I do not know about the built in hero points but this looks to be an alternative.Hero PointsEach session characters have 1 Hero Point they may spend for a benefit at any time. If this Hero Point is not spent it is lost. Additionally at the start of the campaign and each time they attain a new level characters gain 1 Hero Point, which they can retain indefinitely. A character may not have more than 5 Hero Points at any time (this includes the Hero Point they gain each session):Hero Points might also be awarded for particularly heroic and risky deeds or the completion of important events or adventures.1 Hero Point may be spent to:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Gain advantage on attack, ability check or save.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Impose disadvantage on an enemy save against one your spells or abilities.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Impose disadvantage on an enemy attack or ability check used against you.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Re-roll the damage of an attack, variable numeric effect of a spell or ability or other effect caused by you.
