I don't love the Shadowdark default character sheet. It feels like a game that should have a ton of cool handmade sheets, but unless one wants to dig through the Discord (not the best platform for archiving posts or resources), there don't seem to be many out there.

(And yes, I would be happy to pay for form-fillable ones on DriveThruRPG.)

Is that the same format as the ones generated on Shadowdarklings? This is the one for the first character I randomly generated testing it out.

It's either the exact same or very, very close to it.

I would love to see some more bespoke stuff. It feels like there's an opportunity for RPG artists to go a little nuts here.
Someone needs to give James V. West (Black Pudding, Gozr) a nudge of inspiration. He's done a million cool artistic sheets for B/X, and for some other games.

Session 2 last night. First thing's first: some one needs to make a Torch bot for Discord.

The party was down to 5 characters -- one of the 6 initial PCs was skilled in the previous session, but another player dropped out so the dead PC's player just took on that role.

When last we left the grave rob---er, heroes, they were in the dark with the Scarlet Minotaur having emerged from its lair upon hearing the sound of the fight the PCs had with the ettercaps. The minotaur ended up going into the labyrinth following the ettercap trail, so the PCs were able to pick up the pieces and then go loot the lair. They did not spend long there, though, afraid the minotaur would return, so they moved on and kept accidentally going the opposite direction that would actually take them to their ultimate goal. Then, the worst thing happened: a random encounter was rolled and it was in fact the SM! It followed the scent of what they had stolen and now they were trapped with no choice but to fight for their lives.

And holy crap -- the dice were on the PCs' side in a BIG way. Those 5 1st level PCs KILLED the Scarlet Minotaur with only two PCs going down -- and those rolled really high on their death turns so they were stabilized.

We ended shortly after. The PCs have holed themselves up in the armor room for the moment to bind their wounds and figure out what to do next. The death of the Minotaur will not go unnoticed by the beast men for long, but to what result?
