l have been haveing fun rolling up characters. normaly, l would come up with some idea for a character, and if it passes the initial idea phase, tweak it and make it a character with point buy. but today, l decided to use the (new? l havent seen it untill this week, but it could have been there longer) skill die roller, and made some fun characters l wouldnt have otherwise.
for example, l just rolled 9,13,9,8,16,6. l turned those rolls into a half elf rogue (8 into chr, 9s into wis&int,which were all bosted to 10 thanks to the half elf racal asi, with 6 being str)
not sure how l'll rollplay them, but this is someone l never would have made without those rolls.
(l also love rolling for 2 other reasons: 1:i can roll 16-18, where as point buy caps at 15, and 2: the math rocks make the click clack sound!)
Actually the point buy is a new system. Well newish to DND. Other RPGs have been using Point Buy for decades. Skill Die Roller, as you termed it, has been used in DND since the 1970's
