Drag and Drop Monster Character Sheets With Token Actions / Macroes?

Yeah I've been searching this forum and looking up youtube videos on the subject of how to make custom enemy tokens with token actions and I think I have become pretty proficient at it. For my campaign I made a few monster units but I have found that its pretty time consuming. I looked through the forums and have found out about the compendium which seems like it would be useful. I mean am running a 5e game and the monsters are all the same so my question is Is it possible to drag and drop a monster pre-made with filled out character sheet on the field? if so will the monster have pre-made token actions for me to roll and are how comprehensive is it? things like saving throws, death throws, initiative, attack rolls, damage? will they be able to be customized as necessary? I know a lot of those features are I believe part of the subscriptions so I totally would not mind springing 5 or 10 bucks a month for some really useful features in my games, especially if they really speed up the process and get the story moving. Last question, if I do spring for the subscription will my players be able to reap the benefits aswell? As in if I set them up with a sheet they will be able to use it?

Is it possible to drag and drop a monster pre-made with filled out character sheet on the field? I'm not quite sure I understand completely what you are asking, but yes you can drag pre-made monsters/npcs onto the map, but there aren't any tokens by default for the SRD monsters. If you have a character journal by the same name as the SRD monster, it will use your journal entry for the token. if so will the monster have pre-made token actions for me to roll and are how comprehensive is it? things like saving throws, death throws, initiative, attack rolls, damage? The SRD does not have an token actions for the monsters/npcs due to the SRD not containing any token information. Same as the previous answer, if you have a pre-existing journal entry that contains token actions, so will the token when dragged from the SRD. will they be able to be customized as necessary? Because these are linked to your journal and not actually the SRD, yes. I know a lot of those features are I believe part of the subscriptions so I totally would not mind springing 5 or 10 bucks a month for some really useful features in my games, especially if they really speed up the process and get the story moving. Depending on the character sheet that you use, there may already be tokenization scripts to create token actions for the monster/npcs from the SRD/Monster Manual if you have it. Last question, if I do spring for the subscription will my players be able to reap the benefits aswell? As in if I set them up with a sheet they will be able to use it? Players in games that you create would have access to all of the scripts that are used in the game.

Drag and Drop functionality exists for the D&D 5e Compendium. Just drag the entry onto the VTT and it will create a POG style token complete with character sheet.  The token doesn't have token actions preset but I believe the 5e Shaped sheet has functionality to create them via command. Yes, any sheet created via drag and drop can be edited just like any other NPC sheet. I assume you mean creating a custom sheet? Yes, your players will be able to use any sheets you as a DM create. The subscription level of the game is dependent on the creator. So if you, as the creator, become a subscriber, the players will have subscriber benefits in your games, including ad-free, Dynamic Lighting, etc..

Im sorry I do not know the terms yet, what is a VTT and POG. Also thanks for responding, so you saying I could use a pre-made sheet such as the 5e shaped sheet and then I could go to the compendium and drag a monster onto said sheet right? Then I could use the sheet and attach it to a token right? seems simple enough. One more question, so in your opinion what are some useful differences between the Plus and Pro accounts that you have tried? In the Pro we get the Roll20 API which seems pretty great like having monsters which move on their own in dungeons aswell as the F/X tool.

At Pro level you get access to scripts, which are amazing (especially if you have some knowledge of javascript or want to learn more) you also get access to the  transmogrifier  which is fantastic if you have multiple games to switch characters back-and-forth) VTT - Virtual Table Top (the map) POG - not entirely sure but I assume it means the basic image token wrapped in a circle.
