Summary
Ironically, this episode is 3x as long as how long it takes to generate a character in Pathfinder 2.0 with this method. Note this is only for NPC or filler characters, but it could be a quick basis for a PC as well. You'll need: d8 - Races d20 - Level d10 - Alignment d10 - Ennegram d10 - Ennegram subset I also give an example of a recent character I created with this method, a 6th level Rock Dwarf Druid with a Giant Bat (limited) as an animal companion and a reason to be in two worlds at the same time. Perhaps I'll expand more on this character when it is all said and done. If you found value in this episode, please leave a rating and a comment. I would appreciate the feedback and understand what exactly you're looking for in future episodes!
