Welcome to another roundup! May your encounters this weekend be
filled with plenty of loot to manage and dragons to kill. Or, whatever
your current favored enemy of choice is. I, for one, am currently
partial toward mechs with multiple pilots. (As long as the mech has air conditioning.)
A special thank you to those who have voted for Dungeon Scrawl at the ENnies! There's still time to vote if you haven't , and if you do I'll invite you to pilot one of my mech's many, many arms. (If you haven't given Dungeon Scrawl a try yet, the weekend is the perfect time for mapmaking! )
Speaking of perfect times — the dates for Roll20Con 2025 are coming shroom , so keep an eye out!
Let's dive in:
The Loot Manager is now here , and in early access for Pros!
You can auto-generate loot using your owned D&D books, or build
custom shops and chests from scratch. It’s super handy for session prep,
but even better on the fly. Imagine your players are heading into a big
fight, and you realize they’ve only got one potion between them. Drop
in a traveling merchant at their camp, stock potions in seconds, and
keep things moving.
If you've tried it already, we'd be so appreciative if you could take a few minutes to fill out this survey
and share your thoughts! Since this feature is in Early Access,
thoughts shared during this round of feedback will widely shape the
future of how you manage your loot!

The Loot Manager is now available to Pro users in Early Access!
You can now create Shops or Treasure and fill them with loot, either by

generating loot from your enabled sourcebooks at random to build a shop
or treasure hoard quickly Check out the blog here for more details!
You can now utilize the Modifier Builder within the Features for
your Custom Backgrounds in the Builder! This means that Features can be

Added NPC defense attributes to macros - npc_immunities,
npc_resistances, npc_vulnerabilities, npc_condition_immunities. All of
these will be a comma-separated list of the relevant defenses.
