Is there a way to allow someone to input text when using a macro so that it shows up inside the macro? Like, for example: &{template:pf_spell} {{name=d20 Roll}} {{Result=[[1d20+?{Modifier|0}]]}} {{Purpose=?}} I want the ? in Purpose to be a point where someone using the macro can input something to indicate what the roll is for. Is there a way to do that?

&{template:pf_spell} {{name=d20 Roll}} {{Result=[[1d20+?{Modifier|0}]]}} {{Purpose=?{Purpose?|Enter some text here.}}} You can also enter inline rolls within the prompt as well.  ;-) ie Fire Damage [[1d6]]

I'd put it in the template title to reduce more lines in the chat box: &{template:pf_spell} {{name=?{Purpose for Roll|special check}}} {{Result=[[1d20+?{Modifier|0}]]}}

Rick I. —next time, feel free to open a new Specific Use Questions thread . Rick I. said: '1' cancel out successes What constitutes a success, here? Rolling above a target number? Rick I. said: and '0' if you are specialised  get rerolled What do you mean by rerolling 0's?

rolling d10 ... 1-10 or on some dice its 1-0,  so rolling '0' or '10' same thing.. i 'spose on the roll20 system its set up as a 10.. success is detiermind when the roll is required .. usually above a 6 .. but can change depending in the difficulty.
