Starting Character Wealth by Level

For our tabletop Pathfinder game we use a few house rules

1. Writing a character background before the game session starts gives new characters a bonus. Each campaign will differ.

2. PCs can choose a single flaw at character creation, if you want a second flaw then roll 1d12.

Or choose one of the wonderful double flaws or even a dreaded triple flaw!

3. Pathfinder is the default set of rules.

4. Experience Points to level up is 1,000 per character level.

5. Healing starts at zero for unconscious characters (if you're at -3 and a cleric heals you for 2, you're now at 2 hit points).

6. Reincarnation does not cause a level loss.

7. Weapons made of Star Metal count as Adamantine, Silver and Cold Iron for bypassing DR.
