7 simplified character sheets

An immediate gateway into role-playing for a first adventure, an educational workshop or a group of beginner players.

Cover of the 7 simplified character sheets

Why simplified?

Start playing without being overwhelmed by rules

The sheets collect the essential information needed for a first Dungeons & Dragons experience: core values, ability scores, saving throws, skills, attacks, equipment and, when relevant, spells.

The design deliberately recalls an old-school 1980s aesthetic, while the structure reduces the initial cognitive load and focuses attention on what happens at the table: choosing, cooperating, role-playing the character and gradually understanding the mechanics.

They do not replace the full character sheet or official rulebooks: they are an independent educational tool for supporting a first encounter with the game.

How to use them

Support for a first adventure

  • Print one sheet for each participant.
  • Let each player choose the character that interests them most.
  • Explain only the rules that become relevant during the story.
  • Use the “On your turn” notes as an initial guide, not as a limit on creativity.
  • After a few sessions, gradually move to the full character sheet if the group wants to.
