Character Sheet

[Grimolde]

The search facility didn't help much.

Has anyone created a character sheet? The standard one is a little bland for my liking.

Thanks all

There are some on the wiki:

I like my character sheets bland, though, too much graphic design is distracting.

I agree

Thanks

I'm putting to bed the Age of Treason character sheet this week, I hope - it's the last item before the book is final proofed and is ready for print. There are some setting-specific quirks that mean I need a bespoke CS.

So my question is:

What is essential for the front page of a character sheet, and what can wait for the second page?

Obvious page 1:

Name, culture, homeland
Characteristics
Attributes
Hit locs chart
Common Skills
Combat styles
Advanced Skills (personally I like these split into languages, lores, magical skills and general "advanced skills", but interested in views)

Not a given but with an arguement to be front page - spell lists (eg do you like grimoire skills on front page with the associated spell list on the second page, or both together), cults/pacts (likewise, pact front page and div magic back page?); armour (assume other equipment always page 2); traits, gifts, quirks etc, long term magic and enchantments.

Probably for traditional reasons I like weapons on page 1, but is that necessary?

I'm sure there will be many different views, but I'm interested to know if anything stands out as a common requirement.

Many thanks in advance for any feedback

I think all skills and combat related stats, including all magic, cult & sorcery skills (gifts and compulsions if used) should be on one page, with the personality, descriptive and 'role-playing, non-combat' information on another page.

I'm not saying first/second or front/back because individual groups will differ in their focus - they can have whichever page they prefer as their prominent page.

+1
The first sheets we used had Combat Styles on one side and Weapon stats on the other. There was a lot of page flipping.
