Journal - custom handout templates

Hi it would tremendously handy to have custom handout templates. Templates for npc characters, locations, shops, etc.. tailored for the intended handout. for example the npc handout could have a portrait photo, a npc token that could be dragged onto the map vs having to make a handout and a character sheet. Npc template could have relationship links. my 2 cents Thanks

I should have added the system. For dnd 5E but I’m sure other systems would benefit from the addition. 

When using the D&D 5e for Roll20 (2014) character sheet, why not just use the Bio section of the NPC sheet? When you make that NPC visible to players in the journal, all they will be able to see is the Bio page. They won't see the NPC's stats unless they are given control of that sheet.

However for most of the more complex Villians I create a character sheet for them. resulting in needing a characters sheet and a handout. I've been playing with other vttps and they have different journal templates which are incredibly useful.  Especially if the GM is creating interactive map links and hyperlinking other journal entries to create more of an interactive and user friendly journal for the players. Also adds a nice immersion factor. I have the api script to do this and incorporate it into my game. However, having different handout templates with different portrait and icon locations, links for relationships. a drop and drag system for interactive shops would be amazing!

Hmm. I do the same for my major NPCs as well, and use the Bio tab of the "full" character sheet the same as described above (and some of those bio sheets contain links to other handouts). <shrug> It works for me. Others may want more.
