  1. For your sheet, you have 3 options:

    • D&D Beyond: Which is the easiest if you're a beginner. If you choose this, please go to your folder in the Google Drive and put a link to your sheet in the red part in your tracking sheet. P.S. there's a thread for some tips on how to use it in 💬 getting-started channel
    • Dicecloud: Same as Beyond, please go to your folder in the google drive and put a link to your sheet in the red part in your tracking sheet.
    • G-sheet: In your Google Drive folder, there is a blank Gsheet that you can copy and rename it to your character's name. (you don't need to use this if you're using Beyond or Dicecloud)

  2. Post your character in the 💬 creation-log channel, using the pinned post for a template. Use this exact template 💬 Creation Log Template

    P.S. For races with multiple versions from different sourcebooks, you must list the source you are choosing.

  3. Once your character is ✅ Staff Approved, you receive the Player role, you are ready to play!

    P.S. Players can take either max gold from what their starting class gives them or starting equipment.
