Title: D&D 5E Rollable Tables or Point BuyBackgrounds
Post by: LegacyPrime on July 12, 2023, 09:20:47 AM
I am currently doing some work on a possible campaign in 5e and am looking for inspiration. I saw through Dark Albion, that you roll for background which gives you some increases in certain stats or skills. I am curious if anyone knows of a similar system for 5e which is not the "This is your life" Xanathar's Guide that could be interesting to look at.

Another idea was to have was to give the players a set amount of points they can place in skills and a background feature perhaps, but it might be a bit midmaxing.

Anyone have any sources for something like this or thoughts?
