Character Race
Only races described in the Living Greyhawk Gazetteer are allowed (Humans, Elves, Dwarves, Gnomes, Halflings, Half-Elves and Half-Orcs).
Nyrond's Population Demographics: Humans 79% (Oeridian culture with some Suel influence), Elf 9% (sylvan 90% and high elf 10%), Halfling 5% (Stouts or Lightfoots), Dwarf 3% (Hill), Gnome 2% (Forest or Stone), Half-Elf 1%, Half-Orc 1% - any other option must be approved by the GM.
Characters should come from Nyrond unless there is a compelling story reason why not.
Ability Scores
27 point buy. Please be aware that no score may increase above 20 during the course of play.
Alignment
There are few, if any, game mechanic effects based on alignment. I prefer player's to choose an alignment because I will use it sometimes to award inspiration.
Character Options
All the options listed in the PHB are allowed. I will be adding more options from other sources as I review them.
Character Background - Haunted One
This background from Curse of Strahd (p 209-210) is appropriate for characters from Old Almor.
Character Background - Woodsman
This background from the Greyhawk Grognard is suitable for characters from the woodlands of Nyrond.
