Labyrinth Lord pocketmod sheet
It’s been a while since I posted a character sheet here.
This is one I started working on well over a year ago and then forgot about. Again, like my other D&D sheets, it is in an “unconventional” format – this time a pocketmod. If you don’t know your way around a pocketmod, it’s a way of folding a piece of paper to make an 8-page booklet. This character booklet was designed specifically for the format so you can have easily pocket-portable PCs.

The ability scores are on the second page of the sheet, leaving the front page for character name, race, class, level and a fairly large space to provide an illustration or sigil or crest or what-have-you.
If you REALLY suck at drawing, you can check out the character portraits online archive maintained by WotC from the 3e print run of Dragon Magazine. I’m particularly enamoured with Phil Foglio’s ones…

Here’s how the sheet will look when you download it. Just follow the directions over on the PocketMod website to fold it and make the one cut necessary to use it, and enjoy!

Never been a fan of the multiple-page characters of D&D fame, but this time, I will make the exception! Very cool idea!
Great idea. Thanks for this!
The kick in the pants about this is that I created it JUST prior to the computer crash I had. I found the PDF backup already uploaded so I posted it here, but if I need to change anything I have to rescan all the images and start from scratch… 😦
Really cool, thanks for the pointing me the PocketMod page. This might be a handy way of keeping track of lower-level spells as well. Hmm. Tiny font.
GJ Dyson. Ta.
(*nitpick*) AC8 twice on the To Hit AC 0 run-down.
You have two AC8’s. Should it not be AC9 for the last item(I have not played in 19 yrs)?
Very nice. It’s almost too small a space for the size of my writing, but I like this format a lot.
Yeah, I have AC8 on there twice instead of 8 then 9. And of course my source files are gone, so I’ll have to rebuild it from scratch soonish to fix it.
Bravo! I’ve been a big proponent of PocketMods since I discovered then a few years ago (in fact, I made a 3.5 Character Sheet pocketMod and handed them out at the GAMA Trade show).
Looks neat. On your THAC0 column, you repeat AC8.

This is PERFECT! I am a writer of Medieval Fantasy fiction and I have been looking for blank (but GRAPHICAL) characters sheets so I can keep a record of my story characters. Since these sheets are going to need numbers, you have made boxes that I can fill in with traits instead. Thank you so much!
Brilliant! I’ll have you know I folded up 10 of these things last night while watching 70’s B Horror on the couch. Thanks for the good time!

Nice CS! Do you have a tutorial for making a generic CS for medfan and others settings?
Nope, no tutorials since all I do is put them together by hand with a pen and then add the text in the gimp.
Which font did u use? Thanks!
I really just caught the pocket mod bug, even though I had seen this character sheet before on Fictive’s blog a year or more ago. Only now do I need such things, and I’m thinking of doing something similar with it for a few different games I play and run.
Fortunately, my best skills are in pencil, pen and paper rather than in the magic boxes, so I’ll end up following the same path you have trod.
Sadly the archives link you have above is no longer working… was hoping to see the Foligio ones.
Here’s an updated link: http://archive.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/arch/pc
The Foglio ones are under the “Hapless Characters” link.
Oh awesome! Ty much!
