DEX 9Hey, we've got some of Gary's killer dungeons covered. The rogues disable the traps or spring them as they die, then the abundance of clerics rez the dead rogues and we push on. And while the monsters batter on us armored healers, the rogues can sneak attack 'em all into oblivion.

Your DM allowed you to toss them out? Man my original DM was a stickler for this - you rolled them in order in front of him and and had to keep them.

Aww man...I got brutalized. 17 in Charisma too - how friggen often do your roll a 17 or 18 in Charisma?, I could have been a Paladin if the rest of my stats did not suck. Crap - I don't even know what I should take. I think I have to take cleric as I don't have the minimum stats to be a fighter, thief or magic-user.
Hmm well the character has some interesting role playing aspects. I'm weak, clumsy and not to bright but I'm really charismatic. I could be some kind of dim fanatic that tries to sway people to his simple minded world view through force of personality.
OK I talked to my DM and he says that I can work on converting people in town If I live through the adventure he plans to run, its called Tomb of Horrors...

I can't remember the old ability order, it's just so long ago now. 25-30 years.
You got the order wrong! *grin*
Its burned in my head - I have to make a conscious effort to do it in 3E order. If I'm not really thinking about it I write it down in 1st edition order.

I lpayed a lot of other games between AD&D and 3.5, and none of them was D&D, so I guess it was easier for me to forget.

Sorry friend - You don't qualify for Paladin, you must have a minimum Wisdom of 13.
Minimium Stat requirements for Paladins are
Str 12
Int 9
Wis 13 (you get a 10% bonus to XP if you have 15)
Dex - (no minimum)
Con 9
Chr 17
With my old stickler DM I never once saw a Paladin, no player ever managed to actually roll one up. We used to make fighters that wished they where Paladins just 'cause we wanted to play Paladins.
I didn't even know it the order was different in 1E (I hope I've got this right, then!)

Ouch. I don't think it matters what class I pick (Cleric I guess), he/she's not going to last long enough to worry about!
Guess it'll be a toos-up whether he/she gets killed by the monsters or irate party members fed up with the stupid and abrasive physical incompetant!

It took me over five years to get the order changed in my head. And I still find myself wanting to do INT second at times.

A healthy but unathletic cleric.
In an attempt to get passable stats, assuming my last character dies in the first five minutes, I will now try to tap the only area in which my dice rolls do not suck; massed D6 rolling! So I will dig out my wargames D6 of many colurs and assign the following colours as stats and roll them all at once!
Str Red
Int Purple
Wis Green
Dex Blue
Con Yellow
Cha Black

Hmm...I guess that makes me a Cleric? With low hitpoints? Okay, I'll memorize Cure Light Wounds, then I'm off to buy some chainmail, a shield, and a mace, of course!

For those who use online dice-rollers, could you clarify something for me?
How do you confirm that the rolls are valid, and the player hasn't simply kept hammering the keys until he got the result he wanted?Is there some method of registering what rolls have been made?
Do you have to register an account?
It's just that it would really ease those situations when the scout goes off alone; I can adjudicate it between sessions without holding everyone up at the table.

Thanks Mr. Gygax. You've touched so many lives. You will be missed.
I don't have my 1st Edition PH to hand here at work (shame!), but I recall that several of the ability tables had an entry like "Here or lower the character can only be a cleric." I guess these would apply to quite a few of the characters in this thread!

It seemed that TheOcho was born sickly. His father, Algere, wanted to send the scrawny runt off to the orphanage to done with him. However his mother, Guenifer, who dotted on him constantly threatened to leave Algere and take all the kids with her. Begrudgingly he agreed to let him stay as long as he kept out of everyone's way. During his early years TheOcho was bullied and picked on by every other kid in the city, even his siblings. Never a smart one, maybe from to many beatings by his father, he learned to roll with the punches and kicks to minimize the damage. Laying on the ground taking the punishment until the other kids were bored. Because of his fathers hatred for him he would spend many nights alone in the streets. During the day he would head to the market and palm what little food he could get away with. For many years his life dragged on like this. Until one night, while sleeping under some stairs, he was woken by the sound of glass breaking. As he climbed out from under the stairs he saw someone dressed in red leather and some kind of scary mask coming out of the building holding some kind of golden weapon. The thing saw him and before TheOcho could blink was upon him. Everything went black. When he awoke he was laying in the most plush bed he had ever seen. A tray of food piled so high with delicacies and a chilled pitcher of wine. Never having seen so much food at one time he grabbed handfuls of it shoving it into his mouth. Taking gulps of wine to wash it all down. When he couldn't eat anymore he took a better look at his surroundings. The room he was in was expensively furnished. Red curtains were drawn blocking the view out. Seeing a flash of red from the corner of his eye he turned to see a handsome man dressed in the same red leather. The man smiled but it never touch his eyes. They were an ice blue like TheOcho had never seen. It sent a chill down his spine which he would always remember. After a brief silence the man, who never did give his true name, gave TheOcho two options. He could train and then devote his entire life to him and his organization or be put back in the streets to live in the sewers again. There was no hesitation in his answer. He would do whatever it takes to become a member of the Red Mantis.
I know it's a tribute to the originals, which I never played, but I had to give props to Paizo's setting.
sigh!! i used to roll dozens of sets of stats just to get a set i was happy with!! but doing it properly you get
S: 11
I: 8
w: 7
D: 9
C: 9
C: 10
So a fighter for me!
IIRC (please say i do) couldn't you swap out points on a 2 for 1 basis, i.e take 2 off one stat and add 1 to another?
So this becomes
S: 14
I: 6
W: 7
D: 9
C: 9
C: 6
a stupid, ugly fighter who uses his strength to help the people.
