You could probably use some kind of Custom Fields For Authors / Profiles, plugin. One example is
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/register-plus/
That one has this feature: “Profile Fields. Want more done sooner? Have new users fill out there entire profile or just bits you need all during registration, you can even make them required. Now includes the abililty to add select, checkbox, radio and textarea fields!”
So you could ask all the character sheet questions, on the form, that the user must fill out when signing-up as a registered user of the site. Then the fields of data would show up on that login name’s Profile. So each user’s Profile would be their character sheet.
You could hack it more, if you wanted each user to have multiple character sheets under their login name.
Hope this helps. Just an idea, one approach
This is awesome!! Thanks a bunch, one more question though. Is there anyway now to show their profile on the site so they can link their page to their character in game?
I’d like to have it so that when someone signs up and puts their information in they can click on a link and it will take them away from their admin area to the actual site where it would display their information to the public. Well their character information anyway.
You CAN do almost anything. Just, prepare to dive in, experiment, and hack the code. OR if you need to be strategic, try to use existing things so you don’t have to hack as much.
Basically, if you let your friends be Authors on the blog, WP has already got a built in Author profile page for every author (if your theme has it). You can add more fields, maybe with the plugin I said above, or other ways. You can style it however you want, if you can do the CSS.

ESPECIALLY this article from Lorelle, she inspires possibilities,

This lets you put any Author’s “Description” field in your templates,
