I'm Loremaster for a game I'm currently playing in, but I don't like taking notes. It was an elected position. To make things better for myself, I said I would only fulfill the role if it was acceptable for me to take notes in character. The GM agreed. So now my 3/4 orc barbarian who never bothered to to learn how to read (because he was too busy hunting, mining, or fighting for his life or tribe) is adventuring to find his family who were taken by slavers. He's carrying a journal to mark down clues and make rough maps, but he still can't read or write. So he draws pictures exclusively. I'm using a leather bound journal I picked up at a ren faire, or GenCon, or something and hand drawing session notes. So it's all quick sketches and child-like drawings to get the important details down quickly because I, like Hnifur, am not worried about how any of the drawings look as long as they convey the proper message. Because of this involvement, I get an inspiration point (essentially; we're playing Pathfinder) every session I show up with the journal that expires at the end of every session. The best part for me, is I'm building my drawing skills again because of how quickly I need to sketch.

[@PheonixCheeseStudios]

That sounds really fun! .... I just realized we don't have a loremaster for the game we're playing....

[@dilanrae5417]

[@ellam5931]

that sounds amazing! i love that

[@halwaffles]

We don't have an official loremaster cause we don't have elected positions in my groups, but based on how vigorously I take notes in our 2 yr campaign I might as well. It's close to 300 pages now and over 80k words. Tbh, though, I might need to try out this method of notetaking. Sounds like so much fun and a great change of pace compared to usual notetaking style (which I love, but with multiple campaigns it can be hard getting creative on how to change your writing style to be unique to different characters).

[@OsirisMalkovich]

I wish my players cared this much about their character sheets. One of them literally has to dig through stacks of loose papers every game session to eventually find their crumpled character sheet. Another can't seem to remember what is on their sheet and looks at it each game as though seeing it for the first time.

[@anotherinternetperson8495]

Dnd beyond gives mine a nightmares just wish they moved to paper

[@kirstenc6221]

I wish I had the ability to care for my character sheets this way. I do better than most (thanks to my clipboard that is multi-classing a few points in container) and my papers usually turn out mostly okay except for the edges, but the edges always get messed up no matter what. I’ve used notebooks, binders, binders with plastic sheets- none of it can hold up to my heavy duty and accident prone self. Also I’m likely to misplace new stuff, so it’s all a mess... RIP my character sheets. You deserve so much. And yet you get the bare minimum... At least it’s harder to get exiled, unlike the dice...

[@robertregan637]

most people I play with dont even care to take notes only the older players seem too althought was playing in a game and a player was noting down evrything the DM was saying. The DM nastily asked him what he was doing when he told him he did not seem pleased. As a Dm I hate that in 4 player party only one person take notes, I always take notes it was the way I have been taught to play.

The spell cards do exist for warlock! The Arcane deck includes wizard, warlock, and sorcerer spells. I LOVE your notebook so much. I’m inspired to go make my own now 👀

[@GinnyDi]

...BLESS, thank you!! I guess I was just looking wrong!

[@quinnsinclair7028]

The arcane deck isn't super helpful. It's missing any subclass specific spells that all warlocks get which means you need every single deck for those extra spells since the warlocks expanded spell list draws from literally every spell list. It's also just missing a handful of warlock spells.

[@bruitist]

I made a character profile for my character back when I was playing Starfinder, he was essentially a cleric. I found it really handy to have a page of "Personality quirks." It was filled with things like "enjoys referencing the sun when speaking" or "Will not talk about the undead in a good light." There was also a whole section for "Wise Says" since he was played a bit like a buddhist monk, and im not that quick witted on my feet, so i sat down and wrote out a bunch of sayings he could use when the moment was right.

I love you character notebook. You are right, standard size binders take up too much room at our table. I have happily used comp books for my characters. Currently I am using a combination of phone app for my spells (and that of everyone else in case I have to play their character that day) as well a purple sparkly comp book for my Bard /Divine warlock. It has both campaign notes and bardic parodies that I've written over the course of the game. They've all been kind of stuck in where there was room an inspiration so I've had to start adding post-it flags to be able to find which are songs and which are campaign notes. I have been chronicling the adventures we've had in bardic parody. One of of our other party members is chronicling the events from her characters pov in a diary. Every week we look forward to "his" journal update. She has taken care to handwrite about 4pages/wk in a somewhat messy misspelled printed style. We all look forward to "Brick's " weekly entry because they're hilarious.

I fished my cards out of the "Arcane" deck, which has some warlock specific spells buried within too. I keep them in sleeves just like those, except I don't double stack them. That way, it keeps the big level number on the back visible for quick reference...it _does_ add more pages though, and I _ammm_ a wizard so I'll have a lot of spells building up....buuut that's just more fun organizing for me, so that ain't no problem!

[@milo14564]

Your character journal looks fun. Scrapbook style is a very versatile way of keeping a character organized. I've been keeping character journals for years. Until recently, they've been words. Either dry bullet points, diary entries from my character's POV or as a novel-like story. The journal of my current character, now 2 years old, is a sketch journal. As the book is flipped through, you can follow the character's adventures through a chronology of pictures, with each "chapter" ending with a flashback. The sketchbook is filled with drawings and paintings of highlights from each session. Between each session set, I include a drawing or two from his backstory.

[@theyxaj]

I... love this so much. I play in digital groups because sadly there isn't a lot of d&d around me locally.. But our campaign is getting really close to wrapping up and I've been looking for someone I can make to commemorate my character once the campaign is done. This has given me so many ideas, so thank you!

This makes me so happy. I've been trying to Bujo but I never really got the knack of keeping a schedule. Now I can use all the cute tools and stickers and such I got for that to make character journals instead.

This is fantastic and sings to my organization-loving SOUL. I've generally kept character/session notes in their own notebooks (Cadence wound up being spread across 3 or 4 by the end, but Magpie is so far confined to one), but this is just a whole other level. Absolutely beautiful work!

This is such a beautiful interesting way to contain lots of info for a character. I love this idea. ❤️

You have such beautiful handwriting! Thank you for this inspiration, I never really thought about D&D journals until you put this video out

Ginny I have rewatched this multiple times for your ad. It really was brilliant and helped me turn my husband and friends into your fans❤️ Was also inspired by your gaming notebook and am in the process of making mine❤️
