This is a 5e Character Sheet made for those with Dyslexia. The font used is OpenDyslexic size 16, sometimes 14.
The finished result is a sheet with 3 pages, 4 if you include the spells sheet. The first has the character's core statistics, the second has their abilities and skills and the third has all other information.

I made these for a user who needed help making D&D more accessible to her children so I tried as hard as I could to make things easy and quick to understand.
This is a non-combat character sheet meant to facilitate the process of creating and keeping track of NPCs.
I prefer giving each NPC it's unique small sheet of paper instead of keeping them all crammed together in a notebook or something. Having a form with fillable blanks also makes it that much easier to create a large number of characters.
It's about 10x15 cm, a quarter of the size of a regular A4 sheet of paper. All PDFs have two pages; the first one is the front and the second one is the back. I used the player character sheet as reference to try to get it to be "official" looking.

Also:
All races age differently. I recommend finding or creating an "age by race" table for quick reference for when creating NPCs. I also recommend writing how mature the character is on the sheet, in case you forget how that specific race works. So for a halfling, for example, I might write "80, middle aged" instead of just the number alone.
In the "Combat Statistics" field, the idea is to write the name of a creature in the MM or other book. The NPC will utilize these stats. So for example, if I have a Captain of the Guard character and I want him to be stronger than the average Guard (p. 347 MM) I might write down "Scout, p. 349 MM." Humanoids don't vary that much in strength, so for the majority of NPCs you could print out a couple of obvious stats (Commoner, Guard, Acolyte, Scout, etc) and refer to them as needed. This is much more practical than printing a combat sheet for every character, considering you have no idea who players might try to murder.
This is essentially a character sheet, but it's for towns and other settlements instead of persons. It's intended to help guide the creation process and facilitate reading and organization.

I recommend using it with my NPC Sheets.

I intentionally left some things out from this sheet:
The prices, foods, drinks and services provided by the local inn, as well as the inventories of stores. Rather than writing all this down for every settlement, I prefer having a single document for every store. I recommend checking this Traders & Merchants homebrew and this Shopping Catalog homebrew. Both can be referred to whenever players visit any and all stores.
Of course, if you want to write down anything missing on the Notes section in the back.
