The character information throughout this presentation assumes maximum rolls.

If you are rolling this type character for play in your own game, the following procedure is recommended.

Mark down the minimum ability scores to qualify for all included classes. Roll the standard three six-sided dice (3d6) once for each ability score and if the rolled score is higher than the minimum, replace the minimum with the rolled score. If the DM is feeling especially nice you may make the roll for each ability score using four six sided dice and dropping the lowest of the four to obtain the 3d6 possible ability score.

Strength: 15 (monk; bard)

Intelligence: 15 (illusionist)

Wisdom: 15 (monk; bard)
