Blog (A5E) Let’s Look At The Level Up Character Sheet

A character sheet is your portal into the game world. As a player, it’s your primary interface, and it’s important that a character sheet be clear and useful. Here’s a look at what Level Up: Advanced 5th Edition’s character sheet looks like.

The first thing you’ll notice is that it’s four pages. Well, this is ‘advanced’ 5th Edition, and we have new stuff to include — an entire exploration pillar, and a combat maneuver system, for starters! But that’s not all, and eagle-eyed readers will spot other things, for sure!

This sheet is close to final. It might change a little, but not much.

Really like this character sheet. Elegant, efficient, and easy on the eyes.

Like the Heritage and Culture fields. That split has been houseruled for decades, probably since the beginning of the hobby. My players often came up with fun backgrounds like a halfling raised by orcs. Nice to see it as a core rule in this set.

"Passive _____ " really has me thinking.
"Passive Intimidation" DM "You walk over to his table and he wets his pants."

What other skills would be useful/funny with "Passive" stats?

The page number spot on the spells list (and maneuvers) is freaking wonderful, doing that can simplify life so much for a caster player. Elevating passive skills more obviously than perception alone is nifty. Also kinda wonder what kind of notes will go on that attacks & spellcasting notes line

One easy but maybe useful tweak I notice that could be done though

If the left & right boxes were swapped it would allow more easily extending the treasure box below in times of need

Will there be a paired down, 2 page version available too? I know Pathfinder2e is bringing back the "4+ page epic character sheets", but I still prefer the classic front and back style, 2 pages total.

My one area of concern is the Skills, is there anywhere to just write down what your skill number is?

There's -probably- enough room to put your modifier between what your skill is and what your specialty is (Assuming you even have a Specialty) to the left of the Expertise die. But since I don't actually know much about Specialties, yet, don't hold me to that.

 

[TheSword]

It looks good but also close enough to the original 5e version that we can adopt that one for Roll20 until/if you get roll20 support.

Looks fine I guess

It looks like every other character sheet for DnD style games released over the last forty years. It wouldn't look much out of date in a book from 1983
It even has the box for AC being the little clipart shield despite no other box being stylized
