Jsk Rolling for Ability Scores

Standard Array
The standard array stats are six predetermined numbers that all players at the table are expected to use for their character's stats. These are 15, 14, 13, 12, 10, and 8.

Custom Array
If you do not want to use the standard array, you can let fate decide your stats. You roll 4d6 and remove the lowest die. For example, if you roll 4, 4, 3, and 2, you would remove the 2 and end up with a total of 11. You do this six times to create six stat scores.

Bad Luck Prevention
If you are using the custom array rules, sometimes fate can be unkind and your stats create an array that would greatly hinder your character, and the collective ability of your adventuring party. To help avoid this issue, the following additions are made when using a custom array;
 * You perform the custom array rules twice, and pick which set of six stats that you prefer.
 * Once you have picked a set of stats, you can choose to reduce the highest stat to increase your lowest stat by the same amount. For example, if your array is 18, 15, 15, 10, 8, and 7, you could choose to reduce the 18 to a 15 to increase the 7 to a 10.
