# Can roll up a new character of the desired class from scratch
dndR::class_block(class = "wizard", score_method = "4d6")
#> Total score low. Consider re-rolling?
#> At least one ability very low. Consider re-rolling?
#> ability score
#> 1 STR 13
#> 2 DEX 12
#> 3 CON 14
#> 4 INT 14
#> 5 WIS 8
#> 6 CHA 6
# Or you can roll separately and then create a character with that dataframe
my_scores <- ability_scores(method = "4d6")
dndR::class_block(class = "fighter", scores_rolled = TRUE, scores_df = my_scores)
