With roll queries, only the first one pops up a window, and subsequent uses of the same prompt text use the value from the first use. With a little augmentation, this mechanism can act as a form of short-lived variable.I propose adding a means to associate a value with a prompt without displaying the window at all, but acting as though there was a window and the user answered the prompt. Roll queries already carry over from macro to macro, so to implement, it appears that all that is necessary is a means to skip the prompt and take the default value (which would not be optional in this case). Here is a use case, by simplified example: Macro "attack": /roll 1d20 + 3 + ?{Power attack?|0}*-1 vs AC /roll 1d8 + 3 + ?{Power attack?}*2 damage Macro "power-attack": ?{Power attack?|=1} #attack Macro "normal-attack": ?{Power attack?|=0} #attack So calling #power-attack essentially associates "1" with the "Power attack?" query without showing the prompt, and this value applies to the references to that query in #attack as well. With more complex macros, the usefulness increases. I'm not very familiar with how the parser works, so perhaps the syntax needs to be different, but that is the general idea.
