Alright, I've decided on -4 to Intelligence to gain +2 to Strength. Now every ability is a thoroughly adequate 10-12.

I've used the better halfling saving throws from Expert, and bought equipment from the Basic book. Everything should be ready, so I've posted him to the thread.

Wow. That's an incredibly average set of stats.

[3d6] = 12 [3d6] = 11 [3d6] = 11 [3d6] = 16 [3d6] = 6 [3d6] = 13

Thief it is, then!
hp: [1d6] = 4

I don't have the B/X rulebook; is it OK if I use the LL equipment list? :)

I think I'll lower my Wis by 4 points to get +2 Dex...so I now have 7 Wis and 18 Dex

Oops, got the thief HD wrong. Rerolling:
[1d4] = 4

LL equipment lost is fine. There are some differences, like plate armor costing 90 gp in BX versus 450 in LL. But I don’t remember all of the differences and they may not matter.

I’d have to check, but I don’t think the point swap system can lower a score below 9.

You are right about the point swap––my mistake. Wis 9 and Dex 17, then.

[3d6] = 11 * 10 = 110 gp.
Leather armor (+15 lb., 6 gp)
Dagger (+1 lb., 3 gp)
Shortsword (+2 lb., 7 gp)
Longbow + quiver/20 arrows (+6 lb., 45 gp)
Backpack (+2 lb., 2 gp)
Lock (+1 lb., 20 gp)
12 iron spikes (+8 lb., 1 gp)
Total: 35 lb., -84 gp (leaving 26 = 2.6 lb.) so total weight is 37.6 lb.

[edit: some differences with B/X. I'll recalculate:
leather armor: gp 20, weight 200
dagger: gp 3, weight 10
shortsword: gp 7, weight 30
javelin: gp 1, weight 20
backpack: gp 5, weight ?
mirror: gp 5, weight ?
backpack: gp 5, weight ?
total: gp 110 minus 41 = 69, weight 260? + 69 = 329]
