Having great maps for your gaming sessions helps everyone have more fun. But printing tons of maps for everyone to see can be a pain (and expensive). Just showing a map on a screen can reveal too much about your adventure. Fantazio lets you, the GM, have the flexibility to use as many maps as you would like, hiding and revealing only what you want your players to see. Your iPad will show and control your view of the map. By sharing your iPad screen via AirPlay or connecting an external diplay, your players will only see the areas you revealed to them.

About

Dekard

Features
Read full description

With Dekard you can build fully customizable editable "cards" for player characters, familiars, NPCs and more, where you track state such as hit points, spell slots, experience, conditions, or any other data you choose. Since the cards are built by you and fully customizable with the precise trackers you want, Dekard can support any TTRPG or even other types of games, whether it's Dungeons and Dragons, Vampire: The Masquerade, Pathfinder, Call of Cthulhu, non-RPG games such as Gloomhaven, or any other system. Free to try: includes one free card, enough for most casual players. This app is not a replacement for a full character sheet (paper or digital), though you can add any information you want. Instead it is intended as a companion tool, a replacement for the parts that change often during a game session. So put down that pencil and eraser and pick up this app and start tracking! Trackers that you can add to a card include: - Numeric (for Health, Resolve, Experience, etc) - Pool (for Spell slots, Rage, Edge, Damage, Hunger, etc) - Tags (for Conditions, Magical effects, Injuries, etc) - Switch (for Raging, Concentrating, Injured, etc) - Quantities (for Money, Inventory, etc) - Free Text (for Aspects, Character notes, etc) - Configurable Buttons (for New turn, Long rest, etc) - ...and more! Other features include a full history of value changes, customizable summary values in card lists, and a simple turn tracker. In‑app purchases: you get 1 free card. Buy a limit increase to add more cards or remove the limit entirely. --- The names and trademarks mentioned as examples in this text are the property of their respective owners.
