The Summary page and the sheet tabs in the lobbies show the character as **A4 pages**: page 1 has name, attributes, derived stats and all skills (proficiency dots, attribute, points, total), page 2 has talents, mutations and implants, equipment, background and a ruled notes area. On the Summary page, **Print / PDF (A4)** opens just the pages in a clean window; choose "Save as PDF" in the print dialog (margins none, background graphics on if your browser asks). Hover or tap a value to see how it is made up (not printed). **Light / Dark** (in the lobby it sits above the sheet) switches the colours of the sheet on screen (remembered in the browser; printed pages are always light). The Word and PDF downloads on the Summary page are separate exports with their own layout.
### Rules editor
Admins get an **Editor** tab to add, change and delete **items, item categories, skills, skill groups and professions** with forms. Admins are the usernames in `AW_ADMINS` (comma separated, set in `.env`); without that setting only the first account ever created is admin.
- Changes are saved in `db/rules_overrides.json` (next to the database, so it is part of your backup). For each edited list it **replaces** the list from `rules.json`; the shipped file is not touched. A previous copy is kept as `rules_overrides.json.bak`. "Reset to shipped" removes the override of one list.
- New entries get their id from the name (lowercase, `_`). Ids of existing entries cannot be changed, because characters refer to them.
- The server checks every reference: an item needs an existing category, a skill a group and attributes, a profession existing skills. Removing a category, group or skill that is still used is refused. Removing an item, skill or profession that saved characters use asks for confirmation first (their data stays, the entry disappears from the sheets).
- Talents, mutations, implants, classes and the rules text are still edited in `rules.json`. Players see changes after reloading the page.
### Lobbies
The **Lobbies** tab groups a campaign. Whoever creates a lobby is its DM and gets an 8-character join code. Players join with the code and pick one of their saved characters (they can switch it later or leave).
