Character Sheets

In Quest Portal you can create two types of character sheets:
1) Universal sheet that can be adapted to any system you want to play.
2) The Enhanced Call of Cthulhu 7th edition character sheet.

When you create a character you are asked to choose the type of sheet you want for the character, and that sheet is then attached to the character.

When creating a character within a campaign instead of the Character Vault, if a template has been set the Campaign Owner, you will create a character using that template.

Quest Portal supports most systems through Universal sheets. At the heart of these sheets lies our powerful Notes editor that allows you to create elements like headings, paragraphs, lists, checkboxes, tables, roll buttons and more.

The floating bar within the Notes editor allows you to create the following elements in your character sheet:

Additionally, you can format the text by applying bolding, italics and more.

Universal Character Sheets can also make use of the Hidden Tabs feature.

Quest Portal has full support for the 7th edition of Call of Cthulhu. This means the characters sheets are styled and laid out to support playing this system. You will notice the main difference being the locked UI and layouts, which means the only customizing is in the Notes tab of the character sheet.

On the Call of Cthulhu character sheet you can click on abilities, skills and many more to roll our 3D dice. The roll results are then shown in a roll announcement, the chat and the degree of success/failure is shown.

Additionally, the Enhanced Call of Cthulhu sheet can be exported as a PDF.

All characters, either GM or Player characters sheets, can be found in your character vault.

As a GM, you have the ability to set permissions for a character that you are the owner of in your campaign:

You can use the three dots on the card in the campaign lobby, or the three dots in the upper right to toggle the following:

Claimable: This shows the sheet to the players, and allows a player to claim this character as their own. The action creates a duplicate in their character vault, and takes a duplicated copy as their own in the campaign. The action leaves the original still owned by you as claimable (and in your own character vault) for any other player.

Show to players: The default for a GM created character in a campaign is hidden (and thusly unclaimable). This option shows the sheet to the players.

To toggle, click on the dot and it will shift left or right. when the option is green, it is toggled on.

An example of the four statuses of a character sheet in a campaign:

If a sheet is hidden from the players, it will have the Hidden icon on the Avatar image.

In both the Sheets drawer and the campaign lobby, characters are sorted by the following statuses:

Player Characters. GM Characters (both hidden and unhidden), Claimable Characters.
