[h3][b]Update 2[/b] - Advanced Game Mechanics (Part 2)[hr][/h3][right][b]Prototype Character Sheet Template[/b][/right]
What follows are at least some key sections of a possible player character sheet, namely the Profile, Statistics and Inventory of a typical PC. I pretty much just jotted down whatever came to mind as a starting off point, all the while attempting to make things as clear and easy to read as possible, but of course some possible clarifications do come to mind going into this.

► [b]Profile[/b]
[indent]Random selection of info that would generally apply to a fair amount of RPs and a few that I passivley thought [i]might[/i] come into play depending on the setting and features at play. It's all interchangeable and depending on how I'm feeling, things like [i]personality[/i] and [i]biography[/i] (so long as the players themselves know what they're going for) might not even need to be plainly written down.[/indent]
► [b]Statistics[/b]
[indent]First of all, things in small parentheses are just there to explain the values directly to their left. All stats are laid out in a hopefully intuitive manner. I though about using the table bbcode to make things look more appealing, but simpler is best I imagine. I haven't tried as many RPGs as I probably should, so I just thought of the basics. They will of course change depending on what the game calls for.[/indent]
► [b]Inventory[/b]
[indent]This section will probably undergo the biggest change, primarily in regards the admittedly needless "mass" system. It will probably be removed completely in favor of a better way of keeping track of items. I was brainstorming different ideas for future projects at the time and it just sort of stuck around. Better solutions aren't that hard to come up with I figure, and future versions will definitely address them.[/indent]

Other sections for things like [i]Passive Skills[/i] and [i]Active Abilities[/i] are due to be worked on, but I just wanted to get the template out as it is now before moving ahead with a potentially deeply flawed format. I mean, it looks okay to [i]me[/i], but it pays to have more experienced sets of eyes on things like this. Let me know any of your relevant thoughts on this and I'll get to addressing them when I can.
