Invisible Player Tokens

Score + 13
It would be cool to be able to set a token to "invisible" so that only the GM and that player can see it. When an enemy goes invisible, I can just move it to the GM layer where only I can see it. But if a player goes invisible, we give it an invisible marker to note this, but everyone can still see it on the map. Which, unintentionally leads to players trying to act around that token, like not dropping an AOE where the invisible is, forgetting that you don't actually see that person. 
As a pro member, there is a mod call bump to do this.
You can do something similar by using a rollable token. Create an invisible token, and put that and the character token into a rollable token using rollable tables at the bottom of the collections tab.  Pull a copy onto the VTT and attach it to the character sheet in the usual way.  You can then select it and as gm you can choose which side is displayed, the token side or the invisible side.  You can add an aura that only you can see to the invisible side. The player can still click on it to select and move it, if the player can find it, but even the player cannot see it.

True, however we have name tags on so we'd have to turn those off on that token when it goes invisible. Overall, not a terrible work around though. Might give this a shot
