The Dark Heresy Character Generator guides you through each of the steps outlined in Dark Heresy character creation, allowing you to choose or randomly select nearly all aspects of your character. This allows for a finely-tuned character that still allows for a great deal of chance. The generator also presents the mechanical effects of each selection in an at-a-glance format, including divinations and unique class effects (e.g. Built for Purpose trait from Forge Worlds or the Sanctioning side-effects). The additional homeworlds and classes from the Inquisitor's Handbook are also included in this generator.
When you are finished, you can save your character to the online database for later viewing and sharing with others, in a variety of formats - standard sheet, story view, printer-friendly plaintext and PDF.
Remember! The DH chargen is intended to provide a base for your character. The generator takes a great deal into account, but not everything; for example, divinations and side effects that grant mutations are noted on your finished charsheet, but not actually selected or calculated. After your character is generated, he or she is not complete until you spend your experience points and perform additional rolls for certain special cases (e.g. mutations) that may be required. Please review your sheet in detail and double-check for errors, inconsistencies or additional rolls. If the results from the character generator conflict with the rulebooks in any way, the rulebooks are, obviously, overriding.
Also note: Javascript is required to use the Dark Heresy Character Generator.
This is the original incarnation of the Dark Heresy character generator. A more literal generator, it performs all rolls for you and displays the results. It does not include Inquisitor's Handbook homeworlds, classes, etc., nor does it perform the math that the character builder performs. This generator is ideal for DMs looking to quickly calculate a few random NPCs, and players that want to provide a charsheet to their DM for online gaming with totally pre-rolled stats (since there is no user input or individual rerolls).
To operate, select your parameters and click Create Character when you are ready. (To choose a specific class, you must first choose a homeworld.) "Detailed" family rolls jobs and names for your parents and siblings; "Detailed (25% Chance Death)" means there's a one in four chance a given family member has died.
Once you have rolled your character, click Save This Character to add it to the database for later viewing and linking to other players (or DMs that want to ensure the system has rolled all the values). Characters are cleaned after 14 days. The Quick Generator does not currently save characters to the database.
Note: Starting traits and special attributes (Mechanicus Implants, your divination, etc.) are not yet factored into the starting scores. The starting scores are raw roll values only.
