It's been a trip to come back to my favorite board game after a pause of 10 years....! After my divorce was sealed, I felt like I could come back to who I was before the madness and have found this website with all these amazing resources! I wanted to share my gratitude to the team behind this, because I wish I could have filmed the face of all my players last night as we were exploring our character sheets and using the tools as we were playing. While everyone is pretty much in their 40's, I had the impression to have a bunch of teens at the table :)
Quick questions:
- I've always had my own Homebrew of DnD. I use a cartographic personality rule to enhance roleplay. For instance, we get stats for the character's appreciation of violence, fame, luxury, spirituality and social. They can have for instance, an aversion of violence but absolutely want to become famous (Instagram feelz). We added this in the notes so far but I was wondering if there is a way to add a special custom table.
- We've been having a bit of hiccups adding equipment. Finding some weapons was a bit difficult. For instance, by typing "sword", not all swords would appear. I would love to see weapons by tags so that when we search for them, maybe we can get lists, faster?
Not sure about the tables, but for items, search for them under the general menu of DnDBeyond rather than through the equipment management in the character sheet. You can use the advanced filter to get what you want. (Can search by weapon type)
For adding equipment, you are going to the character sheet, equipment tab, and then the manage equipment button, correct? The search box there is an exact word match, so a Greatsword would not show up. Moon-touched Sword, Greatsword does because it has the exact word "Sword" in it. You can filter to only weapons, that are mundane equipment ("Common" checkbox), and you are proficient with ("Proficiency" checkbox), but that is about as narrow as you can get.
