But doesn't solve the issue that if the player buys the books for themselves, you probably just have to ask them not to use it.Edit: when I start a campaign, I make a list of what I want toggled on and off on that page and send it to all the players - it only takes a minute. And we review at Session 0.See my note above: players have always been able to access outside material, and DMs don't have the right to control what players can or can't buy. And players have always been able to put whatever they want on their character sheets. D&D operates on an assumption trust but verify, and the DM has the right to take appropriate steps if players are cheating or going beyond the scope of the campaign.At least with DDB, you can access the character sheets at any time. I do occasionally run into shenanigans when newbies discover they can give themselves any magic item, edit all of their skills, etc. One even gave her character a burrowing speed, lol. I just corrected the sheets and had a chat with the players about how the game works.</blockquote>
