Pappahotep's DT&T character record

[pappahotep]

I've been fairly dissatisfied with most of the character records available for T&T; few of them provide enough space for spells, equipment, feats, and all the other assorted info one needs.  So I decided to create my own, and I've included a link to the pdf below:

sabercathost.com/1kvC/DT&T_character_folio_(2_pg).pdf

If you prefer not to use sabercat, you can also download it for free at RPGNow:
www.rpgnow.com/browse/pub/4317/Hopeful-Monster-Creations

There are two pages meant to be printed on both sides of a single sheet of paper, which is then folded in half to create a 5.5" x 8.5" character booklet.

The link doesn't work for my puny laptop. When I drop the /DT&T_character_folio, etc, I'm able to reach it.

Warning. It's one of those "Pay Now or wait 60 seconds for a faster download" sites, so be sure to check for malware and add-ons.

Thank you, Papahotep! This gives us a great utility sheet AND logbook. It's easy to use the Notes section for tracking paragraph numbers in Agent of Death (paras, 1, 15, 118, 3, 12 dead; paras 1, 9 dead; para - Oops! Dead.) yet useful for real face-to-face or screen-to-screen gaming. I may have found my perfect character sheet, and I think I'm in love again.

[pappahotep]

Wow, I'm so glad you liked it, mormonyoyoman, thanks for the feedback. I had lots of fun making it.

I agree, it is a very nice sheet. I would make a couple of minor changes, if I were customising it for my own use:

1. Put Wizardry at the bottom of the right-hand attributes column instead of Charisma. Since Speed and Wizardry are later additions to the attributes, being on the same line makes them easier to ignore if you are playing an earlier edition.
2. Add a range column to the Grimoire section. That's something that you'd be quite likely to need often, and it wouldn't take much space. You have wide borders on that page at present anyway.

But please don't take these as criticisms. I do think that it is a very usable sheet as it is.

Thanks very much for the feedback, these are excellent suggestions and easy to implement; I'll make the changes and put up the revised version.

If anyone wants to customise this sheet for their own use, I'm happy to provide the original Photoshop documents.  Just send me a message.

[pappahotep]

It was brought to my attention that the original files didn't have the fonts embedded, so you're looking at the default fonts instead of the cool fonts I used. My bad. I've created a new PDF with embedded fonts, and updated the link to the new PDF. Sorry about that, everyone.

I will probably have yet another update once I've incorporated mahrundl's suggestions.

This is a fantastic character sheet! I've been searching the Web for a decent dT&T character sheet, to no avail, but this one does exactly what I need it to. I'll be printing these up for my upcoming game. Thanks!

This is a beaut, @pappahotep.

[wereghost]

I don't know what the deal is, but now when I try to download the file, it just shows me a bunch of raw HTML in a box. Is there any chance that someone could get the PDF to me directly?

[ProfGremlin]

Are you right-clicking the link and downloading it directly or opening the link first? It's hosted on a free file server with a 30 second delay before the download button is presented so if you don't open the page first the results will be less than spectacular.

[wereghost]

I'm opening the link, waiting on the timer, clicking on the "I'm not a robot!" thing, the whole deal. Maybe the website just isn't getting along with all of my browser plugins or something. I'll try again when I'm home from work!

[ProfGremlin]

Fair enough, I know I tripped over the whole 'right-click download' thing so that's why I mentioned it. PappaHotep hasn't been logged in for a couple-three weeks so, if you like, PM me an address to email the file to and I'll be happy to pass it along.

[wereghost]

I did eventually get it to work (I had to turn off a bunch of stuff that I guess SaberCat doesn't like), but thank you for the kind offer!

This has been implemented as the "official" character sheet for my T&T games moving forward; just such a great design!

[mormonyoyoman]

One thing of which it convinces me: I shall never ever use SaberCat to transfer files.

Thanks, pappahotep. I love the broadsword with the runes on it!
