DnD Initiative Tracker and DM Binder 5e

Twelve fillable sheets for before, during and after the session — a dnd initiative tracker, a session plan, and ten more, each one page doing one job.

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

📦 WHAT YOU GET — 12 sheets

▪ Tonight — the session plan. The opening line you read out, the three things that must happen, and where the evening still works if they ignore all three

▪ Encounter tracker — initiative, rounds, hit points and conditions, with room for a fight that fills the table, and space for what the monsters want and when they stop

▪ The party at a glance — so you never ask for a passive perception again, plus one thing each of them wants and what is going on between them

▪ Quest tracker — everything they said yes to, who gave it, what it pays, and whether it is running

▪ NPC record — four to a page: who they are, what they want, and what they will not say

▪ Location sheet — a town, a shop or a ruin, with three things you can say out loud when they walk in

▪ Travel log — legs, ground, watch order, supplies, and what happened on each one

▪ Who wants what — the factions, what each of them is after, and what they do next if nobody stops them

▪ Campaign timeline — what changed in the world, session by session

▪ Loot and rewards — what was found, who is carrying it, and what is still owed

▪ Downtime — who did what between sessions, what it cost, and what came of it

▪ What the players know — what they have been told out loud, what they worked out themselves, what they still do not know, and what they believe that is wrong

⏱️ HOW A SESSION USES IT

📝 Before — you fill in one page: Tonight. The opening line, the three things that have to happen, and what the evening turns into if the party ignores all three. That is the half hour.

⚔️ During — you are writing on two: the encounter tracker while a fight is running, and the NPC record when somebody walks in that you had not planned for.

🌙 After — three more: what the players now know, what changed in the world, and what each of them is doing before you meet again.

Nothing here has to be used in order, and no sheet depends on another one being filled in.

⌨️ FILLABLE, OR PRINT IT

Print the sheets you actually use and put them in a ring binder, or open the fillable build and type straight into it.

Open it in any PDF reader, type, and save. Nothing is locked and nothing needs an account.

🖨️ The ink-saver build drops the tint and prints the rules grey. That matters on the ones you reprint every week.

✨ THIS IS FOR YOU IF

▪ You want an initiative tracker that has somewhere to write what the monsters want, not just their hit points

▪ Your prep expands to fill whatever time you give it, and you would rather it were one page

▪ You keep forgetting which NPC promised what

▪ You have a faction doing something in the background and nowhere to write it down

▪ You want to know what your players believe that is wrong

▪ You run on a tablet and want a fillable PDF, or on paper and want a binder

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

🚫 WHAT IS NOT IN IT

No rules reference and no condition list.

A sheet you fill in and a sheet you read from are different objects and they want different homes, so this one does not pretend to be both.

No item cards and no spell cards either — those are their own things, and they are not padding for this.
