Hi SnailMail, There two places you might consider placing those: The first is Character Abilities, which are attached to a Character in the Journal Tab. Character Abilities can be flagged as Token Actions, which allows you to access them whenever you select a token representing that Character. Character Abilities can reference Character Attributes without specifying the Character and it will implicitly use the Character they Ability is on. This makes it easier if you have standard commands you want to copy between multiple Characters. See the wiki here for more info: <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal#Abilities" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal#Abilities</a> The second is Macros, which are found in the Settings Tab. Macros are usually shown in the Macro Bar, which can be turned on in the Settings Tab as well. In a Macro, you just explicitly specify any Attributes you are referencing by prefacing them with the Character Name or other methods. Macros are always show regardless of which tokens are selected. See the wiki here for more info: <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Macros" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Macros</a> For the details of 4th Edition DnD powers, you'll need to consult the Game Handbook where they appear. However, there is a section of the wiki devoted to 4th Edition DnD, where other users have shared their tips and tricks: <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Dungeons_and_Dragons_4th_E" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Dungeons_and_Dragons_4th_E</a>...
