Compact Characters

Some games will have some characters who only need a little bit of information instead of full character sheets:

  • stock villains and monsters which only need combat stats and sometimes a few special qualities or abilities.
  • battle-on-a-page where two facing pages of an RPG book contain everything a player or GM needs to play one side (the "NPC" side) of a battle.
  • book-of-beasties which contains dozens of creatures which need to be playable. Most of these creatures won't have equipment.
  • a "how to" format for beginning players, explaining how to do basic actions, what dice to roll, etc.
  • "collectible characters" (action figures, miniatures, cards or comic books about characters) with a little stat section, possibly a "full" mano a mano character as well as "how to" stats or stats for a simpler game like minimam.
  • A simple way to publish NPC's without having to make a new .svg file for each one:
Steven is an adult male human.  He is a robber by trade.  His mass is 95 kg and he is 1.6 m tall.
