Goodman Games

Okay, so I kept at it and think I found the right setting. Fingers crossed. I'll print off some pages at work tomorrow and see how they copy.

Next questions: How do I get them stapled nice?

For the french DCC crowd :

Another character sheet
A sheet for 4 level 0 characters
The occupations table
Fumbles and Critical Hits tables I, II, III, IV and V

All (and more to come) can be found here.

I went to Kinkos--they had a long stapler that they were nice enough to let me use.

Yeah. Failing that, open out a stapler, staple through the stack at the fold with the pages on some cardboard (or similar), pull the stapled pages back off the cardboard and fold the legs of the staples down as normal...

You're welcome, mate.

Holy hell RAD Colin, Thanks! You just killed my morning productivity. As someone who has not gamed since the advent of the internet, I've been overwhelmed collecting and reviewing these types of resources and my brain is just spinning.

Creating a campaign with custom cities, patrons, deities, spells etc is getting overwhelming. I think I'll say to hell with it all and run the 0-Level in the book and take it from there. Maybe let the players design their own patron if they want to.

It may have already been mentioned but Blackmarsh and the related Goodman Games' Points of Light campaign settings seem perfect for DCC RPG.

Has anyone shared this one yet?

The side view dungeons are my favorite.

Cool. Thanks for sharing.

Colin

You're welcome. I wouldn't create a setting before play, but rather start at the adventure locale and build out gradually, adding more as the players go through each adventure. I wouldn't even necessarily create a pantheon; like you mentioned, I'd get any clerical Player to make up their own god in co-op with me, and add more gods as things go along. Saves a heck of a lot of work that might not even get used for some time anyway.

Yep, Blackmarsh and PoL I have been mentioned, but they're still worth pointing out again.

Colin

Did the Cleric sheet ever get updated?

Not yet. Joseph and Harley are seriously swamped, which isn't surprised given that this is still essentially the launch of DCC as its whole own entity. A complete new rpg, a line of new modules for it, plans for Free RPG Day and conventions, etc. take a lot of time and effort, so if it takes them a handful of weeks or so to get around to forum posts, errata, or updating pdfs, I'm sure they can be forgiven.

Colin

I'm cross posting a little bit here, but I thought I'd share the link to my latest multi-layer character sheet:

http://www.filedropper.com/dccrpgmerged ... ersheetv30

I also added a few more pages to Jeremy Deram's reference sheets, mostly stuff that I knew I would forget about while I was Judging games:

http://www.filedropper.com/modifiedreferencesheets_2

I hope you find the files useful!

Edit: Fixed a typo in the reference sheets.

bj for the win! Erm, that sounds a bit suspect.

Colin

Koboldstyle/Kirin Robertson did a folder-style hand-tooled character sheet for characters of 1st level and above HERE.

donjon
A site featuring multiple name generators and random dungeon generators.

Wizardawn
Contains random generators for:
Dungeon Maps
Potion Appearances
Random Books & Tomes
Random Treasure Maps
Settlements, Fantasy
Ultimate Dungeon Creator
etc.

Colin

and a fractal worldmap generator, inn generator, NPCs, castles, towns, omens, prophecies, pickpocket loot...

Thanks for the shout-out! I've since updated the "Rival Adventuring Parties" table, which can be found here: Rival Adventuring Parties.

That's great! It would be really fantastic if you could stat the parties minimally (class/level, special items, etc.).

Seriously, if you are a do-it-yourself kind of gamer or DM, you must own one of these!

Check out my DCC Resources Page for cool stuff!

I think these are basically good to go if you are interested in adding them to the list:

DCC RPG 0-level Character Creation Cheatsheet
2-sided sheet containing just about everything a player would need to create new 0-level characters. Only thing missing in the Occupation table.

DCC RPG What to Roll
1-sided reference sheet detailing the various rolls/checks in DCC and how to determine the results.

DCC RPG Screen - Work in Progress
3 panels of the screen I am working on.

DCC Character Sheet
B/X-inspired starter character sheet.

Great stuff Kergalli - I'll be using these!

One question:
For your 0-level Character Creation Cheatsheet: step #9 (Base Move and Racial Features). Aren't those "racial" features actually "class" features which don't apply until the PC reaches 1st-level?

Page 21 of the DCC rulebook:
I extrapolated on the remaining racial abilities in the class descriptions, adding what made sense and would naturally be a racial feature as opposed to something a character might learn while being trained in a class.

Things I added to my game/the sheet:
Elf: Immune to magical sleep/paralysis and infravision. Immunity seems like something inherent and infravision because all the other races get it at 0-level.
Dwarf: Smell gold/gems. Again, seems like an inherent ability a dwarf would possess for most of their life.
Halfling: Two-weapon fighting and good luck charm. I could see an argument for not including two-weapon fighting, but I saw it as more of how halflings are raised/wired and that perhaps halflings simply do not favor one hand or the other which in turn makes them naturally good at using either. Again, good luck charm just seems like something halflings would always possess/couldn't get away from.

Ultimately, I felt the paragraph on page 21 was not a complete list (see Elf infravision, no mention of halfling's 20' move) and just sort of went with my gut/house-ruled it.
