Talk:Character sheet

message: I have a problem with D&D being called a game focusing on "combat, skill use, and gaining abilities, in the order". It focuses on role-playing in a fantasy world. How one choose to roleplay: hack-n-slash, story involved; is ther own choice. The "stats" on the character sheet are just quick reference for those times when role-playing would not yield and easy resolution to a conflict: battle, arguement, falling, etc. shadzar|Talk|contribs 10:10, 27 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I'd hate to argue with you, because I somehow agree with you. I just find it peculiar that you don't consider it possible to find a resolution to argument solely with the use of roleplaying. Let's face it, D&D has a bad reputation for being hack and slash simply because it's the oldest and most abused game. Doc Daneeka 00:29, 26 April 2007 (UTC)

text: I think the point is that combat is very detailed in D&D, which makes it a good choice for hack&slash gaming. And the amount of character attributes taken into account by D&D make roleplaying secondary to dice rolls in a lot of cases, for example, trying to seduce another character will go through a Charisma roll rather than roleplaying it out at most tables. So while there's nothing to stop you from roleplaying in D&D (or in any roleplaying game for that matter) there's a tendancy to depend on rolls more than acting and discussion.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.70.141.58 (talk) 16:06, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

message: The character sheet shown as example, from Stormbringer, is in German (or something like that). I suggest changing it for another example sheet, but in English this time, since this is the English Wikipedia. PoisonedQuill 19:20, 19 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Agreed. In fact, I think it should be the 5e character sheet included in the back of the PH. I'm going to change that now.  SeabassTheFish (talk) 14:53, 17 September 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  The character sheet shown as example 

message: What about a Character Sheet (sometimes called a "Character Turn Around" or just "Turn") as in a detailed illustration of a character for Animation, Comics, etc. Usually a 3 or 5 point rotation of character to see the character from different angles. Sometimes they include an "Action Shot", details of heads/facial expressions, clothing/accessory options or even other characters/objects to set scale. This isn't the same as an RPG Character sheet, it probably warrents a "Disambiguous" page, or a Page for "Character Turn Around" and a link from here? --Iamdeadfish 23:46, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: This ambiguity somehow mirrors that between character creation (in the RPG / CRPG sense) and the visual design of a character for visual media such as comics or animation, including animation in video games. (See Talk:Character creation#Any reason this is specifically for games?) — TowerDragon (talk) 22:37, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

message: D20 Sheets is a resource for character sheets just like the other resources, it is specifically for character sheets which is what this article is about it should not be removed. D20sheets (talk) 12:52, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

message: This entire section needs a rewrite. Long before word-processor programs were even working that well to the general populace the earliest electronic character sheets were written in forms of BASIC that asked questions and took the answers and allowed printing, or just plain ASCII text with no function of an actual "word processor" or even ability to fill in forms.... Also it looks like advertisements and suffers from recentism shadzar-talk 22:14, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
