I’d like to be able to duplicate my character without having to create it again from scratch. This doesn’t seem to be available. Am I missing something? If not, I’d like to request this feature.
Could we have a way to make copies of a character we have created?
Definitely a planned feature. I hope we can get to sharing, copying, and transferring ownership of characters after the Backgrounds revamp and Equipment updates (starting equipment choices, equipment packs, containers).
Updates when I can share them...
It's coming

Glad to hear that this feature is coming, I am currently running 2 campaigns with absolute 0-level XP(from a pen and paper perspective) gamers, and started by creating characters on my account, from my computer, to let them get started, then exported the sheets at the end of the night to pdf so they could create there own accounts and retype the characters back in.
Also looking for the duplicate/clone a character function
I often like to plan ahead for the next level, so I'll often have Character at current level and level +1 where I can tinker around with various options.
The feature should arrive together with the character sheet revamp, if I remember correctly the latest Development Livestream. No ETA on the character sheet revamp, but it should be sometime between now and the beginning of June.

Found it thanks! I'm actually trying to clone or unassign a character in a campaign to hand to another player. Different topic, but haven't found that thread yet.
If you want to unassign a character that you own in a campaign, there should be an UNASSIGN button on your character when you view the list of characters for the campaign. Note that this button won't appear for the character until you actually view it in the campaign. Once you unassign it, it will still take up one of your character slots until another player in your campaign claims it.
I want to unassign / duplicate a PC (I'm the DM). The owner of the PC has not been able to access his account (to unassign) for a variety of silly reasons.

Bump...
Want to see what a multiclass would look like without having to reorder stats et al on current build.

Good to hear!

At least it works for now...
So... How do we duplicate characters???

So, did it happen?
Yes, when you view your list of characters, there should be a COPY button under all of them. Click this button to duplicate the character.
