Has anyone created an E6 character generator? I like the idea of the game but I never have pen/paper or a program on my computer that can input (and save) character information

Don't need a special one. Just make a character with an ordinary D&D char gen and then add feats as appropriate.

E6 doesn't differ from standard D&D until the PCs gain enough XP to reach 7th level; it's at that point that 7th level doesn't happen & E6 does. Until then, it's just a normal game.

Er Actually once you reach 6th, E6 starts. Because all the XP you get after the 6th level go toward paying cost for something and to purchase feats.

Where can I find the rules for E6 anyways?

Emphasis mine. I've never seen an E6 variant that alters the rules from standard D&D AT 6th level; it is always a discussion of what happens AFTER 6th level.

Funny how E6 becomes so popular around here now, as it's allready around for 3 years. :smallsmile:

In E6 you get your first Bonus Feat at 30,000 XP. 7th level would be at 31,000 XP.

Is there any good generators out there that uses more than just d20srd?

Also would feats like this (found it on a homebrew thread) work for e6? Maybe letting them scale a bit differently of course

I've been a fan ever since I found it, I've just only been posting about it here recently.

The thing about Scaling Feats in E6 is that since you're already getting far more than you normally would, it's like getting extra rewards twice over. The scaling feats are to fix the fact that in normal d20, there's really no benefit to having Point Blank Shot at level 18.
