I can’t even count how many hours I’ve spent searching for and looking at Character Forms, Character Profiles, Character Sheets, Character Worksheets … you name it, I searched for it and looked at it.
Nothing ever clicked. No character sheet ever seemed to have just enough details, without it being too much information. So I created my own.
I’m sharing it here with you to use in your own stories and development.
Let me know what additions and subtractions you’ll make in your own sheet.
