Another curious record keeping accessory (are we adventurers, or accountants?). This one is the Permanent Character Folder and Adventure Records. The adventure records are easy – they’re just tally sheets for you to note important events in a given scenario. The folder? That I don’t entirely understand. There’s some distinction between the stats the never change and the stats that do – the former get noted on the permanent record while the latter get written on regular sheets, which are stored in the folder, I guess? I never saw this in the wild or encountered a person who used it. I only own it because it was tucked in the back of a second hand box set. It seems not very useful.

The Erol Otus art is very useful, though. He has a dead dragon here surrounded by the party that did it in. They seem a swell sort. I particularly enjoy the horns the sorceress has on her head. Otus was apparently all about the slight occult signifiers – did you catch the inverted pentagram in yesterday’s post?
