Digital Character Sheets

[Zovc]

I was wondering if anyone has a good digital character sheet. I'd like to be able to edit the character sheet (naturally) and print it.

So far, I've only tried PCGEN. Not only does it not support classes I want to use, but it runs horribly on this Windows 7 machine.

One of my personal favorites.

A character builder, or a character sheet? For the latter, you can use Mythweavers or a similar site. For the former, if you want it for D&D 4e, then get DDI for its official Character Builder. It's also slightly better for building character sheets that you don't need to use online...

I use mythweavers for online sheets, they seem to work decent. As for character builders...Ive yet to find a truly good 3.5 one, though I suspect this is mainly due to the massive complexity of 3.5

Agreed, Myth Weavers is sweet. It should work well for you.

Also new to this, how do you link your finished Myth-weaver sheet to this site, so your DM can see it? I can't seem to get it to work.

First, the sheet needs to be public. It's indicated by a colored eye icon on your sheet menu. Then once it's public, just highlight the character sheet URL and cook your copypasta to a nice al dente.

HeroForge is awesome. Sadly lacking support for MoI and ToM, and it has the occasional bug (usually relating to natural weapons, I tend to find...), but if you're reasonably skilled with Excel it's not hard to track them down and fix them yourself.

I use Xournal, a note-taking application that works well with my tablet (it also supports normal typing text). It can open PDFs as the "page", so I just load up the character sheet PDF I want and start writing on it. I save it as a xournal file to be able to edit it later, and export to PDF for distribution.

In addition to Myth-Weavers, there's also The Tangled Web and Coyote Code. I use Myth-Weavers, but the others are fine as well.

For linking, what I generally do is [URL="the url of the sheet"]Character Name[/URL].
For example [URL="http://www.myth-weavers.com/sheetview.php?sheetid=217793"]Rana[/URL] gives Rana.

Thank you for that delightful recipe!

And thanks to Savannah as well
