roll20-character-sheets VS fvtt-dndbeyond-character-sheet

There are other options: https://roll20.net/

I've used roll20.net up until now. They have a find group feature and a virtual table top with character sheets and dice roller included, so everything you need to play virtually is all on the one site.

We use Roll20 to play remote.

There are plenty of D&D software programs out there that are free and paid versions. Many of them with the ability to have friends join and interact with the table. As basic as Tabletop Simulator to Fantasy Grounds (both on steam that I have experience with, not an endorsement). roll20.net being a popular browser based version.

i have made a character on roll20.net that maybe border line iffy/OP, so i may have to make one that's not. my free time can be a bit unusual at times(it's 12:24AM as i write this)so someone who has similar free times as i do(if your interested let me know and we can talk times), basicly I've been listening to a DnD podcast and i think it sounds fun and i want to try it out edit: I'm in PST timezone in saskachewan so i don't have daylight savings time

I've done it. They have a GitLab project were you can submit sheets. I submitted one for Alternity's 2018 remake because no-one else had done it.

There's also the full DNDBeyond character sheet module as well as the compact one if you want that style.

If they're used to DnD Beyond, then you might be able to kill two birds (character sheet and rolling) with one stone by using the Beyond20 browser add-on (though it might need some tech savvy to install). I don't use it (nor DND Beyond) personally, but it should let them make rolls right from their DnD Beyond character sheets. Or if you'd prefer to keep things contained within Foundry, there's also a DND Beyond Character Sheet for 5E which should look a lot closer to what they already use.

If accessing the monster actions is the problem you might try the Argon HUD or change the default sheet layout to something like the dndbeyond character sheet module or monster blocks so it's more familiar

I did find this module, which attempts to recreate the look of the dndbeyond sheet but has some clear differences, so there's a bit of precedent for it, but I just want to make sure I handle this properly.
