This is my replacement for the default character sheet.



I started this project in high school, a little around 6 years ago, when I took a good look at the standard D&D 3.5e sheet and became very disappointed in the general layout. Everything is way too spaced out and not organised well, causing a lot of important elements to either or feel like not enough, or not work at all, especially the magic portion which is almost completely unusable. This drove me to reinvent the standard sheet to a sleeker, more efficient, more updated “default” sheet for anyone to be able to pick up and use on a single piece of paper, and hopefully I have accomplished just that.



However, there are still some issues that we need to discuss, so here we go:



1. Why do skills and special abilities have 3 check boxes by them?

The check boxes are corresponded to each class that you have. This is so you can look at your abilities and know which class they came from, so you don’t have to wonder why you are a Barbarian trained in Use Magic Device.

2. Spells are too prominent on the first page.

They do take up a good chunk (about ¼) of the page, true. One of the main goals with this sheet was to place magic on the front, so that it would be as easy as using your skills. Not only that, but to make a magic section that is actually usable. This might seem like it hinders martial characters, but this spot is a giant list, and can be used for anything, like explanations for special abilities and the like, so I kept it.

3. There are not quite enough low level spell slots.

The amount of lines for spellcasters is something that I had to change again and again, and I know that I still don’t have it perfect. This is something I will need to patch. Right now it is based on a wizard, assuming he has not learned any spells outside of level advancement, and assuming he has always learned the highest level spell possible inside of level advancement.

4. Can you add some blank skill slots?

Up until now, I had no idea that there were variant rules that added skills(I play vanilla with a few house rules.) As of right now, the sheet does not support any variant rules, and is kept strictly for vanilla use.

5. is it necessary for the sheet to have 5 separate attack entires?

I would have to say yes. I wanted to make sure that I didn’t take anything out of the original sheet, but only to add to it. The original sheet had five attacks, so I made that my minimum

6. There is a lack of feat slots. A regular human fighter would be hard pressed to fill in their feats past level 14.

If a fighter is going past level 14, he/she will have ample space in their Special Abilities box, and I don't want to make a sheet that specifically favors only one class.

7. The spell list is effective as a spells-prepared/spells-known tool, but not an effective spellbook.

True. However, if I were to add a spellbook, then this page would become more than one page long, and I want to keep it as a standard definitive sheet. The magic section is effective as a list for spells and to track prepared spells. My main goal was to have a magic section that was actually usable. I may

8. You should rearrange the magic items in your inventory to be from head to toe, instead of alphabetical order.

Once again, this is something I’ve played with before, and I still don’t know about.

9. Why does speed have a default +30 next to it? Not all creatures have a default speed of 30.



Unless you are a special case, your speed is 30, and the equation is to help you remember what that special case is, just like how you’re AC is 10, unless you modify it. Also, the idea that Initiative gets an equation and speed doesn’t really irritates me, but that’s my thing. xD



10. Can you make it form-fillable?

When I patch it, yes.
