D&D Character Sheet As Resume

That's a pretty cute idea :)

I don't know if anyone would want to hire an Orc though... They have bad tempers and they smell bad.

... What is a 15th level artist and 11th level animator?

Is there something that I am missing as I am an artist and do not know that about levels to being artist/animator...

You know this is totally ridiculous. I don't think the guys at TSR would hire you with this resume.

Very clever. I dig it. This is one resume I'd read. Nicely done.

How better to say tell us that he will not fit in! I love it when a resume is easily rejected.

Cute, but a bit tricky to pull off well. I don't how it is in Australia, but in the U.S. prospective employers would probably be a bit discomfited by the fact skin color is included on the sheet.

Also, what is the employer to make of the fact that the person has obviously exaggerated his stats (Dex 22, Cha 20), yet still has a self-proclaimed Wisdom of 8?! Frankly, that's probably would be the stat I'd most care about as an employer.

Also, it seems like a bit more modesty might be called for since the "character" is still in school. I like that the skills are described in "ratings" (though I'm a bit dubious about a not-yet-a-profession having "advanced" skills), but think it would probably be better to get rid of the numeric level rating.

Greatest game EVER MADE!

I see that Wisdom is his "dump stat."* That explains a lot.

*The stat you forget about so you can maximize the ones you care about. For most gamers, it's Charisma. _That_ explains a lot, as well. :-P

Maybe it'll work, maybe it won't (I'm betting on the latter). At least it's a momentary diversion.

I am probably revealing what a huge dork I am, but the ability modifiers aren't calculated correctly. They should read: +3, +6, +3, +6, -1, +5. And an orc with 23 intelligence? 18 in a stat is considered genius, and orcs get minuses to intelligence.

Absolutely brilliant idea though.

I predict he will fail his saving throw vs. unemployment

I liked the resume. The goal of a resume is to get you the job. It does so by getting you noticed. It gets you noticed by setting you apart. This guy definately set himself apart!

Now granted, part of the appeal to me is that I'm a D&D nerd from way back. I imagine it would be lost on someone who didn't know about the game. As long as it's targeted to someone who'd understand, he'd be a good candidate for an interview.

that is the most awesome resume I've seen in a long time. I'm questioning the 20 charisma, but hey, maybe you're a funny guy.

Rolling Rock beer rocks.
