Prettiest Character Sheet

Skywalker · Post by **Skywalker** » Tue Apr 22, 2008 7:56 pm

I have a few C&C PC sheets from the net. Some have great utility and some have great nostalgic flavour. However, I am looking for a one with the best visual appeal. Any suggestions?

That's entirely subjective. What do your eyes like?

True. I guess I am looking for something that is willing to sacrifice utility for some visual flares. Something that looked like it was on parchment or used script or other font would be cool.

I use the mad irishman sheets, but I print them onto paper that looks parchment or papyrus like. The paper is actually a light Tan color, and looks like it has bits and pieces of impurities in it. It works real well and makes the paper look old.

Patrick Murphy (aka Mad Irishman) definitely makes the purtiest sheets out there. I don't use them, because my C&C game is heavily houseruled and my own sheet work better for my purposes, BUT I'd be sure to use them for a straight-up C&C game.

I use the ones that came in R1, but have since modified it a little by adding some notebook paper as the games to tend to bend outside the C&C default rules, even when I'm not the CK.

Wulfgarn does make some really nice sheets. The custom sheets he did for my game have all the pertinent data. Plus they look very artistic. I'll see if I can link the thread where he posted the roughs for me to look at.

They do look nice. Any chance of a generic C&C one?

You got the attribute order all wrong.

Another vote for The Mad Irishman.

I will make a generic C&C one - I have been mostly playing around with differing styles that make sense and play testing them

Can you give me a list of things you'd like to see on the sheet?

Serleran - its funny you say that when I was playing back in the late 70's I wanted to put them in alphabetic order.

Nice. My immediate intentions are:

1. I am planning on running a classic AD&D module campaign set in the world of Castle Zagyg.

2. I am considering running the original DL Saga.

3. I am also considering running a number of C&C one off's for conventions.

I plan to use C&C unadulterated with one exception: that Primes add +6 to the attribute check and base DCs are set at 18.

Actually, having attributes with two sets of modifiers after the score would be cool for:

1. Attribute Modifier

2. Attribute Check Modifier (includes level, prime and attribute mod).

Perhaps having a '/' for the second set so that you can put in a "with/ without level" mod would be excellent.
