Dekard
Read full descriptionHide 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.

Welcome to Rat's Roster! This simple app allows you to create and store all of your characters across all of your 5e campaigns. Whether you're a Player or a Game Master, this app will make character management easier. In this app, you can store your characters' details, combat stats, abilities, skills, equipment, spells, feats, and even campaign notes! I created this app for me and my buddies. After a friend of mine continually forgot to bring his character sheet to our sessions, I decied enough was enough. It was time to build him a permanent character sheet on his phone that he couldn't forget. I've tried a varierty of these TTRPG Companion apps, and they never sat right with me. While this app will autocalculate certain things for you, such as your modifiers for skills and weapons, nothing is tied to your class or race. The end result is a beautiful, semi-automated character sheet in the best way. No gated content. No in-app purchases. Full homebrew compatibility. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have making it. Enjoy!
