The character generator on DDB is my favorite feature on the site, and I just like making characters. It's fun, I get to know the game system better, and it's just a way I like to kill time every once and a while. That being said, I've started clicking the Randomize link in the character creator, just to see what I get. It's actively hilarious how insane of characters you get out of the generator; this is part feedback, and part just pure amusement. So, what's the worst character you can get with the Randomize feature? I just did two of them.
Graser Pingun, a Deep Gnome Barbarian, level 12. STR 7, CON 7. I'd love to know how Graser survived up to level 12.
How Beimar Othronus, a level 9 Drow Druid with a 12 Wisdom, which is at least not completely awful. The fun part? STR 19, CON 19, INT 4, and the kicker . . . proficient in History, an INT-based skill.
I feel like I need to run a campaign at some point where everybody creates a random character and is stuck with whatever they get. My guess is it would be a one-shot because using random seems like an instant invitation for a TPK.
Edit: I missed the part that said worst this was just the first I tried.
Mine were the first two I called up, but, as far as I'm concerned, first, worst, whatever. The third one I made was actually vaguely competent; a level 16 Tiefling Eldritch Knight with 13 STR . . . who had taken all ability bonuses, and zero of those ability bonuses were STR or DEX. WIS and CHA over and over.
