Your SL Character

*orders a crate of fine port and books a flight to NYC*

Okay, the only time I played this system, I was a halfling riding a bear, which I'm told is a really bad idea unless the DM is on your side, but here:
Strength - 11-you'll see this balanced in Charisma
Intelligence - 17 - and yet I've funneled next to none of it into computers...
Dexterity - 14 - you're not the boss of me, I do what I wan'
Wisdom - 16 - when I choose to use it
Constitution - 11-I seem easily defeated in the short term, but I shows up again and again and again and again...
Charisma - 6-hell, half the time I'm a spider.

D&D.......
Hah
I laugh at your Puny D&D
now the Chaosium games, there was a game system that was good.
Id rather see Call of Cthulhu stats, so I'd know who was still sane.

Strength - 18
Intelligence -12
Dexterity - 15
Wisdom -2
Constitution -18
Charisma -14
Snark - priceless

MMMmmmMmm Port.

There are two ways to determine your stats in D&D 3.5 edition and they are as follows:

1) Dice rolling
- Roll 4 6-sided dice and drop the lowest of those 4. Add the three together and write this number down
- Do this 6 times
- These 6 numbers represent your stats, and you can put them anywhere you want.
- House rule I've commonly seen: If none of your numbers are over 10/11, reroll all 6.

This is the truly random approach. But can suck if you have a bunch of 10s and then a single 17 or something. You'd be really creative in SL but a hermit-introvert-idiot otherwise.

2) Point buy
- All your stats begin at 8 I think and you have 25 points to spend
- Each point costs 1 to buy 1 stat point until you get to like 18 or 20 (I don't have my player's handbook with me right now).
- Example, I want an 18 Dex so I have to dump 10 points (2/5 of them) into Dex, leaving me 15 to spend on the rest of my stats.

This is a more controlled effect, but limits you by not having that random chance from above of having all 18's or something.

Another thing to consider is that as you level (every 4 levels) you will get a stat bonus and can apply that to any stat you wish. And every two levels starting with the evens are what determine the stat bonus when making rolls. So if you have a 17 in Dex, you have a +3 bonus - then you level up and bump that to 18 and now you're at a +4. I guess my point is that planning your stats is more than just picking high numbers. But then again, no one is going to fight a 10-headed large hydra or an army of orcs based on these stats.

Mine would be something like this (using point-buy):
STR = 9
CON = 10
DEX = 18
INT = 12
WIS = 11
CHA = 13

long live threads that let people talk about themseleves!

Because you're Steward of Caledon - try again when your term ends.

Hmmm... I think you are much too hard on yourself. The corrected stats:

Strength: 17
Intelligence: (1)8 *
Dexterity: 18
Wisdom: (2)2**
Consitution1)7 ***
Charisma:18

*Anyone that can merge science and SL in such fun and interesting ways deserves way better. And you have learned Maya pretty quickly. Plus, you get a points for "vision".
**You know the vision thing. And since you are the goddess of the metaverse, you must have to one stat above 18. It's a rule I think.
***Pfft! Your consitution may have started out poor, but for bearing the slings and arrows of outrageous accusations have toughened you considerably. Plus, you have the stamina to stay awake 24x7 to post on the forums. *looks at Aimee's post count* Wowza.

Waitaminute! *grabs Aimee's dice and peers at them*

Don't care much for D&D, so I did Nobilis instead.

Dyne Talamasca
Countess of Synergetic Discordancy and Viscountess of Noneuclidean Love Polygons

ATTRIBUTES
Aspect 2 (Legendary) - Dyne is capable of feats which are improbable or even impossible for mundane humans, such as sticking an entire Victorian-Steampunk Clocktower in her pocket, but such tasks are not performed frequently. Smaller-scale miracles permit her to exceed human capacity in many areas, such as outrunning your average vehicle (especially at sim borders), or performing dance steps with computer-like precision every time. She can use the Aspect 2 miracle of Guising at will to perform a sort of limited shapeshifting in order to seem a natural part of the surrounding culture in SL. (But often she doesn't bother.)

Domain 3/2 (Countess/Viscountess) - Dyne has control over the estate of Synergetic Discordancy (a domain that covers things working well together that individually seem likely to clash), as well as the estate of Noneuclidean Love Polygons (the domain of relationship geometries, including everything from relatively mundane couples, through love triangles, all the way up to more esoteric species like topologically continuous inverted hyper-dodecahedra, and beyond)

Realm 1 (Warden) - Although many miracles are possible within her realm of Shadows Lying in Locus Caledon, such as the ability to rez and derez a limited number of objects, her ability to affect the Chancel on a deeper level is restricted. This is because the Imperator Desmond Shang reserves certain abilities to himself and to the current Erus (aka Steward) of Locus Caledon.

Spirit 1 (Candleflame) - Although Dyne has some protection against miraculous attack from other avatars (Auctoritas of 3), sustained attack is something of a drain on miraculous resources.

HANDICAPS
Limit of Spirit: Cartographophobia - Dyne's Auctoritas can be horribly weakened when in the presence of the SL World Map, frequently resulting in complete (albeit temporary) disconnection from virtual reality, tossing her back into a rather shabby-looking prosaic reality.

GIFTS

1. Mythological: Flight without wings (1 point)
   
2. Mythological: Shapeshifting (2 pt comprehensive version) - beyond Guising, Dyne is a natural shapeshifter.
   
3. Durant (1 pt) - Dyne is difficult to injure. Even the most grievous injuries typically merely sends her back to her chancel
   
4. Immortal (6 pts) - There are very few ways to kill Dyne, most involving an occult code known only as TOS.
   
5. Immutable (1 pt) - Dyne can survive indefinitely without food, water, air, or sleep. Idle timeout is a problem, however.
   
6. Teleport (1 pt Miracle of Domain: Lesser Change of Position, Simple Miracle, Self only, One trick)

Entropy Linden (also known as Philip, the bloody-handed but nicely coifed Lord), the Imperator that rules the Grid Ash, is responsible for the extra gifts that many in the Society of Flowery Invincible Content-creators possess (flight, teleportation, etc.).

CODE
Dyne holds to a personal code, which is a modified version of the Code of Heaven. The basic precepts are:

1. Beauty is the highest principle.
   
2. Anachronism is a form of beauty.
   
3. Not a game!
   

BONDS
Some of the things known to be important to Dyne are her Chancel (Locus Caledon) and the tower that sits on her Realm of Shadows Lying.

DESIGN
Dyne's sigil is composed of the flower of progress (gray with white-fringed petals) and the flower of nascent creativity (plywood leaves, stem, and petals) twined around a partially rezzed brass gear.

Depends on the edition. 3rd edition made everything much more consistent; all scores are (for human and similar scale of critter) ranked 1-20, with 3-18 being the normal range.


In any case, I shall instead describe myself in the terms of the lesser-known but excellent roleplaying game Over the Edge, as the shadowy conspiracy and high weirdness of the setting is a natural fit. Plus, the character stats are simpler.

Aliasi Stonebender

Concept: Maker of Stuff

Traits: Builder/Scripter (4 dice) (Sign: Often slow to respond, or apparently AFK)
Cthulhu's Red-headed Step-child (3 dice) (Sign: Trails improbable phenomona in her wake)
Knower of Things(3 dice) (Sign: Pouts trivia and tangential thoughts related to the main conversation in obscure ways)

Flaw: Wildly Emotional (Sign: Can go from happy to RAGE ELEMENTAL and back faster than it takes to brew coffee)

That is VERRY Sweet, Noel <3 <3 But those stats only come into effect when I drink from my Mystical Goblet of Endless Chardonnay + 5.

The antidote to which, of course, is the High Priest's Potion of Endless Advil +6.
