So I recently created this character for the curse of strahd campaign and I noticed the initiative modifier was incorrect. I was wondering if anyone could point out anything I did that could be wrong, or if it was just a bug from the sheet.
You're a bard with Jack of All Trades, which gives you +1/2 proficiency to all ability checks, which does include initiative. Your initiative is being calculated as Dex (4) + 1/2 Prof (1)
Thank you, I never would have thought jack of all trades effects initiative. It is sort of a weird kind of interaction where you can't get normal proficiency or expertise though which throws me off.
