I'll be honest, I haven't played Pathfinder, aside from a little bit of the starter set adventure. But this whole fiasco brings me back here. Good on Paizo for leading the charge. Let's hope ORC becomes what everyone wished OGL could've been.


So, anything in the Community Use Package downloads is fair game (as long as the artwork isn't modified in any way), as long as credit is given? I see there's a character sheet already in there. If that's the case, perhaps I can just rearrange everything to fit that sheet instead.

Looks like, as long as I use the disclaimer/credit statement, don't modify the artwork, and don't charge for it, I should be able to use the character sheet in the CUP.


Thanks, Steve. I'm not exactly an artist, so I don't know what I would do to make the sheet look good. It would likely end up as just a white sheet with labeled fields. It might still be functional enough to be useful. Perhaps someone else might be willing to supply artwork to make it look a bit more polished?


That's a good point... So, I can't make my character sheet available, then, can I? Not without erasing the original BB Character Sheet artwork in the background, anyway.

Sorry, everyone... should've read the rules a bit more closely before I just threw the sheet up for download.


Chris, thanks for pointing that out. Being new to this community, I completely overlooked that. I'll get a community project up and post the notice in this thread. Does the notice need to be included on the character sheet itself?


I'm glad you guys are liking it!

I'm new to Pathfinder/D&D in general, so I'm still learning a lot about the game. Making the PDF actually helped clarify a few things for me (along with learning basic Javascript). But I won't be making anything for the core rules anytime soon.

I have a better idea of how to make the PDF, looking back at it. It could be created much more efficiently than I went through it, but the number of combinations in the core rules would really make it difficult to cover everything. Just doing what I did, but covering all core classes and races, would take a while to do.

I may end up doing that somewhere down the road. But, right now my main concern is getting a group of people together to play PF with me. Gotta set up a game session!

Okay, so here it is! Please keep in mind a couple things about this PDF:

1. I put hours and hours of hard work into it. But I know it's not perfect. If you have some suggestions, I'll see what I can do. But I'm also not a wiz at Javascript, so getting some things to work may not be easy.

2. The sheet was taken directly from the BB character sheet. It was designed only for the main character races and classes for the Beginner Box: Dwarf, Elf, Human for races, and Barbarian, Cleric, Fighter, Rogue, and Wizard for classes.

3. Barbarian has no equipment. I couldn't find any in the PDF for it, so I just left it out. Other classes list equipment. But things like a Fighter's weapon focus item, or a Cleric's deity or holy items are also not listed, since these are chosen during character creation. Just type them in.

4. Fields can usually be overridden. But not all of them can be. Things like modifiers are usually calculated for you. Hopefully they all work properly.

5. I used Acrobat Pro and Livecycle to create this PDF. If you have Adobe LiveCycle, you may be able to edit/customize the PDF to your heart's desire. Go for it!

If you test it out and find anything odd, please let me know and I will try to correct it in the PDF. You can notify me either via PM, or using comments on the Google Drive document.

Enjoy!


First post on here from a new player/GM! Just wanted to let you know I'm working on a form-fillable BB sheet. Should be ready soon!
