Different tokens for same NPC

So I have purchased Descent into Avernus, and while I love the fact that all tokens are ready on the map, I want to change so that the female pirate Tarina does not look like a male dwarf (probably the default Bandit token). Is this possible?

Absolutely.  Just drag in a token you like for it, and set it to represent the same character.  Alternatively, you can duplicate the character and do the above selecting the copy, then set that token as the default on the copy. Finally, you could create a Rollable Table with both tokens as items, create a Rollable Table Token from it, then configure it as the character and set it to be the default token, then you can drag it out as needed and select whichever side you want from the right click menu.

Absolutely. 1 Upload new token Options: a. If you want to change a single token, Just edit the token and associate it with the Bandit NPC. Delete the old token b. If you want to change it so that dragging out any new instance of Tarina, assign that edited token to be the new default token for the Bandit NPC sheet c. If you want to change it throughout the module, I'm going to defer to the Aaron, to make sure I don't screw up the command, but I believe the token-mod script can change all existing tokens.

Oop. Sniped. But Aaron, am I correct in assuming that token-mod can do this?

You are correct, provided the new image exists in a User Library, and not in the Marketplace.  For Marketplace Images, you would need to download the image, then upload it to a user library first.  The easiest way to then change every token that represents a given character is by dragging the new image onto the tabletop, then running this command and clicking the new graphic: !token-mod --set imgsrc|@{target|New Image Source|token_id} --ids @{Some Character Name|character_id} Replacing "Some Character Name" with the name of the character you want to change. You'll then need to add one of them as the Default Token on the character, if you care about that.  You can do it with TokenMod (though there are a few properties for the new bars that don't get preserved unless you do it manually).  Select one of the tokens and run: !token-mod --set defaulttoken

Thanks. I was almost there, but my answer would have missed a crucial step in the assignment.
Apologizes both for the super late reply, but thank you!  I went with the duplicate option for Tarina.
