Summon Worlds · 2 min read

The Character Sheet stores structured identity and base statistics for a Character. Edit it when generated details need correction or when the Character changes during a story or campaign.

Edit a Summon

  1. Open a Summon you own. Tap Edit.
  2. Update the available content. This can include images, Summon name, Summoner Note, backstory, description or Details, and type-specific fields.
  3. Tap Save. When leaving with unsaved changes, choose Save or Discard in the confirmation.

What you need

  • A Character you own or have permission to edit

Edit the sheet

  1. Open the Character in the Summon Library. Choose the Character you want to update.
  2. Open Edit. Navigate to the Character Sheet or current details editor.
  3. Open the relevant section. The sheet can include Details, Traits, Knowledge, and Equipment.
  4. Edit Details. Update available identity fields, Armor Class, Health, Speed, Challenge Rating, Experience Points, Ability Scores, Saving Throws, Skills, Senses, Languages, Damage Resistances, Abilities, Actions, and eligible Legendary Actions.
  5. Edit Traits. Update Style of Speaking, Personality Traits, and Emotional Response.
  6. Edit Knowledge or Equipment. Review linked Locations and available Weapons, Armor, Items, and Spells.
  7. Add or remove entries. Tap + ADD for a new Ability, Action, Skill, Sense, Language, or Legendary Action. Use the red minus control to remove an entry.
  8. Tap Save. Return to the Character and confirm the updated values.

Respect the live character counter beside each text field. Limits can change as the editor evolves.

Troubleshooting

A field is unavailable

Some fields depend on Character type, ownership, collaboration permissions, or the current app version. Update the fields shown and contact Support if an expected editable field is missing.

A change does not appear in chat

Confirm the Character is the one used by the chat. Start a new message so Smart Context can retrieve current Character information.
