2025 Character Creation Challenge Day 10
You can read more about the challenge here and here.
Time to roll up some clerics! Since there are no elven, dwarven, nor hobbitish clerics in the original Dungeons & Dragons I have decided to create ten clerics instead of five like I am doing for other combinations.
Clerics can roll for magic weapons and staves. Both of those are included in longer d100 tables that mostly have items. To avoid re-rolling, and re-rolling, and re-rolling, I have extracted items they are eligible to and gave them the exact same probabilities as in the table they came from.
For example, weapons fit nicely to d20:
| d20 | Weapon |
|---|---|
| 1–10 | Mace +2 |
| 11–15 | War Hammer +1 |
| 16–19 | War Hammer +2 |
| 20 | War Hammer +3, 6'' Throwing Range with Return |
Staves were a bit more dificult. They cover a range of 27 percent. If one plays online they can use digital die roller, but in case you want it offline I translated it to d100 and d1000 as well:
| d27 | d100 | d1000 | Staff |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–10 | 1–38 | 1–371 | Staff of Healing |
| 11–15 | 39–56 | 372–556 | Staff of Commanding |
| 16–20 | 57–74 | 557–741 | Snake Staff |
| 21–25 | 75–92 | 742–926 | Staff of Striking |
| 26–27 | 93–100 | 927–1000 | Staff of Withering |
With that out of they way let's start rolling some Vicars!
