While I may have been writing on how to create a D&D character for beginners, I’m sure there’s a number of people who are still a bit overwhelmed with character creation. If you’re one of them, I don’t blame you at all. It really is a lot of information to take in at once, and I know it can get quite confusing. It was the same way with me when I first started.

So to help alleviate the pain of creating a D&D character, I thought I’d share a few free character generators!

First, a couple that will run right in your web browser are:

• Javascript D&D 3.5 Character Generator (Lite Version also available)
  
• 3.5 D&D Character Generator

Just make sure you have Javascript enabled for whichever one you use, otherwise it won’t work.

Then there’s the fairly popular, but moderately complex, open-source, and award-winning character generator:

• PCGen

Of course, these generators can help both beginners and veterans alike. It’ll make the process a bit more easy for the beginner, while the veteran can fly through character creation and be ready to play in relatively quick order. They can also make management of your character a tad easier as well, particularly PCGen, as you can go back and edit your character whenever you level up.

While these character generators are about the only ones that come to mind, I’m sure there are others. If you have a favorite character generator that’s not one of the above, please share it in a comment!
