Look at the stat's order. STR INT WIS. That's OD&D!
He's a 0 level infant normal men ;D

Not so sure ... my OD&D memory says Strength, Intelligence, Wisdom, Constitution, Dexterity, Charisma. They've switched the order for CON and DEX. :-(

He's got a "character symbol" in his character sheet. That's definitely old-school ;D

That is the order for AD&D 1st edition.

It’s also the order that was used on the TSR character sheets that were used internally as early as 1975. Dex was put fourth probably because it was the prime requisite of the fourth base class. Regards.

Ah, well we always prefered notebook paper or notecards for characters.
"Darned kids and their newfangled character sheets. Those were the days when notecards were Old School..." :-)

I was with it until I saw the AC:6. How is that possible in a creature that is not only not mobile, but also has a DEX of 3? Nope, nope. Even if you factor in the small size we are talking an AC:8 at BEST. And don't even get me started on the INT of 6! Sorry, I'm a complete stat geek. I actually aced college level Statistics by using D&D dice rolling conventions as a reference. But yes, the stats are arraged in the right order of OD&D. YIKES! I almost forgot to add the obvious joke: "So, is this a 4th Edition preview? They really ARE making it easier to get into." Doc
