In the online character sheet, while the Hill Dwarf is supposed to get a +2 to his CON (normal Dwarf Ability Score Increase) and +1 on WIS (Hill Dwarf Ability Score Increase) the character sheet does not apply either of these species traits to your stat bonuses.
At first I wondered if I was doing something wrong but when I re-created my character on the Roll20 site (still using the 2024 Barbarian as the class), it automatically applied these Hill Dwarf stats
I think it might be the sequence and your selection options that may be the issue with the hill dwarf ASI not showing
they reordered the sheet with the new edition and now the new stuff adds ASI bonuses to backgrounds, replacing the racial ASI bonus. The racial ASI is still there just don’t select a new edition background.
even if you selected to make a 2014 class the new Ed background “core rules” still show at the top of the list and if selected will override the racial ASI bonus.
try changing your characters background to a “2014 core rule” background and then switch to the abilities tab - the racial ASI bonus should show up.
Terrific, I checked the 2014 rulebook for my background and now understand what you're talking about and what's going on. Thankyou so much for taking the time to give a long explanation, it has been very helpful :)

ModeratorIf you’ve selected a 2024 background, any ability score increase from your species will be ignored (per the 2024 rules).
