+  * Download and print a {{ :character_creation_worksheet.pdf |character creation worksheet}}
   * Roll ability scores

+    * Roll all six stats in order (STR,CON,DEX,INT,WIS,CHA) 3D6 six times
-    * Choose a character from those six rolls
+    * Choose a character from those six sets of rolls

-    * **I tried to leave out Spaniards and Italians, but it just didn't feel complete without them, we may consider rolling the Danes, Norwegians and Icelanders (Swedes too) as a single Northman background**
-    * //I was hoping we could keep it around eight backgrounds. I'm  having trouble coming up with interesting fantasy tropes that relate to each heritage. For example, I totally took cues from Shakespeare with respect to the Danish people.  //
+^Roll^Heritage^Attribute^
-    * STR = Scots, CON = English& Norwegian, DEX = Welsh, INT = Danes, Frankish, WIS = Irish, Italians, CHA = Spanish ==> At this point, why not add one more for an even dozen so the six attributes are represented by two heritages?
