3rd Edition Dungeons and Dragons Character Generator is an HTML/JavaScript Web page that allows the user to quickly and easily create new Dungeons and Dragons characters. The characters can be of any of the eleven classes, any of the playable races, and may start at any level from 1 to 220. Generation requires some simple input, after which the character is displayed on a basic character sheet. It allows you to select your starting stats, add ability points, and pick skills, equipment, feats, and spells. It runs on most operating systems with most modern browsers.

Recent commentsRe: Divine Grace
You're correct about the Divine Grace feature. I will add this
to the next release.
As for alignment checking, I will make a small change. The
generator will warn about alignment restrictions, but not
enforce them.
I hope to have the next version out in the first quarter of
2008, work permitting. If you have any further suggestions
or bug reports, please e-mail me. I don't often check the
comments section here.
Thank you,
Jesse
Divine Grace
the added bonus to saves from the paladin's divine grace isn't added. Also with the addition of some variant classes, for example a chaotic good "Freedom" paladin, might be easier to not have the alignment restrictions. I know I sometimes change things up and allow things that aren't in the rules, so maybe an override mode where those restrictions aren't there would be useful.
Pre-created characters
For the next release, I would like to include pre-created (1st level) characters. The user would be able to select pre-made characters from a list, guided by a brief description. For example, "Grog - Half-Orc Barbarian, strong, dumb and ugly."
So, I am sending out a call for you, the users, to make up some basic, first level characters. Save them in the Generator and e-mail the Save Character text to me. I'll try to include them in the next release. You'll become immortal and it'll aid newbies in creating characters quickly.
Do not forget to include a name, a small description and your name (if you want credit).
Internet Explorer bug fixed
The bug causing the character to
not display in IE has been corrected as
of version 2.6.
Please download and test. Your comments
are welcome.
Please help finding bug.
I've been receiving bug reports from people using
Internet Explorer (version 6) since the release of the
Character Generator 2.4
The bug seems to cause character sheets to not display properly and to make character leveling (after initial creation) impossible.
These bugs seem to only appear in Internet Explorer.
Other web browsers, such as Opera, Firefox and Mozilla
continue to functin normally. So far I have been unable to
re-produce the IE bug(s). If anyone out there has a copy
of IE 6.0, would you please try to get a Java Script error and
e-mail it to me at slicer69 at hotmail.com? Thank you.
