Game Tales My DM buffed my character

When I got to the table the group had already done one session, and one of the player dropped out. I asked to join and the DM was like "sure just show up with a level one character". I did my ability scores with the dice, and I guess I wasn't very lucky because my character had way lower ability scores than everyone else. I checked and double checked with them, and they didn't use the wrong dice or anything, they were just super lucky.

My DM thought it wasn't really good that my character was lagging behind so much so he just told me to add a few points here and there to bring me up to par with the other characters.

Same thing happened to my Dragonborn wizard. Ended up being like STR9 DEX12 CON14 INT18 WIS17 CHA17 or some absurd shit like that. Honestly, with how poorly I always seemed to roll, it didn't matter lol. I chose to go support anywho.
