Chapter II: Character Creation
— s ample C haraCTer s heeT —
Here’s an example of a filled in character sheet, using Nicole’s Elf Outlaw. Note the way her free advance (+1 to her Attacks Characteristic) is denoted with a checkmark. When she gets another 100 xp, she could spend that to increase her WS, BS, Ag, or Int by 5% or her Wounds by 1. She could not increase her Attacks again, because she’s already taken that advance. As a player, your character sheet is your most important possession. Here are some tips for its upkeep: • Always write in pencil. Characteristics, Advance Schemes, Trappings, Skills, Talents, and just about everything else are subject to change, so don’t use pen or markers on your character sheet. Nice, erasable pencil is the way to go.
•
Make a backup. Every few sessions, make a photocopy of your sheet or copy over a new one. If you don’t, one soda or pizza accident could spell the end of your character, Fate Points or no. Share with your GM. Let your GM see your sheet from time to time. It’s good for the GM to keep up to date with your character’s abilities and advances. Grab a grimoire for spells. There’s an optional third page to the character sheet that’s just for spellcasters. If you are playing a Priest or Wizard, you’ll want a copy of that to record details of your spells.
