What’s changed with the new DnD 2024 character sheet
While you still can technically use the existing 2014 DnD 5e character sheets, there are a few subtle yet important distinctions in the new 2024 character sheet PDFs that you’ll want to be aware of.
- Attunement Slots: The new character sheet features three attunment slots for DnD magic items, with three slots per character.
- Skills List Below Ability Score: The 2024 character sheet now grouping skills with their relevant abilities for easier reference (this was not the case with the 2014 version).
- Spells Now On One Page: Spell have also condensed and now appear on one side of the new character sheet.
- Flaws & Ideals Moved to Back: These have been moved to the back of the character sheet (in the 2014 version they were featured prominently at the top of the front page).
- New Verbiage: There have been a number of subtle tweaks to the character sheet in terms of terminology, with the term “Race” dropped in favor of the new DnD species.
Final Thoughts

Cameron Nichols is a Senior Editor who lives in Boston, Massachusetts, and has been playing D&D since the early 90s, when he was introduced by his older brother and cut his teeth on AD&D 2nd Edition. Since then he’s played virtually every RPG he could get his nerdy little mitts on (including a weird Goth phase in the early 2000s when he rocked Vampire: The Masquerade pretty hard). His favorite D&D campaign setting is the Forgotten Realms and his favorite character to play was a Half-Orc Barbarian named Grug (who was unfortunately devoured by a gelatinous cube).
