Creature Handouts that come with Monster Manual

I would love to see Creature Handouts included with purchase of the 5E Monster Manual (and other creature supplements), similar to the handouts seen in 5E Adventure Modules. I am currently having to manually upload images for creature handouts every time my players encounter a new monster, and I think the inclusion of these handouts by Roll20 would help many a DM improve the game for their players! Thank you! ^^

This is a great idea. The handouts already exist, just collect them up and make them an addon that comes with the purchase of the monster manual. +1

HOLY HECK YES! Upvoting this to the max!

Alternate idea: Just put the pic in the creature description, and all the rest of the description in the GM Info section. Then you can just click the “Show to Players” button on the existing creature sheet, and not have to double the number of items in the journal.

You can simply show the bio to the players (just edit away any text about rules etc you don't want them to read)

Although currently I just right click the image>copy image> go to discord and post in the general chat... But not all my players have dual screens...

These are all great workaround suggestions! ^^ Though the main reason I posted this suggestion wasn't because I had difficulty showing my players images - rather I simply love the format in which creature handouts are presented in the various different 5E Adventure Modules, and was hoping to have access to those handouts for creatures from the Monster Manual, etc.

Agreed, I like the idea of having a "Codex" for the monsters that my groups have encountered. Like a D&amp;D version of catching all the Pokemon. ^_^ Plus the formatting would appease my sense of consistency. :)

visibility bump - I love the handouts that come the the modules, I use them to contain monster knowledge for my adventure's and it irks me that I have to make my own, that aren't consistent with my others :( even though I have purchased the MM.

Now that you are or soon will be actively working on updating to the 2024 Monster Manual, please keep this suggestion in mind! :-) I still prefer my option above of being able to share the creature bio with just the pic visible (all other info in GM-Only), to avoid extra handouts in the journal, but any of these solutions is better than none.

So some context here, Monster Manual type books do not usually have handout-like sections in the print version while Adventures do have handout-like sections in the print version.&nbsp; Content Converters only convert what is in the content to a Roll20 format. They generally cannot create content. This is why in some adventures you will see some creatures with no image, just a "placeholder" token with the name of the creature. There was no image included in the adventure.&nbsp; Between these two things, this is the reason Monster Manual type content does not have that.&nbsp; With that said, I think an excellent suggestion would be to enable the Avatar (not token) to be displayed similar to how the token is (via Shift+Z). This would solve your problem.&nbsp; Alternately, as others have stated, you can display the Bio &amp; Info tab. Many of those include an image. Just the text will need to be relocated to the GM section.
