A backstory should be a functional document. Players who fall into the trap of instead writing a short story are wasting their effort — who needs all this useless information about the character’s childhood, filmic descriptions and dense prose? Thankfully there’s a better way.
The PDF provides scaffolding to the process of creative a character backstory, and additional pages for your character sheets. These extra sheets should help players structure their backstory in a way that gives the Dungeon Master more useful information.

Oh no! I'll fix it this afternoon. It's something I hacked together from some other designs, so I know exactly why it broke :( :( :(

Hi Matthew! Something seems to be wrong with the Better Backstories Sheet. It's huge (11MB) for two almost-blank pages. And there are a ton of layers that appear to be hidden with things regarding "physical limitations" and appear upside-down? For example, as page 2 is loading: https://i.imgur.com/NQjk4Uy.png Your content is great, by the way. I'm using lots of your changes in in my first DM experience, LMoP.
