I've heard of players needing a DM but am I the first DM to need players?

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/DMAcademy

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • TokenTool

    TokenTool removes much of the tedium from creating tokens for use with MapTool or your favorite online gaming application. Just drag an image into the background, select a frame, zoom and pan to suit, and drag off a finished token. The resulting token is transparent around the edges and cropped to the size you wanted.

  • MapTool is pretty old school but still usable with some work. The best thing out of that project, though, is the associated tool TokenTool which makes it very easy to create usable player/monster token images out of whatever artwork you can find.

  • roll20-character-sheets

    Character sheet templates created by the community for use in Roll20 VTT. Submit a ticket at roll20.net/help if critical hotfixes are to be requested.

  • Roll20 - Virtual Table Top(vtt): Allows virtual maps and tokens(representations for players/mobs/NPC), and turn order for fights and manual rolls. DnD Beyond - Character creation, sheet, and a place to store notes, history, and encounter creations. Beyond20 - Addon that links DnD Beyond and roll20, so you can roll in DnD Beyond and have it show up in roll20 (It's available for Chrome and Firefox, from the creator KaKaRoTo).
