What I did for the better part of 2020

Hi All! As some of you may remember, a while back I posted about finding a new hobby, and if I forgot to do so then, let me thank those who posted with so many wonderful ideas.

But. As I'm sure you also know, it was 2020, the year that almost everything stopped. So. I thought I'd share with you all what I did for the better part of 2020.

As you may remember, I have said that I would love to play D&D. Well, I am also a big Skyrim fan. So. I combined the two (well, it started out that way) and made a Skyrim-esk D&D Style (sort of) character sheet template. Tell me what you think.

Yeah. I did think about posting it in gaming, but thought it more a follow-up post to my "Hobby" post. So thought I'd post it in the same place.

This character sheet template was more of a way to keep my mind occupied through 2020.

Would most non gamers understand this or is it just me

chicago said:

So it's not gaming related?

Well. In part yes it's a gaming character sheet, but it's mainly to show how slow my 2020 was. Normally I wouldn't have the time to sit and work on something like this, something that I know is ultimately going to be pointless.

Oh ok understood. Thanks for sharing. Sorry I don't really follow tho or I'd have more to comment about it

That's fine. If I understand what you mean. You're saying you don't understand the character sheet, right? I know Skyrim and the whole D&D Style can be hard for some people. Heck. Even I had trouble understanding them at first.

Yeah it's like trying to read another language for me lol

What I had the most trouble with was the math needed for both. Math was always my worst subject in school. But. I get where you're going from.
