[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 9024949, member: 29398"] I don't run online. The reason we leave character sheets with the DM is so that if you don't make the next session your character can still be played, as it's still in the field with the party. Playing online, we have to have our sheets (most of us still use paper sheets), but it means that if someone can't make a session the best the DM will have is an out of date copy. A few of us do also, but enough don't that it's not something to rely on. Does for me every time. We roll for hit points, and table convention is that all rolls are watched by someone (usually the DM). For arcane casters, their new spell(s) are randomly determined (they don't get to choose a la the WotC editions). Characters who gain new languages by level (Bards and Nature Clerics) need to roll for what the new language is. I-as-DM also need to determine training costs and timing. We use it for the online game I play in; but otherwise the sooner I can get Discord off all my devices the happier I'll be, as I find it has a nasty habit of inserting itself into other things e.g. it keeps taking over and resetting the sound settings on my desktop.
