Glossary

The words Roliando uses on screen: table, campaign, system, sheet, token, workshop, bazaar, levels and more.

The words Roliando uses on screen and in these guides, in alphabetical order. Each one says where you see it.

If this is your first time you do not need to learn it all: most of these words appear on screen with an explanation when you need them. This list is for looking things up when a guide mentions something you do not recognise, and so that the GM and the players talk about the same things. Bold words in the guides are always the names of buttons or tabs exactly as they appear in the interface.
