Token Question

Hello, I was wondering is there a way to tie multiple Tokens (Let's say a Zombie) to a character journal, so that i can drag and drop them from the journal, yet have their Bars(radials) be effected separately? My current example. I have a journal with stats/HPs/ Macros for zombies, I will be using a lot of them. I can currently drag them from the character journal set up as Zombie. I can then have my radials represent HP, but when I subtract/add to one it effects all of them. Do I need to just avoid the journal and have them as generic tokens? Thank in advance for any help.
Yay, another chance to post my helpful link: Linking Tokens to Journals

Thank you Phnord, lol truly appreciated :) You should post it more! Had to edit to say that should be a Sticky, because if one doesn't follow your steps it will not work! lol Thank you again my friend.
Glad to help!
There are too many stickies already...
Could maybe link to it in the Token Feature's article. <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Token_Features" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Token_Features</a>
Well at the least what Mark suggested, but there is only one sticky in this sub-forum so... Either way, it's something so simple, yet so frustrating if your not pointed to how to do it. And so far this is the only reliable way I know of doing it.

By the looks of things, that wiki page that Phnord created should probably be integrated into the token features page. Though I think creating term words to differentiate unique characters and generic NPCs isn't a good way to go about things. Especially since the term "mook" is used as a very specific game term in at least one RPG that I am aware of (Fate).

13th Age also uses mook, and got it from Feng Shui. I'm using Stars (the PCs), Guest Stars (named NPCs with journals), and Supporting Cast (everything else).
