LaTeX template to typeset Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition character sheets.

• Character and Spell sheets
• High degree of customisation available
• Works with XeLaTeX locally

It is reccomended to look at pre-existing character sheets in the characters directory when using this repository for the first time, each text input area of the character sheet is fillable with functions defined in the template, however it may require some trial and error to have the sheet looking as you intend.

The example or specific character sheets can be compiled using the following make commands:

make example              # Will complile the example "unnamed" character

make character_name.pdf   # Will compile a character by name from the character directory

A nix flake is a reproducible way to describe the building process to nix. See https://nixos.org/download.html, on how to install nix. Afterwards running nix build in the repository will result in a successful build.

Flakes and Nix-Commands are still experimental, so they must be enabled as described at https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Flakes#Enable_flakes.

There are a large number of character sheet customisation options available in dndtemplate.sty which acts a central location to modify colour and opacity for a number of character sheet elements. There are some commands in sheet-calculations that were made to auto calculate the modifiers and proficiencies, and auto complete a few inputs.

This package requires LaTeX and the DnD 5e LaTeX Template. I reccomend using the instructions provided with this package to set up your environment if not using the included GitHub action.
