Statistics for the Witherhelm campaign


Homebrew Homunculous asked a question on Reddit about how many I have been running a campaign for a year now and have played 10 sessions. I send out the experience totals in an email after each session so I know how much experience was gained each session. Here are some statistics:


XP
Notes
Deaths
1,970
Double session
4
1,395
1
1,435

860

This XP was the reward of fighting in a mass combat battle, not the result of normal D&D play
0
15,014
Tower of the Stargazer: party got the large horde of treasure

14,670
The Party got lucky with the deck of many things
0
75
0
Total XP
41,435
Total Deaths
10
Average XP
4143.5

To make some more sense of these numbers, there are 8 players in the campaign and some play more regularly than others. It is much harder for me to calculate the average XP per player per session because of this but it works out to be about 600 XP or so.  I do use 1 GP = 1 XP and monsters give experience per the table in the Greyhawk supplement.

You might also notice that my game is fairly deadly with on average 1 death per session. This means that although I have given out a hefty amount of XP the game is still only starting to get  mid level D&D since replacement characters all start at level 1. As you can see from the roster below the highest level PC after all this XP is only level 4 and I still have quite a few first level characters.

Current Roster:
Belree the Antiquarian: 1st level elf
Herbert the half-hearted: 2nd level halfling
Larchmont: 3rd level paladin
Lyster: 3th level magic-user
Pyker: 2nd level fighting-man
Sven: 1st level male bikini babe (from black pudding)
Theodora: 1st level magic-user
Zander Scuttletoes: 4th level halfing thief

Roll of the Dead (in order of death):
Fulray the 9th the fighting-man - shot by a bunch of arrows
Hodor the cleric - spear through the chest
Barney the angry peasant - killed by the wraith
Valarakus the magic user -  shot in the back by arrows
Sonya fighting-(wo)man - killed by the wraith
Vern the dwarf - backstabbed by a thief
Rodoh the cleric - poison chest
Vernando the dwarf - killed by goblins
Eladrana the elf - killed by goblins
Fod the halfling -  killed by a trapped chest
