DND for Dads Commission: Devlin Bashere

DND for Dads 1 PDF

So this morning I reposted the link to this post on Twitter (@jamesstowe if you'd like to follow me) and the response I got was pretty overwhelming. I've gone viral before with this blog but this was different. All day long actual people that play and talk and blog about Dungeons and Dragons let me know that they liked these sheets or retweeted the link to them or both. People who's writing about DND I follow and read regularly were responding not jsut to the art of these sheets... but to the sheet themselves. It wa pretty inspiring.

One thing was pretty regularly requested all day... high rez PDF versions of the sheets that could be downloaded and shared. So, that is what this is. All I ask is that you use these for good. Don't try to resell them or share them for profit. Don't pass them off as your work. Just ue them as intended... to help introduce an awesome game to people ten and under.

Now if you like them, well... I never turn down Donations. In fact, there is a Donation button right to the left of this post.

UPDATE: 9.07.11 7:30pm PST Someone suggested I try Megaupload.com to host the file. That looks like a good situation for now. can now download a smaller but still high rez version of the compiled PDF using this link:

UPDATE: 9.07.11 1:30pm PST I just got an automated letter from Dropbox that my Public account has been suspended due to heavy traffic.

DND for 8 year olds

For my son's 8th birthday party he convinced me to run Dungeons and Dragons for four 2nd graders... I decided to take actual characters made in the DND Insider and simplify them us that the boys could have fun without much of a learning curve. Here are the six characters I made from scratch for the game. I am happy to report it was a huge success, each boy had a fantastic time... and so did I. I would happily do it again.

Here are some Updates about the evolution of the project if you are linking here directly:

I made some girl specific character sheets as well.
You can find them here:
