D&D 5E (2014) What online character sheets

[azegoca]

What do you use?

I used an android spellbook app when I last played a spellcaster, and I've hooked the rest of my group into using it for their characters (all of whom are playing spellcasters right now while I'm the odd gnome out with my battlemaster)

I have always used a blank sheet and pen and pencil for everything else.

But I'm also currently using a very alpha version of a character sheet app I'm very slowly building in my spare time.

Nothing beats good old paper and pencil.

Digital character sheets are not allowed at any of the tables I play/DM at.

Roll20 all the way nowadays. For a while I started by using the form-fillable pdfs.

Do you have a specific reason for that? That info is as interesting as the poll itself to me.

The EN World Mobile client doesn't support the polling function. If you happen to be able to log on to the web client and vote, that would be greatly appreciated!

I haven't found an iOS app that I like yet, but that is what I would use if I could find one. I want my table as clear of paper as possible during play. We look up spells and such either on phones or the tv(has a PC hooked up to it), I have my DM tablet with multiple tabs of Compendium and pdfs, regional and world maps are blown up on the tv unless we have a high quality printed map, my notes are all in a smallish notebook. Only thing missing is character sheets on our phones instead of printed out.

I am surprise that you don't have HeroLab listed. That is one of the most common charactersheet creation and management products out there.

Maybe it is not an "online tool" but neither is pen and paper, PDF, or Android/iOS

Since HeroLab was PC only and didn't support 5e until last year, I honestly forgot about it. Also, I haven't encountered anyone that uses it in the past few years of playing, so it wasn't top of mind. I suspect a lot of these are going to be local peaks of people playing together. For instance, my groups are either 100% DiceCloud or DiceCloud and Fight Club. Others in the past have been completely Roll20. I think that's going to be common.

I did include an "other" option to catch these, because I'm sure I have forgotten about several.

I'll start the computer for that. Without your reply I wouldn't even know it included a poll...

Edit: So, now I've started the PC and voted.
