1.The Compendium
Roll20’s Compendium is the site’s digital reference library.
The Compendium is not limited to Dungeons&Dragons.
How you use The Compendium and how much you have access to depends on your relationship with Roll20.
However, accessing more specific content requires buying expansions from the site’s digital marketplace.
The content management system has vastly improved over the years.
In the early days of Roll20, each page from a resource opened in its own little window.
Since then, a PDF viewer has made content on the site a lot more user-friendly.
The Compendiumis the top item in theToolsdropdown menu from the banner at the top of the page.
The Marketplace is its own dropdown menu.
The Character Vaultis just under the Compendium in theToolsdropdown menu.
Most expansions purchased from Roll20 also come with additional markers for NPCs.
you’re able to even create different marker sets to keep them separate from game to game.
The Token Marker Libraryis also under theToolsdropdown menu.
This is true if you know the game master, the game, and the other players.
However, it’s also true if you have the urge to play between meetings of your own party.
Some resources are from within the Roll20 ecosystem, but others are links to outside tools and sites.
it’s possible for you to also use Roll20 to learn from other passionate gamers.
The site maintains a blog that consists of a mix of site updates and gaming tips.
TheGM Hubis at the bottom of theToolsdropdown menu, while theBlogandForumare both under theCommunitydropdown menu.
The beautiful thing about Roll20 is how simple it makes them.
The platform is designed for a whole game to be playable using nothing else.
