We make inventory and item tracking quick and easy! There are various components involved in inventories, read more in-depth about each of them in the sub-guides below.

Party and Player inventories function the same way. The main inventory screen will show all of your items and containers. Any items not in a container will appear at the top, with the containers (and items within) ordered below them. If you have multiple character inventories or containers created, you will see an extra panel at the top titled "Your Inventories". You can access your other character inventories by clicking their name in this box.

To filter the current inventory by container, click any of the container buttons under "Filter By Container" to view only those items.

Game Master View

If you are a GM, you will see an extra button in this top panel. By clicking the orange "View Player Dashboards or Inventories" button, you will open a modal listing all your players as cards. From here you can click a player name to go to their dashboard, or click the blue "Player Inventory" button to view that player's inventory.

Containers help organize your items within an inventory or shop.

Adding a Container

To add a container, click the green "New Container" button at the top of any inventory or shop. Give it a name and select an image to use as the icon. Entering a number in the order box denotes how the containers will display within the inventory. If you are a GM, you can make a container secret, which will hide it from players (even if it is within their player inventory). Click the blue "Create Container" button when you are done.

Editing a Container

To edit a container, click the small green "Edit Container" button to the far right of the container title on the inventory page.

Adding Items to Containers

There is a small green "Add Item" button to the far right of the container title on the inventory pages. You can also select the container in the Container dropdown on the item form. Using the "Add Item" button next to the container will automatically fill the dropdown for you.

Transfer a Container

You can also move an entire container of items at once by clicking the small orange "Transfer" button in the top bar of the corresponding container. This allows you to quickly move a set of items all together to another player or shop, etc.

Inventory container buttons

There are a lot of options for item tracking. Add items that you loot during your campaign, edit them with new details as you inspect them further. You can also use, sell and transfer items as needed. We go more in depth for each option below.

You can also select a container for the item from the dropdown. For more information on containers, see: Inventory Containers.

The Item Tags checkboxes are used to label items for various circumstances such as "Consumable" or "Quest". These labels appear on the item cards to help you visualize what items are for more quickly.

The last section of the form is where you can add an image to your item. If you are on a Knight, Monarch, or Deity tier, you have access to our Image Library. The image library has a large selection of high quality images you can choose for your items to make your inventory look amazing! We keep a preview video of our image library on this page, but please note it does not always contain the most updated selection: Image Library Preview

If you are copying an item from your item library, you can click the small orange "Quick-copy" button on one of the item cards to make an exact duplicate with a quantity of one. You can also click the item image to open the details modal to read the description. With the details modal open, go to the Copy Item tab and use the Quantity and Inventory dropdowns to transfer a custom quantity to the selected inventory.

Quick-add Multiple Items

Another option at the top of your inventory pages is a green button labeled "Quick-add Multiple Items". This opens a condensed form that allows you to record up to five items at once. This is useful if the GM is reading loot quickly, and you want to add items to identify later. The condensed quick-add form allows you to set a quantity, name, and description. Any fields with the name left blank will be ignored.

These buttons allow you to delete the item, clone it to your item library, or edit the item.

Below this top bar you will find a set of tabs. The first tab contains the item description. If you are a GM, the next tab contains any Game Master secrets you have for the item.

When an item quantity goes down to 0, the item will remain in your inventory but will not be sellable or usable. That way, if you acquire more, you can simply edit the item to change the quantity instead of re-creating the item from scratch.

Sell Item

To sell an item from your inventory, open the item details modal and select the Sell Item tab. The currency boxes will automatically fill with the value for the item (if a value is set).

If you are a Game Master, your "Transfer to Inventory" dropdown will contain all player inventories, the party inventory, shops, and encounters. GM's can move items anywhere around the campaign.
