Creating a custom sheet based on 5EOGL

June 14 (6 years ago)

Edited June 14 (6 years ago)
Hi everyone,

I created a completely homebrewed system. and I want to adapt the 5th Edition OGL sheet (by Roll20)  to my system.
Complete noob to css and html, reading the guides for help.

First of all, I want to verify something:
I can just modify the sheet at will and use it in my game, copyright should not be a problem as it is all based on my own system, even if I use 5E OGL as a template.

Second, using a custom sheet will not change any of my pre-existing attributes or abilities, right?


appreciate all input.
:)

Using a custom version of the OGL sheet in your personal games shouldn't be a problem, but roll20 might have to comment to verify that given that it's an "official" sheet.  I haven't seen anything that would contradict my assumption that it would be fine.

A custom sheet could effect pre-existing attributes if they were named the same.  Abilities wouldn't be affected given the macro finds the associated attributes.
