Thanks to AnaRchX, here is a fillable version of my Animal Companion / Familiar Sheet modified for Pathfinder. He also made a couple of other minor improvements.

The original version (here) has been my most popular post. e is a link to my fillable version (here).

Here is a link to his post on the Pathfinder forum:

Many thanks to George for doing this:

 

UPDATE: George has made several major improvements to this.

Added BAB fill able field. (Basic Attack Bonus)

Added CMB and CMD bonuses. (Combat Maneuver Bonus – Combat Maneuver Defence)

  • CMB = BAB + STRmod + SizeMod + MiscMod + MiscMod
  • CMD = BAB + STRmod + SizeMod + DexMod + MiscMod + 10

Cleaned up every fill able field. (Previously overlapping fields or fields not covering the entire box area)

Added javascript code to prevent showing numbers if the required fields are blank.

Changed the order of calculations on the form to include CMB and CMD.

Added a non  print-able button that clears everything on the form.

 

UPDATE 2:

George has made some minor fixes on how the CMB and CMD are displayed and are calculated. Download the updated file here: animal-sheet-fillable-AnaRchX

He has also added a version with NO grey text indicating the Ability Modifiers. Just blank boxes. (It was a suggestion from a Pathfinder user on the forum.) Download it here: animal-sheet-fillable-AnaRchX-Blank

UPDATE 3:

In response to a comment regarding his fillable animal sheet,  George  responded “I updated the companion sheet once again regarding the issue with the text still showing after the boxes were filled mentioned in the comments.”

Thank you George.

D&D Next – Winged Fiend – A New monster

Leave a comment Posted by on March 25, 2014

I  created this monster for my Fires of Hell module. It is included in the module but I thought that I would also post it here. You can send in a LOT of these little guys to give your players a hard time. Individually they are laughably easy to kill and do a tiny amount of damage, but in large groups they can be quite nasty.It helps if you have a lot of 20 sided dice (I know that I do). Once you figure what you must role to hit, roil your handful if to-hit dice (up to 16 Wing Fiends can attack a single opponent) but you don’t have to roil damage because each hit inflicts only one point of damage.  I had to add a smaller size category to those included in the play test rules.

Enjoy!

D&D – Lunar Calander

3 Comments Posted by on July 13, 2012

This is a calendar that I came up with to keep track of the passage of time in a campaign. I have used a similar calander in a couple of campaigns now and I like its simplicity and ease of use.

The sun travels once around this world in 336 days, visiting the 12 Lairs of the Zodiac in an appointed round that never varies. The Great Moon, called Luna, waxes and wanes in fixed cycles of 28 days (Luna’s cycle governs lycanthropy).
Each lunar cycle marks the passage of one month, which is further subdivided into four weeks of seven days each.

The standad week of seven days has the following days:

Day of Suffering (Su) Work
Day of Momentum (Mo) Work
Day of Turmoil (Tu) Work
Day of Weakness (We) Work
Day of Thanksgiving (Th) Work
Day of Freedom (Fr) Rest
Day of Sacrament (Sa) Worship

Each of the 12 months is 28 days long, made up of 4 weeks of 7 days each. The first of each month is a new moon and the 15th of each month is a full moon.

Note: All dates are from the rediscovery of the Great Northern Continent (GNC).

The Current Year is 1,342 GNC

Inspired by the D&D Miniatures monster cards, I created a Word .DOC file to use as a template for creating and printing Monster cards to use as a playing aid during combat. It is formatted to print a single 4” x 6” card. You can download the file here: Monster 4×6 card
