Well… that was interesting: D&D 5E Solo Game 2 – Session 0 Part 1 – Character Creation – The Oracle Character Generator

I think everybody’s weird. We should all celebrate our individuality and not be embarrassed or ashamed of it.

Session 0 Part 1 – Character Creation – The Oracle Character Generator

I’m thrilled to share that my solo D&D sessions will now be available in video form! Moving forward, you can watch the adventures unfold on my YouTube channel The Old Bard’s Den!. The blog posts will still provide all relevant links to the resources used and showcase additional artifacts created for the solo games. I believe this format will be easier to follow without the need to read tons of information. Dive into the latest video and explore the magic of solo role-playing in a new, immersive way!


Advice to the reader

In order to interpret the structure of my gaming session posts effectively, it is strongly suggested that you peruse A Readers Guide to Play Sessions on The Old Bard, if you haven’t already.

To better grasp what I mean when I bring up Fate questions, you might find it useful to keep the Mythic Fate Chart accessible, potentially in a new window or tab in your browser.


In our first video of the D&D 5E Solo Game 2 series, we delve into the character creation process. Using The Oracle Character Generator by Nord Games, we craft the concept of our first character. This powerful tool streamlines character generation, sparking creativity and providing detailed backgrounds. Check out the video to see how we use The Oracle Character Generator to bring our new adventurer to life!

Bookkeeping

As with my previous Solo Game Posts, this section will still contain information on all the bookkeeping I keep even though we’re moving to a video format for the series.

So we’ve established the seeds of our character, and have updated our Onenote file with those character details. In the next video we’ll continue creating our character in a Character Sheet on D&D Beyond.

Be sure to like the video, share it with fellow adventurers, and subscribe to The Old Bard’s Den YouTube Channel to stay updated with all our exciting content. Your support helps us continue bringing you epic solo RPG adventures and valuable resources. Happy adventuring!
