First Post
You kids these days and your digitalized character sheets, and your noise canceling headsets and your subscriber content and your Youtube and your Google...
Back in my day, we didn't have this digital character sheet nonsense. We did it with pencil and paper, pencils made out of graphite that we mined from the Forbidden Canyon of Mars that we had to walk uphill both ways to get to, and paper that we made with our own bare hands from the bark of Yggdrasil itself while in freezing cold snow, yesiree we did. And we liked it that way, because it built character.

You had pencils! With graphite! You lucky basterd. When I were young we had to write character sheets by ripping out our own teeth and writing in blood. And heaven forbid you lost a tooth before the overseer could get his tuppence from the tooth fairy...
Perhaps I should clarify. Despite the format, these sheets are entirely analogue. You print them and scribble on them. Digital sheets are a very different business.
We don't use smarty-pants digital sheets in our group for the simple reason that we're geeks. If you give us an excuse to have laptops open, we'll waste our time browsing youtube and other distractions, and never get round to actually playing.

I've moved this project to a new website.

There's been an update with some minor fixes, and a sheet for the Dragonfire Adept added by a community member. Did I mention they're open source?
There's also a Pathfinder version.

Thanks to an awesome contribution, these sheets now include all seven classes from Dragon Compendium. I've overhauled the website too:

News, everyone!
One of the features lots of people have asked for is a way of getting just the pages you need for a given character. I've now created a tool to do just that. Tell it the classes you play, and a few other options, and download a personalised PDF. To host this tool I've also moved the website, so you can find it here:

New feature: coloured character sheets
A lot of people have asked for their sheets to be either lighter or darker. It took some technical wrangling, but that's now possible with the Character Sheet Composer. Not only that, it also lets you convert your sheets to various colours!
This is still very experimental, so feedback is welcome. In particular, are the light and dark options too light or dark? Are the colours too strong or too weak?
This option was made possible through the help of Mark Storer of iText, and Leonard Rosenthal of Adobe. I'm incredibly grateful to both of them.
