What, if any, character sheet appearance add-ons or enhancements come with buying the Humblewood sourcebook?
(My DM owns it so I don't HAVE to buy it for the rules (thought would kind of like to have it on my own should I leave the campaign, so no, not spending $60 just for sheet flash LOL), but would like to use any sheet enhancements it might have...)
On the Hitpoint Press website, there are some free resources available for the Humblewood setting including multiple custom character sheet templates. There are also some cheaper purchase options for the sourcebook (PDFs, misprinted hard copies) if you’d like to buy it but, understandably, don’t want to shell out a lot of money for something you aren’t sure you are going to use all too much.
I just got the sourcebook a couple days ago to DM a Duet game with and, so far, I think it is pretty good! The setting, lore and art are great and the player options are very nice. The only thing I would say, though, is that if your DM already owns a copy and (presumably) shares it with you for character options etc is that: a) a good portion of the book is devoted to the adventure which might not be very useful to you now as a player unless you want to DM the module in future and b) the player options are rather setting specific owing to their lore as well as their power level being on the high end compared to most core D&D player options. For instance, the Hedge’s burrowing speed alone is pretty far beyond anything on offer in the features of the races of the Forgotten Realms, to say nothing of everything else the Hedge gets. This isn’t really a balance or “my DM won’t let me play this” issue in Humblewood itself (obviously) but it might be in other settings. Hope this helps.

Do you mean like character sheet background images/portrait frames?
If so...there are none.
