About

Tabula

Features
Read full description

Tabula: Profile is an independent digital character-sheet and game-master companion for tabletop RPG campaigns. It keeps your character information in one place: attributes, skills, talents, hit points, mind points, radiation, experience, critical injuries, relationships, weapons, armor, gear, encumbrance and birr. You can manage several characters and import or export them when needed. The built-in dice roller works directly with the character sheet. Tap a skill to prepare the appropriate dice pool, or set the number of dice manually. Standard and automatic-fire rolls are supported, along with reusable custom presets. You can also build your own weapon and armor libraries. Items from a library can be added to a character without entering the same information again. Libraries can be imported, exported or shared with other players using QR codes. Home Screen widgets provide quick access to character stats, skills, weapons and the dice roller. Characters can be synchronized between your Apple devices through iCloud. The app does not require an account. Its appearance and several rule-related options can be adjusted in Settings. Main features: - Complete digital character sheets - Game-master encounter tools - Automatic skill pool calculation - Standard and automatic-fire dice rolls - Custom dice presets - Weapon and armor libraries - Character and library import and export - QR code sharing - iCloud synchronization - Character and dice roller widgets - Custom colors, fonts and interface settings LICENSING This app uses Free League’s third-party supplement license for Coriolis — The Third Horizon.
