Foundry of Decay
First Post
For my 100th post (ham and lords! I'm so behind everyone else!) I figured I would actually post and ask a question.
If this sort of thing has been asked already, I apologize, but lately I've been trying to cut down on a lot of the time that it takes me to write for the campaigns I'm running. The big time chewer is, as most already know, stat blocks for enemies. These get even worse when you start having parties around the 9th - 10th level range and up, as I'm finding out currently.
So I'm curious if anyone out there has a good abbreviated style of stat block akin to the older editions. Very basic needed info that can be used on the lowly thugs, while I can keep the more robust blocks for the BBEG's.
I'm looking more for a favored format. I know I could likely just take the time to strike anything I didn't like for a shorter stat-block, but Its basically getting everything down in a unified form that won't have me scrambling to figure out where I wrote the critter's initiative or AC.
Just curious to see what anyone else might be using!
