0 Character Data Object Editor GUI Window
The Character Data Object is used to represent characters, both player
and non player. The player characters are controlled by the
corresponding player whose goal is to survive and accumulate treasure,
gold, and experience points. As the player's character's experience
point total increases, the character advances in levels, which means
more hit points, increased access to spells (magic users) and so on.
Non player characters are the additional people in the environment and
are "played" by the game master.
Sections:
<New Character Roll Dialog>
<Character Data Object Editor GUI Window Itself>
1 New Character Roll Dialog
When the Character Data Object Editor GUI Window is opened from the
[New] menu item on the [File] menu or via the [Make or Edit Character]
button on the Main GUI Window, a New Character Roll Dialog, shown
below. This dialog can be used to generate the attribute statistics
for a new character. This dialog box has entries to select the
attribute dice, the initial hit dice, and the maximum number of hit
dice. There is a button to re-roll the attribute statistics. By
default the attribute dice are 3d6, the initial hit dice are 1d6 and
