Roll20 for Savage Worlds
Character sheets and tokens
We use the official character sheets for Savaged Worlds.
For the character tokens, we link the red, green, and blue bubbles and link these to character sheet attributes to track and display these values.
- Wounds: We link the red circle overlay for the token with the Wounds attribute on the character sheet
- Fatigue: We link the green circle overlay for the token with the Fatigue attribute on the character sheet
- Power points: We link the blue circle overlay for the token with the Power Points attribute on the character sheet
Shortcut: Press SHIFT and double-click the character token to display the character sheet.
Bennies
We use a special deck of Tokens for these. This deck will vary depending on the theme of the game.
To access your stack of bennies, click the benny token above your name at the bottom of the screen (in a semi-transparent box). To spend a benny, click the token and drag it to the tabletop. If you spend a benny by mistake, right-click it and select Take Card to put it back in your hand. To close the view of your bennies, click the benny token above your name at the bottom of the screen.
Initiative
We deal cards for the turn order. If you have an edge of other modifier that effects cards, make sure it is known to the GM. If the GM forgets, remind him.
