step and a brief description of things. To make this easier all characters will begin with starting equipment for their class and background. Don't worry you can replace it quickly for equal pricing before your first adventure. Spells will be the same and again we can do an even swap. If you know how to make a character and have the players guide feel free to do whatever as long as it is in the rules the only thing I changed was the races (pretty much a palate swap) and the religions for anyone who is affected by that. Again feel free to inundate me with questions and concerns.

The character sheet is under profile.

Step 1. Come up with a concept of who you want to be. This should be very general so you can modify it as you go but have fun and for those of you who have played with me before I will work with you just let me know when it comes to anything special you want or feel your character needs for their background, look, history, and such.

Choose a race: below is a list of the races with a short description for each including the rules. All races are a mix of animal and human which can range from more human with animal traits to a bipedal animal. I have included more detailed descriptions and pictures in the racial section under the library.
