Using MTG Cardsmith (www.mtgcardsmith.com) and the concept of “If it’s good enough for a monster, then it’s good enough for a PC” from Dungeon Crawl Classics, I present a test of a new type of character sheet that doubles as a “mini”.
,Another twist on the Character Sheet
this is reaaaally interesting!
I definitely see myself playing a game using MTG style cards for places, monsters and characters
TCGRPG could be a thing! haha
Also, reviewing it, I could have saved space by not putting the “Undead Elf Archer” in the large text box. With a little more tweaking, I think it would be more than suitable for starter characters. Once you’ve gathered so much loot, you might need to make a second card with Carried Loot and attach it to the back.
In the Type, you could put Undead Elf Archer, and # of HEARTS. That would save space, too.
Yeah this could be interesting, but we would have to make the stats very visible if this card will be on the tabletop, maybe just a bust shot for the character, to free up a little space. Lumpy Head rpgerminator has a token project that would be great for this.
Casting cost wouldn’t take a number higher than 9, so I put the Hearts there, and Armor under Toughness. Couldn’t think of anything to put for Power. What do you think?
Actually, I found that you can have more than one number on Casting Cost. So instead of 12 you can do 1 and 2.
If we’re after compactness, the ICRPG foundry module just doesn’t put stats that are 0. If you only have a +1 Str just show that.
