rpgsheets.com usually has whatever you need for sheets.
Personally, I like the official one.
What is it you don't like?

Feb 03, 2008 21:31:06 I just make my own sheets using Excel. I can adjust columns and rows to any height I want, easily draw lines around cells, can add formulas to automatically update THAC0 and saving throws when I update XP, etc. My personal preference is to have a character sheet that is customized to my needs and is easy for me to use.

Feb 04, 2008 3:10:03 Excel is an excellent program for character sheets. I've used it with linked formulae to make character tracking for maths-heavy systems (like Rifts) and it does take the headache out of character advancement.

In my present campaign, I use it to track the xp of all characters, with a linked cell showing each levels' xp goals. Very handy all round.
