A small CSS file enhances the header widths of the templates. The Heroic Fantasy Character Template is the main PC template.  The roll modifier is set as a dice ladder drop down as per the forthcoming &#8216;Dug Up Trivia&#8217; supplement. This will need to be changed to simple numbers to match the current 2e rules. There are two monster templates. One is the standard, the other includes a Monster Action rating as per the forthcoming &#8216;Dug Up Trivia&#8217; supplement.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-file\"><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-883f117d-ba79-4fd7-8cdb-518d11b7e3ca\" href=\"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Heroic-Fantasy-2e-Templates.zip\">Heroic Fantasy 2e Templates<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Heroic-Fantasy-2e-Templates.zip\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-883f117d-ba79-4fd7-8cdb-518d11b7e3ca\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"685\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Heroic-Fantasy-Front-Cover-Image-685x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-134 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Heroic-Fantasy-Front-Cover-Image-685x1024.jpg 685w, https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Heroic-Fantasy-Front-Cover-Image-201x300.jpg 201w, https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Heroic-Fantasy-Front-Cover-Image-768x1148.jpg 768w, https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Heroic-Fantasy-Front-Cover-Image.jpg 974w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 685px) 100vw, 685px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>A PDF character sheet is available here: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Character-Sheet.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Character-Sheet.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-95f4e5a2-4971-435b-a6ea-df9e552ce43e\" href=\"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/index.php\/heroic-fantasy\/character-sheet\/\">Character-Sheet<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Character-Sheet.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-95f4e5a2-4971-435b-a6ea-df9e552ce43e\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A PDF character sheet is available here:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-99","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"blocksy_meta":{"styles_descriptor":{"styles":{"desktop":"","tablet":"","mobile":""},"google_fonts":[],"version":6}},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/99","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=99"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/99\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":156,"href":"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/99\/revisions\/156"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fae.ttrpg.uk\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=99"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
