https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3 This is your first steps into exploring the addiction that is D&D. en-us 2018-09-05 15:45:12 UTC 2025-12-17 01:44:06 UTC hello@padlet.com jennjenn1100 https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278051401 Find something that interest you the most. Do you like the idea of sneaking around, magical attacks, or charging head on sword swinging. Beginners Note: Try starting off with a core class at first: Barbarian, Bard, Cleric, Druid, Fighter, Monk, Paladin, Ranger, Rogue, Sorcerer, or Wizard before trying any of the more advanced classes.]]> 2018-09-05 15:59:56 UTC https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278051401 jennjenn1100 https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278057834 This is the best part in my opinion, while you can do and be anything in this game (depending on your DM) picking a race is the best. Also all races give extra abilities/upgrades to your character. Even playing a human has advantages. ]]> 2018-09-05 16:09:53 UTC https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278057834 jennjenn1100 https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278062758 If you are like me the idea of math and games should not even go together, but in D&D there is a lot of it so wrap your head around that first. But it is just basic math so if you do not have the ability to add, subtract, multiply, or divide in your head just get a calculator. ]]> 2018-09-05 16:19:14 UTC https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278062758 jennjenn1100 https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278064992 In D&D all characters have 6 ability scores: Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom, and Charisma. These scores decided pretty much everything you can and cannot do in game. They grow with your character, there are ways to add even more, and you can loose them. But how do you get the first set of scores?

There are also plenty of YouTube videos on this topic as well]]> 2018-09-05 16:43:57 UTC https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278076048 jennjenn1100 https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278078450 Now if you just play using electronic devices, the paper thing will not be an issue, but that is not for every one, so grab a crap ton of paper and some gaming dice. You will need: D20, D12, 2D10 (percent die) D8, D6, and a D4. Some people choose to buy multiple set, plus extra D6. Mine look like this!]]> 2018-09-05 16:48:23 UTC https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278078450 jennjenn1100 https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278082740 For those who do not wish to buy dice, there is an app for that.]]> 2018-09-05 16:56:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278082740 jennjenn1100 https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278094481 It is important to remember that every DM/GM is different. They set their worlds different, different rules, basically the DM/Gm has final say on everything. BE RESPECTFUL AND DO NOT ARGUE. ]]> 2018-09-05 17:16:52 UTC https://padlet.com/jennjenn1100/fqnqxq9cpzu3/wish/278094481
