Character Sheet Formulas

The calculator uses standard D&D 5th Edition formulas to generate your character sheet:

Ability Modifiers

Modifier = (Score - 10) / 2 (rounded down)

Example: A Strength score of 16 gives a +3 modifier.

Hit Points

Hit Points = Class Hit Die + Constitution Modifier (first level)

Subsequent levels: Hit Points = Class Hit Die + Constitution Modifier (rounded down)

Armor Class

Armor Class = 10 + Dexterity Modifier + Armor Bonus

Initiative

Initiative = Dexterity Modifier

Saving Throws

Saving Throw = Ability Modifier + Proficiency Bonus (if proficient)

Skill Modifiers

Skill Modifier = Ability Modifier + Proficiency Bonus (if proficient)

These formulas are based on the official D&D 5th Edition System Reference Document (SRD).

Example Calculation

Let's walk through an example calculation for a level 1 Human Fighter:

Ability	Score	Modifier
Strength	16	+3
Dexterity	14	+2
Constitution	15	+2
Intelligence	10	+0
Wisdom	12	+1
Charisma	8	-1

Calculations:

Hit Points: 1d10 (Fighter hit die) + 2 (Constitution modifier) = 12
Armor Class: 10 + 2 (Dexterity modifier) + 0 (no armor) = 12
Initiative: +2 (Dexterity modifier)
Strength Saving Throw: +3 (Strength modifier) + 2 (proficiency bonus) = +5
Constitution Saving Throw: +2 (Constitution modifier) + 2 (proficiency bonus) = +4

This example demonstrates how the calculator applies the formulas to generate a complete character sheet.
