How do I make Character Sheets for my players as a DM

1546928016

Edited 1546928153
So my plan for my campaign is to give my players character sheets that they will be playing in the game and them not seeing until the time comes. Essentially my characters will be themselves but pulled into another dimension when they be different people and I do not want them to create their own as I am basing this on a game universe and want to keep that part a secret. Is there a way I can create character sheets as a DM then give them to players once the time comes?

The only time player's can see and/or control a character sheet is once the GM assigns the appropriate permissions.&nbsp;<a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal#Bio_.26_Info_Tab" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal#Bio_.26_Info_Tab</a>
But I am wondering how to create a character sheet as a DM, as this is my first time on Roll20 as a DM.

Thanks for the clarification.&nbsp; When you create a game, you will choose which sheet you want to use for your game.&nbsp; Once you save and open your game, you can add+ as many character's as you need.&nbsp; As your player's enter your game, you can assign them permission to see the bio only of the character journal or give them complete control of the sheet.&nbsp; You can do this at anytime. (or even remove permissions...). More info on adding characters&nbsp; <a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/Journal</a> &nbsp; By default, the player's will not see anything in their journal tab on the sidebar. They will not have control of a character sheet, handout, or tokens placed on the map.&nbsp; Only the GM can assign permissions to such things.
