Genesys Realms: Character Sheet Preview

By Simon Retold, in Genesys

I don't have a bunch of time, but I wanted to post a quick preview of the new character sheet I've been working on this weekend. I still have the second page (with Heroic Abilities and other goodies) and the talents page to go. Let me know what you think.

I love it.

I'd consider putting an "Other" under each stat, though that would run in to problems with two Others in the same stat.

That would actually solve a layout issue I was having between the Agility and Intellect skill groups.

I’ll do that tonight when I get a free moment and see how it turns out

Thanks!

Would you consider putting the source files on your blog as well when they're done? Please?

I will definitely consider it.

Many people play with Finesse allows melee, light to be an agility based skill.... food for thought

That opens up a whole realm of "Use this skill for that". I mean, before you get to that, you have to address that the character sheet can't be used in scifi campaigns, because it doesn't have a "Ranged - Light" versus "Ranged - Heavy", and scifi just uses "Melee".

That's why I asked @Simon Retold for the source. It's a gorgeous character sheet, but almost every campaign is going to have its own skills.

Exactly. This character sheet is focused on a fantasy campaign. However, I already have a variation of it in the works for a steampunk campaign world, as well as superheroes and cyberpunk (in the future).

The next iteration of this character sheet, which I should be posting tonight, will move one of the blank lines from the Other Skills section to each of the characteristics. That should alleviate the concerns about talents like Finesse, because it will allow you to write in Melee (Light) under Agility and make other similar changes.

I really like how these turned out!

EmberStorm is not Scryr, Aethermere, or Beyond Virtue

Scryr is a world within the Emberstorm reality. (Beyond Virtue is also now Excelsior! instead. And Aethermere is now going by another name, too, which I will reveal later. On top of all that, they all share a singular cosmology.)

This is some good design work. Bravo.
