===Initiative Tiebreakers===
It is inevitable that eventually two creatures will get a tie on their D20 + initiative modifier roll. Resolve ties as follows:
The creature with the highest initiative modifier goes first.  Since this means they have the same initiative number, their modifier is recorded as a decimal, to indicate the tiebreaker.
If they both have the same initiative modifier, then the creature with the highest Dexterity score goes first. This is recorded as their initiative roll with their Dexterity score as a decimal behind it.
If they both have the same initiative modifier and the same Dexterity score, then the one with the higher Intelligence score goes first. This is recorded as a decimal with the Int score.
If they are STILL tied, then they roll a D6 until one of them gets a higher number than the other one. This usually only takes a roll or two.  It is recorded as their initiative score with the wining d6 roll as a decimal.
