The Character Table

On the character table each player gets a gold row bearing their userid. Below it are the characters the player currently has active or “visible.” Lastly (not shown here) will be a red row bearing the director's name and all the creatures he or she is running.

The player rows has three buttons of great importance in it.

File Upload – this button allows you to upload a file to the server and send out a link to it, temporarily sharing it with the rest of the party. It's pop-up page describes its use in detail.

Visibility – this button opens a simple yet terribly important pop-up whose radio buttons control what characters are visible or active in the character table. Visibility is not to be confused with the invisibility that might come from a spell. An invisible character is simply one who is not currently being played. If the party splits up and one bunch goes on an adventure in town while the rest sleep, visibility would be used to hide the sleeping characters in the character table.

Busy Button – This light does nothing more than show when you are at your computer and playing the game (), or away from the computer and unable to play (). A single click takes it from one color to the other.


Character Rows. Each character in the game gets its own row. This contains the character's icon, current vital statistics and three buttons which are of importance to the character.

Action Light.This light shows whether the character has yet to act this round () or has already committed an action (). Every new round lights up everyone's action light and through the course of the game either the director or the player of the character can click the action light to turn it off. It does nothing but keep track of who has gone in the game.

Battle Board Movement Light. In the Battle Board's version of the Character Table the action light works in the same way. It reflects whether one can still move in this round () or has already used up all of their movement ().

Character Sheet Sapphire. This blue sapphire can be clicked by anyone. What it does is display the character's complete character sheet in a separate window.

Player Notes. Lastly is a small pad with a pen on it. Clicking this button opens a pop-up where you can write down anything you want about the character. These only last as long as the campaign does, so please do not write down in it anything of lasting importance.
