Rogue & Bard: Enhancing Your D&D Experience

Updated: Aug 24, 2023

Once upon a time, in the land of insurance policies and claims, three brave souls - Sam the Rogue, RJ the Bard, and Miranda the Wizard - decided to trade their spreadsheets for spellbooks. Fueled by their shared passion for D&D, they embarked on a quest to create a company that would make every player's experience a critical hit.


Rogue & Bard was born, with a mission to craft not just pretty and practical items, but ones that would make Mother Nature proud. High quality? Check. Ethically made? Absolutely. Environmentally friendly? You bet.


Now that's what we call a triple threat!

The World's Tiniest Character Sheets


The World's Tiniest Character Sheets. Crafted with the nomadic D&D player in mind, these little wonders are designed to snugly fit into your wallet, purse, or even phone case. Don't let their size fool you, though. These mini marvels pack a punch, boasting all the essential fields you'd find on a full-sized D&D 5e character sheet. They're perfect for one-shots, and even NPC sheets for the DM or even the D&D Players Kit bag!


Having spoken to Sam at the UK Games Expo he told me that originally, these tiny titans were just business cards for the company. But after a chorus of "Shut up and take my money!" from players, Rogue & Bard decided to roll with it and put them up for sale.


Now, isn't that a critical hit of innovation?

The Ultimate Player Kit for D&D 5e


Next in line from the treasure trove of Rogue & Bard is The Ultimate Player Kit for D&D 5e. This isn't just a kit, it's the Bag of Holding of D&D gear.


Whether you're a level 1 newbie or a level 20 veteran, this kit is your trusty sidekick, in and out of combat. It comes armed with an A5 Character Sheet Journal, a dry erase Combat Stat Tracker, and an A5 folder that's as informative as a well-versed bard.


The Character Sheet Journal is like a TARDIS - it's bigger on the inside. It can accommodate up to four characters, each spread over eight color-coded pages.


It's got all the usual fields from the official character sheets, and then some. It's like unearthing a Deck of Many Things - all the cards you anticipate, plus a few wild cards that add a dash of excitement. Now that's adventuring with flair!

Combat Tracker Whiteboard for 5e


Last but not least, let's shine the spotlight on the Combat Tracker Whiteboard for 5e. This isn't just any whiteboard, it's the wizard's spellbook of combat resources. It's designed to keep track of those ever-changing character stats faster than a Quickling in a footrace.


This dry-erase board comes with tables for tracking hit points, spell slots, pact magic, and a generic points tracker for those class-specific resources like a Sorcerer’s Sorcery points to a Monk's Ki points. And for those nail-biting moments, there's even a section for death saves.


With this tool, you can keep your character sheets pristine and unblemished, free from the scars of frantic erasing. It's like having a Shield spell for your character sheet, deflecting the onslaught of scribbles and erasures. Now, that's what we call a game saver!
