First of all, Hello.

I am very very very very new to D&D.

I want to create a character from a monster race. I have read the books but I can't understand them. I will use Drow elf as an example

the questions are:

1)what is the level adjustment and how do I use it?

2)what are those?

enter image description here

3)how to add the proper level adjustment to a race that I have created?


Well I hope it doesn't sound complicated. Thanks for your time

    Can you clean up this question to be a single question? It's very hard to tell what specific problem you're having here. Start by articulating your specific intention and what work you've completed so far. – Brian Ballsun-Stanton Jan 01 '15 at 04:29
  • When you say "race you have created" do you mean "apply the drow level adjustment to a character?" – Brian Ballsun-Stanton Jan 01 '15 at 05:02
  • @BrianBallsun-Stanton Pretty sure, being new to D&D, the latter is meant but the language isn't there yet. This nonetheless appears answerable in its current form. (Although I dread explaining D&D 3.5's mad concoction of character levels, Hit Dice, LA, and ECL to a newcomer.) – Hey I Can Chan Jan 01 '15 at 07:08
  • This should really be closed as "too broad". The very first reason fits perfectly: "if your question could be answered by an entire book". There's even more than one. As a new player, asking for monster characters is like asking for definite integrals when you just attended a class for multiplication and addition of numbers below 10. You cannot even understand this "whole books" without the foundation. – nvoigt Jan 01 '15 at 11:30
  • I feel like the first two questions are definitely answerable (the third is someting I would not ask as a new player, and it's very broad and requires a detailed dissertation on how the currently existing LAs were assigned, which also makes it opinion based. I think that's better suited to our chat). An answer to the 1st question is already here and here so it'd be a duplicate. The 2nd question seems to be ok. – Zachiel Jan 01 '15 at 12:59

    VTCing until which sub-question this is about is sorted out. Otherwise, answers to one or some of these questions might be wasted once it's fixed. – SevenSidedDie Jan 01 '15 at 20:40
  • What does the OP not understand exactly? Level Adjustment? That is pretty cut and dry. – Ruut Jan 03 '15 at 00:33

    @Ruut this has already been explained in the questions I linked in a previous comment (where I also explain which are the multiple closing reasons). I'd edit the question to have only question number 2 here but I fear the querent could lose track of where to find the replies to his ither questions. – Zachiel Jan 03 '15 at 14:31
