Redditors and have created dyslexia-friendly D&D character sheets.It’s a good idea. In the UK alone, 20,000 cases of dyslexia are diagnosed each year. Symptoms include visual disturbances such as words seeming to move while you’re trying to read them.There are techniques to help. For example, the has been specially designed to be easier for suffers to read.These D&D character sheets use Comic Sans instead. It’s a much-maligned font but was. DM Inuyasharuls runs D&D for several dyslexic players and found Comic Sans worked best for these sheets.You can download the Dyslexic appropriate Dungeons & Dragons.

They’re a PDF that weighs in at just under 5MB.Update, Dec 19. This post has sparked a few conversations and questions on Twitter. Thankfully, one of the co-designers has kindly offered to answer questions. Please don’t bombard. I like the shaped boxes, they make life so much easier as they are more like a “picture” of what the item is so you can identify it immediately.

But I would recommend using a font like Calibri rather than Comic Sans, but each to their own, Dyslexia is a spectrum rather than a singular issue so some people with dyslexia prefer the more informal style of comic sans and others don’t because they key into a more formal clear printed nature of a style like Calibri. Having a range of these sheets with differing print that we could download and print ourselves would be a boon that way we can accommodate our particular flavour of Dyslexia. And this actually makes it worse, considerably so.I am sure it works for some people and that is absolutely fantastic.It just doesnt work for my dyslexia and probably for others I suspect.Making it a really good example of the dangers of making adjustments and assuming they work widely for people.As its a pdf its a great idea to see if this works for someone. But if it doesnt dont get mad, or question their dyslexia.On a more technical level. I have three big take aways.

Its to generic trying IMO to deal with two separate issues. The need for more visually representative data. Ie pictures or symbols that show what things mean. Second making text easier to read and process.One.

The use of pictures, can be great, but they really should be bigger and information should be in a consistent format. Not some horizontal and others vertical.

We use this approach at work and it will require a few more pages. I recomend the symbols be clearer or use actual photo.s. I dont personally need this, but its something wee use at work for more extreme learning difficulties.And two the lack of clear easy to understand font, sizing and bold. Comic sans(I think due to irregular nature of letters) works amazingly for some people.

For others like me its a nightmare and I find arial works a charm.A bright white background that creates a powerful contrast that muddles the words. In fact the inability to pull information cleanly from the sheet is what I find difficult, It sets my somethings of sense which is great for finding errors and terrible for sifting through an overload of information for a specific thing I want. The use of pictures here actually causes me issues personally. The coloring’s a good idea but to many colours create a confusing effect for me.

I struggle to focus on anything other then purple, red and blue. And purple (charisma) really stands out as its the colour I use for handwriting.I dont know if this was made by someone for them selves or made for people with dyslexia in general.

And its undoubtedly got uses. But It illistrates a lot of the assumptions and difficulties around adjustments that are commonly encountered. And make sometimes heartfelt attempts to help unreasonable.In short. Offer it to your group but dont insist or judge people who say no.

And be prepared to tinker according to each person. @Dean Pye Comments like yours are very appreciated and exactly why we made an editable version avalable. When I designed the original it was made for me and my group. We posted it on reddit cause we were excited about it and wated to share. We were not expecting more then maybe a handful of people seeing it let alone an article on it. On reddit we made it clear we aint experts ad understood it isnt for everyone. I am sorry it doesnt work for you personally and If i make a new one in the future ill keep in mind all your concerns and criticisms.

Thank you for your feedback. Total war attila guide. Thanks for the response. I am trying to highlight the danger of a top down approach. Of people assuming what works for one, works for all. There are a number of phrases on this page and in the share I saw on facebook that show that metamorphosis. From reasonable adjustment to unreasonable one.

Despite some of you statements clearly showing the opposite, and that your aware of the limitations and are honest about were and why you made this. People will be people and will present it as a simplistic panacea.As someone who deals with adjustments quite regularly especially in the workplace. The one size fits all, lets just roll out the usual adjustments approach is infuriating.The editable copy is a really good option as it allows a more person centred approach.

This is a great idea, specialy the colour coding of the skills and the changes in the graphic designs of the boxes that hold important information about character mecanics. From reading the coments and as a dyslexic myself I would like to put out there that when it comes to selecting fonts. It would be best to offer a veriety since, from experience, I have noticed that diffrent people with dyslexia prefure diffrent texts or even page colours due to their own personal abilities and experiences.

As example, I prefure times roman over any other font, even those specialy designed for reducing the impact of dyslexia, because that is what I am use to reading. I thank those that have developed these sheets and have made it easier for players with dyslexia to enjoy the game and reduce the posiblity of mixing Athletics with Acribatics (I do that way to offten). Another tip: Print on a “cool” colored paper (blue or green). I have an easier time reading if the background isn’t a bright color. Personally, I’ve found blue the easiest color to help me read. Do NOT use “warm” colorsthose are next to impossible to read from. If you must go neutral, use sepia paper.AlsoAll caps with Comic SansHUGE nope!

Only capitalize the first letter. Using all caps for acronyms is fine since HP is read “aitch pee” (you’re just reading the letter, not trying to read a word).

And, come on, Comic Sans, is hard to read even if you aren’t dyslexic! Use Times New Roman or Couriermaybe Arial or Calibridon’t pick a fancy font. Fancy fonts may be neat and look pretty or more authentic, but they aren’t used in every day written communications, so are difficult to read. Stick with a commonly used font. Thank you for your comment. I would like to clarify a few things, When making these sheets we made them specificly to help me be able to play the game with little to no frustration. We had no idea the sheets would end up featured in an article or even seen by more then a handful of people.

Before publishing we play tested these sheets with several players of various disability including dyslexia, Autism, ADHD and my own disabilitys. We chose caps and comic sans because those were the ones that helped me the most when playing. Because of comments like yours we updated the Reddit and the downloads to have an editable version of the sheets so players like yourself can change the fonts, colours and even the texts themselves to suit the players needs. I do apologies the sheets were not up to your standards and I do hope you take advantage of the Editable version and so you can use them to!

Just a comment for the author of this piece; I shared it and one of my friends who has dyslexia commented that the language used in the article re: “suffering” undermines the intent. He is frustrated by dyslexia but is not defined by it and would appreciate the language used in this article (and any future writing you do) be more considerate / less ableist.For more info, check:Thanks for bringing this to light and thanks for the original creators for doing great work, especially providing an editable form. Universal design principles are great to start; allowing for fine tuning for individual needs lets people accommodate more specifically.
