For today’s character creation challenge I am returning to Beyond the Wall and other adventures. I have a real fondness for bards so I have chosen the Local Performer playbook for this character. I am making the character female and giving her the name of Juliet Nightingale which sounds the kind of name a local performer should have. Right, lets get her rolled up.

Her Charisma (Cha) starts at 12, all other stats begin at 8. She gets +1 Int from the character to her left which would be the previous character I created, the Self Taught Mage.

1. What did your parents do in the village. What did you learn from them? d12 roll = 9.
   Your mother kept the old stories. Your head is filled with them. +2 Int, +1 Cha, +1 Wis, Skill Folklore
2. How did you distinguish yourself as a child? d8 roll = 2.
   There wasn’t a game you could not win. +2 Dex, +1 Int
3. The other player characters were your best friends. Who else in the village befriended you when you were growing up? d8 roll = 7
   The old widow needed help around the house. +1 Str, +1 Int, +1 Cha.
4. You become a level 1 rogue. You gain the class abilities Fortune Favors & Highly Skilled as well as the skill Singing.
5. Whose stories held your attention the most? d6 roll = 4
   The eldest sat with you outside of his house and told you true tales. +2 Int, +1 Cha. Skill Ancient History.
6. What gets the best applause from the audience? d6 roll = 2
   Tricks and distractions. +2 Dex. Skill Slight of Hand.
7. What happened to you that night at the inn? d6 roll = 3
   Two spies from Northern conquers paid for room and board. You were able to hear their plans and alert your neighbors. +2 Dex. Skill Stealth. (+1 dex to player to the right of you).
8. What was the best tip you ever got? d6 roll = 2.
   The eternal affection of the innkeeper. +2 Wis. Free room and board.
