Some friends wanted to start a campaign and I’m trying to digitize my character sheet. Initially I was going to use d&dbeyond so I could send my DM the character sheet digitally and make it easier for them, but I can’t pick Drow without paying for the character, for whatever silly reason. I’ve been checking out all the apps I can find on the play store and I can’t find any with Drow.
Are their any apps that give you all the character options? I’m using Android but I don’t mind switching over to my laptop (Windows/Linux). I had originally wanted an offline app but opted for online to help the DM, but since that won’t be possible anymore I could care less. Still, online apps are fine as I can just block their access to the internet or suffer the occasional ad if I really must.
Thanks for all this! I’ll share it with my DM and see what he thinks.
As someone who has DM’d both, I can vouch for Pathfinder being the more well-designed game (and also it is totally free, unlike D&D). That said, there’s nothing really virtuous about playing one over the other. You play whatever the majority of your playgroup is open to playing, or whatever your DM wants to run.
