What Do Your Dungeons Look Like?

I'm currently working on a fairly substantial post.  In the mean time, I thought I might share some dungeons that I've drawn.  These maps are probably 7 or 8 years old and we were playing Pathfinder at the time...

The PCs were low level characters sailing on a barge when kobolds attacked.  After a few rounds of battle the kobolds ignited the barge and made off with one of the PCs' friends.  The PCs somehow (don't remember how) made it to shore and tracked the kobolds to their lair on the side of a volcano...

In ancient times there were two rival coastline cities within view of each other.  One cities' sorcerers cursed their rival city causing it to sink into the sea.  The source of the curse was a stone that remained under strict security.....and of course it was stolen and taken to the sunken city causing it to slowly rise out of the sea.  The map below represents the uppermost spires of the city rising out of the water.  Naturally, there was a handsome reward for the return of the stone.....

And here is a sample page of notes for the sunken city adventure.  Of note is the bar-brawl and rumor-mill.

Pathfinder Character Sheets

There are tons of Pathfinder Character Sheets floating around the web.  Might as well add mine to the mix.  On the eve of the Pathfinder 2nd Edition play test no less.  But I think many people will be playing 1st Edition Pathfinder for years to come.  Some will never make the jump.

As bloated as it has become, I have a lot of love for Pathfinder.  At heart I prefer the OSR, but sometimes you crave a little crunch.   Sometimes you want those options.  Sometimes you want books to pour through.  And always, you want beautiful artwork by Wayne Reynolds.

I've tweaked and tweaked and re-tweaked my Pathfinder character sheets and could probably keep tweaking them until the end of days.  The version below is what I've settled on to share, for now.  I'll probably want to mess with it tomorrow.

To the slayer of 4th Edition D&D, I salute you.

First Post: D&D 5th Edition Character Sheets

I've spent years designing character sheets for various RPG's that only a handful of people have ever seen or used.  It is time to share them.  I also love drawing character sketches and have drawn HUNDREDS and HUNDREDS.  It's time to share some of them too.  This is an experiment, as I have never blogged before, so please bare with...

Nothing is more fundamental to a Role-Playing Game than the character sheet.  Very rarely, if ever, do I see a character sheet for a published game and not want to tweak or completely redesign it.  I know hard work was put into many of them, and some are beautiful, but how many are practical and user friendly?  Subjective I suppose.  For me a character sheet must be eye-catching, practical, and atmospheric.

Over the course of time I will be posting Character Sheets for the following games:  D&D 5E, Pathfinder 1E, Dark Heresy, Mongoose Traveller 1E and 2E, Cyberpunk 2020, Symbaroum, Numemera, Savage Worlds, Palladium Games, Mutants & Masterminds, Anima, Iron Kingdoms, Lamentations of the Flame Princess,  and others.  Many of these have multiple versions (especially Traveller -- at least a dozen.)

Let's start with the most popular game out there...

This is my standard version for Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition.

Below is the Spell Sheet.

And here's one of my character sketches.

That does it for now.
