RPGenius: Character Sheets
* Define Stats; either basic numeric values, text, or calculated using a formula
* Define Effects, to toggle equipment/buffs/debuffs
* Define Stat Groups, to apply effects en masse and auto-create tables
* Create a matrix of two stat groups to auto-calculate Attribute/skill totals and the like. Display it as a grid or a pair of drop downs and include a modifier for all results (such as a wound penalty) if you like.
* Make temporary adjustments and reset them later, e.g. lose hit points then reset when healed
* Save your own templates for your preferred game system/house rules and re-use them later
* Customize the look and feel of the character sheet by using changing fonts and color schemes
* Add images from your device to show character portraits, system logos, etc
* Include links to websites, direct on the character sheet
* Share your character sheet by email, and import on another device just by clicking the attachment
The app ships with character sheet templates for DnD 3.5, Pathfinder, Star Wars D20, Vampire, Call of Cthulhu and Savage Worlds. The app allows you to create your own so it really can be used for any game system including homebrew/house rules.
On the website at https://sites.google.com/site/rpgeniusapp/ there is an Excel workbook you can use to quickly generate your own templates, to save having to type the names of all the stats on your Android device.
Feedback welcome by email.

Awesome app for any tabletop game. Is there a way to enter percentages, or have a decimal round up instead of down
Ok-ish for simple systems, yet creating a sheet still takes to much time. Not usable for complex systems that rely on tables to determine bonuses based on stats you have.
Not only is the app easy to use for Savage Worlds, but the developer of the app is super helpful when you have stupid technical problems like I do. Small caveat: saving to google drive seems useless. Email yourself character sheets if you want to open them on multiple devices with the least hassle! Still, overall a great app, and an awesome developer. A highly reccomended buy!
I play in heavily house ruled games and several different rule sets: D&D 3.5, AD&D 1e, WoD, PF, Qin... This app can be used for all of them. There is a slight learning curve but worth the night of messing around with it to figure it out. I would have been stuck using a pdf on my new tablet for my character sheets if not for this app. I can't believe this was so hard to find - when I bought my tablet I was assuming that there would be tons of character sheet apps out there like this but most of them are very limited or only work with a particular rule set. Then they don't alow for house rules and who has a game without house rules? I love the linking feature because I can link my special abilities, spells and items to on-line wiki to get more info as needed. Buy the app, mess with it for a few hours, and you can return it if you don't like it. I believe it's well worth the cost.
This app is great in theory, except that I can't get the first section of a basic character sheet built without the app crashing to home screen or saving corrupt files for my character sheet.
App is definitely Awesome. With enough ingenuity can do almost anything. Need the ability to enter decimals but otherwise great. there any chance you can make an iPhone version of this?
Some instructions would be nice.
A bit of a learning curve but once you figure it out it fits any Pen and Paper RPG out there. Excellent job.
Love this app. So nice to be able to customize your character sheet.
This app is actually very good in comparison to other apps that I have used for character creation. I code computer software and apps as a hobby and hopefully as a career so I found the code sourcing layout for formulaic design very useful. I would give this app 5 stars but there is still only one problem and I am not sure whether I just can't find it or whether or not I can edit it or not but here goes: is there a way to change the variable names in association for their values? Please respond
There is a bit of a learning curve, but with a few hours spent messing around its actually quite powerful. Well done!
All my friends are jealous at how powerful my character sheet is. I'm the only person who doesn't mess up rolls or needs a pen and paper. Significantly faster with less work and more intuitive than even my friends using laptops. I can copy and paste all the definitions and rules directly into buttons for easy long press access. I hope every savage world player discovers this app. Note to users, I recommend donating, you know this developer can't charge what its worth in this ecosystem.
Thank you for the quick update. Honestly the best app for D&D. I brought it over a few times and now all my friends are putting it on their phones. Thanks for making an app that really represents android. Full open source building. The update response for fixes is great. Really impressed by the speed of the developer
This app is actually unusable, it crashes every time I try to edit a stat or change a field, not sure why/how it is working well for others, but it sure isn't for me.
Would be nice to have some IF statement functionality built in. Or if variables could be set to Strings, for example, my Axe might have an extra d6 of fire damage, but my sword might not, how do I display this difference of damage, a trailing string value when displaying damage would work. Example might be [MeleeDiceCount] D [MeleeDiceDam] [StrMod] [StringExtraDamage] in this example [StringExtraDamage] would contain "+1 d6 Fire" and a default value of blank so it would not be displayed unless enabled.
I like the look, and so far so good, but some kind of how-to would be appreciated. Still, think this one looks worth the price.
Finally! A character sheet app that can cover everything. The addition of formulas is great, I think I can cover everything I'm likely to need now!
A bit time consuming to set up, but its exactly what I've been looking for. Would like the ability to create templates, as opposed to making new copies of blank char sheets when making a new char for a different system.
While I don't care for the looks within the app the power of the app is great. Can make a character with shape very easily!
Wonderful app, lots of room to make it pretty much anything you need it to be. Unfortunately, the inherent screenspace/data entry issues presented by running this on a phone (even a large-screen device) make this a poor choice for me, as the device interface makes creating/modifying/navigating all the variables and menus painful. These issues are not the creator's fault, and I'm sure I'd love this on a PC or tablet where typing and scrolling are less of an issue.
Needs an instruction manual. I may not be patient enough but when it says genius, it really takes one to understand what it's trying to have you do at the beginning
The "template" for the Savage Worlds does not actually calculate anything. It's not really helpful. I'll stick to the self calculating Excel generators...
App downloads indefinitely without finishing
This app is great, if a little outdated in terms of look. But its one of the very few custom character sheets out there. As a long time player and GM I find that this is really useful, especially since I seem to be playing a lot of custom games of late. Three requests that sort of work hand in hand. 1) Drop down menus 2) If, Then options. 3) The option to delete old character sheets (very important for housekeeping!) The game I currently am playing uses this Low, Medium, High option for stats. So it would be great to have something that is like "If [Low], [Hitpoints] = 25
