What to study
This is the character sheet the backfill queue asked for, and its core decision is to run two representations of the same body side by side: a slot diagram on the left that answers 'where is it worn' spatially (including slots no ordinary RPG has, Floating Nearby, Worn around Wings, a primary-limb marker for extra arms), and a lettered text list on the right that answers 'what do I own' as collapsible categories with per-item weight, AV/DV glyphs and condition notes like the wrist fan's '[no cell]'. The two halves stay in sync, the gloves selected in the list are the gloves lit on the doll, so the player cross-checks location and stats without changing screens. Even item identity is typographic: the painted boots spell 'painted' in rainbow letters inside the list. Frame at about 0:30 in the Spring Molting Update Trailer (Steam; manual extraction from the 1 frame / 2s filmstrip pass).

Screen inventory
- the modern UI's tab bar runs the whole character system across the top, SKILLS & POWERS, ATTRIBUTES, INVENTORY & EQUIPMENT (active), JOURNAL, TINKERING, QUESTS, REPUTATION, MESSAGE LOG, paged by Num 7 / Num 9, with a category icon filter row under it (ALL plus item-type glyphs), a '[⌘+Tab] show cybernetics' toggle at left, and the economy at right: $64 and 152/283 lbs. carried
- the left half is a paper doll drawn as a slot diagram, not a mannequin: labelled boxes for Face (selected), Floating Nearby, Head, Worn on Hands (the cursor, holding the zetachrome gloves), Left Hand marked * as the primary limb with a dagger, Left Arm, Body, Right Arm, Right Hand, Worn around Wings, Thrown Weapon, Feet in blue boots, and Left / Right Missile Weapon bows, a many-limbed Qud body needs slots a humanoid doll could not express
- the right half is the inventory as a lettered, collapsible text list: a) [-] Armor [53 lbs.] expands to painted steel boots ◆2 ○-3 (the word 'painted' lettered in rainbow colours), steel boots, zetachrome gloves x2 ◆4 ○0 and a vinewood sap mask, each with its weight right-aligned; g) [-] Artifacts [1 lbs.] holds a wrist fan '[no cell]'; i) [-] Melee Weapons closes with a bronze dagger →5/5 ♥1d2
- the footer is a keyboard contract, navigation, [Enter] Accept, [Insert] Set Primary Limb, [Alt] Show Tooltip, [Tab] Display Options, beside a live <search> box, so the densest screen in the game is still fully operable without a mouse
