Workshop PCs

Creating this post separately as a convenience, with details relevant to the DM Workshop we spent the last week exploring.  I've rolled up five player characters for moving through the dungeon, with the most basic stats possible.  I want to emphasize the possibility of someone dying, so I don't want anyone to get attached to any of the characters as yet.

I could use a go-between, someone willing to accept a direct email from me at the beginning of each week.  This should be someone who has no plans to take part in the workshop.  Perhaps Justin?  The idea is that I will create the bare features of the dungeon first.  Then declare in a private email the actions of my characters.  THEN the designers can work out the details.  When those are settled, the middle-person will unveil my answers and whatever needs to be resolved can be.

I based the characters on my rolls, being sure to include a cleric, a mage and a fighter.  Rolling the cleric, I got a 4, which I had to put under dexterity.  I got very lucky with one set of rolls and so I made a monk.  Monks are my favorite class.  I got very lucky with hit points, rolling in the upper range for every mass-hit point roll.

I don't know if we're going to have trouble with editions being run.  Combat is going to come up and we will have to deal with that, but the way I have it worked out, it will work just fine if each of you will translate the stats into whatever system works for you.

I'm endeavoring to make this as system-neutral as possible, as the actual worldbuilding is more or less universal.  To some extent, however, I'll need to be able to use the magic I have according to the way the spells are described in the wiki.  If that creates problems, we can resolve them.  I don't care about these characters so I'll be fine with making concessions.

For the present, I will be keeping with my statement as written, but elaborate it some.  My dwarven fighter Draedar will fully load his light crossbow and hold it on the door.  My mage Bergthora will not cast, but she will place herself at the foot of the stairs, with dagger in scabbard but her hand on the handle.   Albertus the druid will ready a dagger.  There's no room in here for a sling, especially with her dexterity, so Eleana will hold her mace.  Caspar moves forward and closes the door; he steps back and we all watch to see if something comes out.
