My latest PDF creation

Over the months, I have seen some great ideas sold as PDF files through enworld.org (still the best site for all things D&D outside of Wizards of the Coast). The latest one was Condition Cards which has each of the definitions and modifiers from the glossary of the PHB conveniently available on a small card. I know we end up frequently flipping through that glossary trying to remember whether or not a PC can defend himself after a spell declares him Stunned, Frightened or Dazzled. Being a former typesetter who still retains his basic skills I put this together at a relatively decent clip. The few bucks I saved were put toward the cost of photocopying them to cardstock at kinko’s.

Now the real test will be coming up when I run the game. Someone’s rogue is hit with a spell that states she is Nauseated. I just hand her the appropriate card and she modifies the rogue’s actions accordingly. Hopefully this will speed up the game. I made an additional set for my friend Flynn as a little gift for all his hard work and opinions. Since his Traveller campaign uses the same core rules from D&D, these cards may assist him. Our characters just end up being Panicked, Stunned or Nauseated by ray guns, not magic.

If you want a copy for your own purposes, just click on the follow phrase: Condition Cards. They’re four-up (four per 8 1/2″ x 11″ piece of paper) and they do line up correctly if you have the means to print or copy double-sided. At least that’s what my QuarkXpress software states.
