Goodman Games

I want to ease my D&D group into DCC.

I've already started homebrewing in bits of the DCC magic system to my 5e game (spell checks, manifestations, corruptions), and its been really fun.

The idea of the 0-level funnel doesn't appeal to my players, So I'm looking at starting them at level 1.

Any tips on character creation for level 1's? Things to avoid?
I'd rather have the group roll their own characters than just randomly generating them.

Lankhmar does not use zero level characters or the Funnel. You could introduce them via the Lankhmar Box Set and go from there.

Does that Lankhmar box set include rules for setting up lvl 1's? or does it merely reference the core rules?

I would have to look again at the specifics, but generally everything ties back to the core book.
I do know that it discusses how to create your level 1 character to be on par with a PC that reached level 1 via a Funnel.
