James H. said: The question I have, is if I create game and make someone else the GM can they use those features (even if they are a free member)? Furthermore, can there can be multiple GMs on a game? [...] If I were to make him a GM he would be able to add entries to the
Journal which included all of our variables and modifiers, but I would
also want to still have rights to add my own journal entries and edit
and update my world lore? Yes to all of the above. The Creator of a campaign is always considered a GM (i.e. cannot be demoted to a player).

A Co-GM will not have access to the original Game‘s Creator‘s
image library, character journals, handouts, decks, rollable tables,
and other games' pages, however those elements that are being used
within the game are available to the Co-GM. Images that are being used
within the games' pages can be manipulated by the Co-GM as long as they
remain within the game editor. If the Co-GM removes any of these shared
elements they will not be available unless the Game‘s Creator restores them to play.
