Zero to ready-to-play

Two short, visual lessons — build a hero, then learn how a fight actually works.

1

Build a hero in 5 steps

  1. Step 1
    Pick a class

    It decides how you fight and what you're great at.

  2. Step 2
    Set six abilities

    Your raw talent. Use the standard array — no dice needed.

  3. Step 3
    Background & skills

    Where you came from, and what you're good at.

  4. Step 4
    Health & armor

    How tough you are — the app computes HP and AC for you.

  5. Step 5
    Add flavor

    A name, a personality, and a backstory make it yours.

How combat works

Initiative — who goes first

At the start of a fight, everyone rolls a d20 and adds their Dexterity modifier. Highest goes first, then down the line — then it loops back to the top for the next round.

Armor Class — did it hit?

To hit, your attack roll (d20 + bonus) has to meet or beat the target's Armor Class. Equal counts as a hit.

Opportunity attacks — don't turn your back

If you move out of an enemy's reach, they get one free swing at you. Sometimes it's worth it — sometimes it's smarter to step carefully.
