Castle Falkenstein

This page describes how to use the Castle Falkenstein sheet by GiGs for this Sheet Author guide.

Designing a Character

When first creating a character sheet, the portrait image and the abilities sections will both be empty.

Showing Abilities

Click the little tickbox at the top right of the sheet and you'll see a big list of ability names, as shown. Just tick the abilities you want to display and they'll appear on the character sheet.

Showing the Portrait

The portrait box will display whatever bio picture you have. So just follow the normal procedure to add a picture on the bio tab, and it will appear here. You can then go back to the config pane, and click which portrait option makes it look the best.

Custom Abilities

If you add custom abilities (like the bottom one shown on the pic to right), click the dropdown to the left to set what suit the ability uses in play.

Entering Other Details

The rest of the sheet is straightforward. Just add information where you need it.

Using the Sheet

Ability Rolls

Click the button to the right of the ability rank, and a roll is made in chat. It's that simple! There are options on the configuration screen for whether your character name appears in chat, and whether you should enter the card value you are adding to the roll. If you know how castle Falkenstein works, that should be simple.

Average Abilities

The Abilities title is a button. Click that and you'll be prompted for the name of an Ability and its suit, and it's pasted in chat with Average value. That way you don't have to enter all the Average abilities you possess on the sheet, just for the occasional roll.
