Supervised by Andrew Hood; Moderated by Mohammad Taher Pilehvar

This project aims to simplify the largest hurdle of playing dungeons and dragons: creating a character. Usually, a players first time playing requires either hours of research, or the dedicated time of an experienced player to coach them how to create a character. The standard sheet has over 150 sections that need to be filled out, most requiring specific knowledge and maths to understand, with numerous edge cases.

This tool would supply a player a step by step process that would generate all the information required. The player would chose from a number of options with helpful information on each choice. Having the system work out the specifics.

This project would likely require a database, a deep understanding of 5th edition rules, and a degree of ingenuity
