HERO System Sixth Edition Type: Single Character File Extensions: HTML, HTM This is a must have for every player and game master. This character export sheet looks radically different than the plain black and white sheets. It is styled to match the colours of the rule books and is done in a fun highly legible style. It has the functionality of the default character sheet, but has the following differences: Collates all combat information including Attack Powers, Defense Powers, Sensory Powers, Equipment and Martial Maneuvers in a special page block. Along with useful combat stats, combat values, combat modifiers, and hit locations tables. Powers, Equipment, Talents, Martial Arts, Skills, Perks, and Complications are in a wider single column format. Any notes you've included in the Hero Designer will be now be visible! Respects any formating you've done to your powers or abilities. Numbered list titles and numbering. Skills, abilities rolls, and Endurance costs clearly visible along the left hand side. Point costs on the right. Split into 4 pages for cleaner printing. The character image is on the 1st page with characteristics, personality, quotes, background and descriptive information. The recommended picture size: 288px wide. The image should be anywhere from 352px to 442px tall. The file " herologo.png " needs to be included in same directory as the export file. If the character has an image associated with it and you want to have that image included in the HTML output, you will need to save that image into the same directory as the HTML file when you export (the export wizard will prompt you to save the image). --Modified from the Default character sheet by desaturated May 2010, again in August 2011 with support for 6th Ed, again in January 2013 for finishing touches and bug fixes, fixed Move Through [v/5 to v/10] July 2013 Other Files:herologo.png Downloads: 140 Last Updated: Saturday, July 6, 2013 This file was manually transferred from the old Hero website to the new website on 12/22/2013 by Hyper-Man. The name/board name of the author was added to the file name to improve file differentiation. The file was originally written by desaturated based on a file by Dan Simon.

A sheet that prints the background and basic Name fields. include the herologo.jpg file in the same directory as the outputted character sheet for best appearance (BTW any file 150px wide and 67px high will work in the place as herologo.jpg as long as it has that name)

4 page Template for Fantasy Hero 5th edition. Based on the default template. Designed for two-sided printing. Prints the real costs for items in a VPP, so that spell casters can immediately see what real points each slot is using. Includes point totals for each section in the header and Total Equipment costs in SP Includes a PSL section in the combat summary Pg1 Characteristics/combat tables Pg2 Skills/Powers Pg3 Martial Arts/Perks/Talents Pg4 Disads/Equipment NOTE: use the first 2 lines of skills for PSL or leave them blank! The template will print the first two skills as PSL's

This export template is a derived work based on The Ultimate Character Sheet version 1.5.4. The template is style-sheet-driven so you can change colors, fonts, and text-sizes easily. I have tried to make the style class names as human-readable as possible so you understand what content the style class controls. All layout is done with HTML tables. In general, each page is organized as follows: Each page has a separate <div> element. Each page also has a page-border <table>. Each page-border table has a header row and one or more body rows. Each row of the page-border table contains one column (cell). Each page-border table cell contains one or more content tables. The template page order is: Page 1: Special header with HERO logo Characteristics Computed values Track END, STUN, and BODY Experience Points Movement Complications Page 2: Normal page header Skills Perks Page 3: Normal page header Combat Values Combat Skill Levels Combat Maneuvers Range Modifiers Called Shots Hit Locations Page 4: Normal page header Attack powers Defense powers Movement powers Sensory powers Equipment Martial arts Talents Page 5: Normal page header Powers Equipment Page 6: Normal page header Information Character image Background For quick reference, here are the template colors: Background color of headers (dark gray): #4c4c4c Text color of headers (golden-yellow): #ffcc00 Background color of normal defenses and STUN (light blue): #a8a8ff Text color of normal defenses and STUN (dark blue): #0000aa Background color of resistant defenses and BODY (rose red): #ffa8a8 Text color of resistant defenses and BODY (dark red): #aa0000 Background color of END (light green): #8ad18a Text color of END (dark green): #006b00 Background color of mental defenses and mental combat values (light purple): #feaefe Text color of mental defenses and mental combat values (dark purple): #660066 Background color of power defenses (light orange): #ffcfa8 Text color of power defenses (dark orange): #ff6600 Text color of power names (orange bronze): #cc6600 Text color of complication names (dark red): #aa0000 Notes: Most browsers require extra configuration to print background colors. You must manually select or clear the resistant defense check-box from the HTML output.

This generates an unformatted HTML output that is similar in layout to package deals/templates as found in the Hero System genre books with a few minor modifications. The actual output is intended to be pasted into a layout program such as Indesign, Scribus, Word, Openoffice, etc. where the actual final formatting is applied. The attached images include examples of actual HTML output, the output pasted in to a text editor (in this case NOTEPAD), and the final result of formatting in a layout program. This uses javascript to overcome some quirks with Hero Designer export templates. The output has only been tested in the Chrome browser so your mileage may vary. I have included documentation within the HDE file that hopefully make things clear as to how it works and why it works the way it does.

This character export sheet looks different than the plain black and white sheets. It is styled to match the colours of the rule books and is done in a fun highly legible style. It has the functionality of the default character sheet, but has the following differences: Collates all combat information including Attack Powers, Defense Powers, Sensory Powers, Equipment and Martial Maneuvers in a special page block. Along with useful combat stats, combat values, combat modifiers, and hit locations tables. Powers, Equipment, Talents, Martial Arts, Skills, Perks, and Complications are in a wider single column format. Any notes you've included in the Hero Designer will be now be visible! Respects any formating you've done to your powers or abilities. Numbered list titles and numbering. Skills, abilities rolls, and Endurance costs clearly visible along the left hand side. Point costs on the right. Split into 4 pages for cleaner printing. The character image is on the 1st page with characteristics, personality, quotes, background and descriptive information. Now keeps line breaks!

5E HTML Superhero Character Sheet This template (created in February 2014, by lou_tennant (aka David Dobson)) is based on the 6E Ultimate CS (uploaded by Hyper-man, originated by desaturated - which was based on a file by Dan Simon). This character sheet looks very different from the plain black and white sheets. I have adjusted the colours and elements of the layout - including reducing it from four sections to two sections. I have removed and simplified certain areas to focus on a Super-heroic/Champions style of game. So things like Hit Locations and the Combat Manoeuvres charts have been removed. Whilst I have made changes, using the 4-colour comics for inspiration, it still maintains a clear connection to the original styling/layout of the 6E Ultimate CS (uploaded by Hyper-man, originated by desaturated - which was based on a file by Dan Simon), on which it is based. Features: Collates combat information including Attack Powers, Defence Powers, Equipment and Martial Manoeuvres. Along with useful combat stats, combat values, and combat modifiers. The layouts for Powers, Equipment, Talents, Martial Arts, Skills, Perks, and Disadvantages (was Complications in 6E Ultimate CS, but this is for 5th Ed) have been amended, to provide a two-column section in places to aid with usability. As per 6E Ultimate CS; notes are included, and it will respect any formatting you've done to your powers or abilities. Numbered list titles and numbering, etc. Skills, abilities rolls, and Endurance costs clearly visible along the left hand side. Point costs on the right. The character image is on the 1st page with characteristics. The recommended picture size: 288px wide. The image should be anywhere from 352px to 442px tall. The version (timestamp) of the character is included in the footer of each section to help with multiple copies. IT DOES NOT currently include the Hero Game logo (I am working on making space) as the previous location I felt could be better used in the reworked layout. Once it has been included The file "herologo.png"; needs to be included in same directory as the export file.

This is a modification of the Champions3-Column Compressed. I have removed the champions logo and move the picture (if there is one) under the name in the left column. In particular I have added a 'version' on the character sheet giving you a date and time stamp to help you know if it is the most recent copy. The ".jpg" file should be placed in the same location as the character is being exported to. If the character has an image associated with it and you want to have that image included in the HTML output, you will need to save that image into the same directory as the HTML file when you export (the export wizard will prompt you to save the image). The image should be no wider than 240 pixels and no longer than 348 pixels. Modified by David Dobson (Joel Mason (sorackmage@hotmail.com) [original by Derek Hiemforth])

RTF - Vehicle Sheet Deric Page HERO System Sixth Edition Type: Single Character File Extensions: RTF This template will produce an output the same as the published vehicles with a bold line under each main heading. It includes the vehicle picture if one exists (it needs to be a jpg). This makes it easy, using your text editor of choice, to print just the page(s) you want. You will need to do a couple things to make it work properly and look the same as the published vehicles. You will need to create 5 lists on the Powers tab labeling them: Power Systems, Propulsion Systems, Tactical Systems, Operations Systems, and Personnel Systems in that order. Use this only for catagorization don't add anything to the lists. You should also add a separator before each one except the first. Once the vehicle is created delete any list headings that you didn't use. Make sure that on the Martial Arts tab you have a list, and that list name is "Martial Arts:(2 spaces)" followed by the name of the martial art On the background tab or any notes tabs you should type a tab before each paragraph After exporting you may want to delete default movement that hasn't been increased Please feel free to send me comments or corrections regarding the template.

RTF - RMV Character Brief Roland Volz HERO System Sixth Edition Type: Single Character File Extensions: RTF This template is based on Robert Miller's WG Character Brief template for 5th edition Hero System. It includes all fields necessary to create the Character Brief; however some pre- and post-editing will need to be done in certain areas as follows: On the Martial Arts tab, make sure to start with a list at the top written as "Martial Arts:(2 spaces)" and then the name of the martial art The Maneuvers should not be list members. In other words there should NOT be numbers at the beginning of each line Movement will need to be edited to show only the relevant movement method and the non-combat speed added after the "/" Normal Characteristic Maxima and Age will need to be sorted in the Disadvantages list prior to your export each time All other Writer's Guidelines formatting should be done within Hero Designer as needed I have included Robert Miller's macro, that will finalize the WG formatting, with the zip file that this template came from. It will assume that you did the items in the list above.

RTF Compact 6E (SH) Shane Harsch HERO System Sixth Edition Type: Single Character File Extensions: RTF The layout is a clean two column format with indenting and bolding for clarity. The Hero System logo is in the document, and nearly all character tags/information are included. Redundant information is avoided (e.g. STUN is listed only once). Sections are by column. Usually you can condense a character to 2 pages just by rearranging sections. The RTF in this format is only supported by MS Word, which is supported with the MS Word Viewer (http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=4). Other Notes * All skill levels put along side Combat Skill Levels * Encumbrance is only displayed if you have equipment * Equipment lists in a more "equipment like" format * Secondary STR produces Secondary ENC Table * If you have an image file the file size will be bloated if you just preview the character. Use Export to File to ensure the smallest file size possible. * Image should fit under background and must be a JPEG Please feel free to send me comments or corrections.
