Your first game as a player
Join with the code, have a character, say you are coming and play your first turn.
You have been invited to a table. This guide goes from the invitation to your first roll: joining with the code, having a sheet, saying you are coming and playing your turn.
Joining with the code
- On Home press Join with a code in quick access (if you have no tables yet, the empty Home asks: «Did someone give you a code?»).
- Type the Table code and press Enter.
- On the table's cover, press Join the table. If the GM reviews seats, they will see on their Home: ask for a seat.
If the code is not valid you get That code is not valid: ask the GM for another. With an invitation link you only need to open it.
Having a character
From the quick access on Home press New character to create one, or My sheets if you already have some. The GM may offer ready-made characters to choose from; if so you will see them at the table itself.
Saying you are coming
The table cover shows the next session with two buttons: I'm in and Can't make it. The GM sees who is coming. Your upcoming sessions also appear on Home, under Your tables.
Entering the table
When the session is under way the table says so (Session in progress) and the button is Join the table. Inside you will see the map, your character bar at the bottom and the chat panel on one side.
- Your token carries your portrait; drag it to move when it is your turn.
- Your character bar (bottom) holds your actions; press one to roll.
- The table shortcuts are in Keyboard shortcuts; right-click on anything for its actions (see Right-click, ⋯ and Undo).
Your turn
In combat the table tells you it is your turn. Move, pick an action from your bar and let the GM narrate the result. If you want alerts outside the tab, turn on browser notifications (see Notices and notifications).
Tip. If the table stutters, check the look and performance settings in All settings; see Mobile, tablet and installed app.
Common problems
“I cannot enter the table.” Your request is missing: wait for the GM to accept it or use the Join the table button.
“I cannot see my token.” The GM has to have put one on the map for you; ask in the chat.
