Create a macro (token action) called "BlindChecks" with the action "!BlindChecks." Give all your players access to it. With a single token selected, player clicks the macro. Link to the Code Player sees the following in the chat. GM sees the following in the chat. GM should use the left dice result for non-"advantage/disadvantage" situations. Or pick the appropriate dice result for "advantage/disadvantage" situations. Rogue:  I look into the room to see if it seems safe. GM:  Blind roll please. Rogue:  [blind rolls] GM:  Seems perfectly safe to you. Rogue:  I step to the side and say to the rest of the party "After  you ."

What's this?  Gauss and then Stephen  both post to the forums within the last week...  Must be a shift in the time space continuum.  A surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one. This script fills an often requested feature.  I might try and hack modify this to work with PF...
Very nice, my players will like this. They asked me to do GM rolls of their skills for certain rolls that they don't want the know the result. Like navigating through a forest and getting lost because they roll low on their survival roll. This will still let them roll their fate but not know the results :)

Aaron berated me into cacheing some values to speed it up and to help with efficiency (he even wrote a code sample leaving me without excuses.) Also making it so you can use it blind or in the open. Update likely tonight.

Updated the script.... blind rolls have DMG look... open rolls have PHB look
Would it be possible to adapt it for pathfinder ?
I love this script!

Excellent work, Stephen. Honestly, this is one of those things I didn't realize I needed as a DM until you pointed out that I needed it as a DM. :) Thank you!
