Guide til dnd character creation
Are you ready to embark on an epic adventure in Dungeons & Dragons 5e? Creating your character is the first step, but it can feel overwhelming for new players. Here we cover the key concepts.
Ability scores
Your character's core attributes are the six ability scores: Strength, Dexterity, Constitution, Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma. They affect how well your character performs in combat and on all the checks you roll with your d20.
Hit points
Hit points (HP) represent how much damage your character can withstand. When you take damage, your hit points decrease. When they reach 0, your character falls unconscious and must make death saving throws until they are stabilized or healed.
Armor Class
Armor Class (AC) determines how difficult your character is to hit. The higher your AC, the harder it is for enemies to hit you.
Feats
Feats are special abilities that give your character extra benefits and make them unique. They let you tailor your character to your preferred playstyle.
Skills
Skills show how proficient your character is at different things, such as Athletics, Perception and Stealth. They are used when you try to overcome a challenge in the game.

You'll find a full guide to races/species, classes, backgrounds and rules in the Player's Handbook. Explore our D&D books.
