Integrations

D&D 5e system (required)

The wizard’s species, class, and background choices are the system’s own advancements, and its content comes from your enabled compendiums. Custom spellcasting focuses and the advancement automation prompt are on the D&D 5e integration page.

3DS:ATLAS (required)

Hero Mancer registers with 3DS:ATLAS on startup.

• Theming. Hero Mancer’s windows use the heromancer theme unless another theme is set for the module.
• Update notices. New Hero Mancer releases appear in ATLAS’s update notices.
• Troubleshooter. The report lists the system’s enabled compendium sources. Exporting it while a wizard is open offers to include that wizard’s current build.

Spell Book (recommended)

With Spell Book active, a spellcaster created in the wizard is handed off to Spell Book for spell selection. The handoff needs at least one enabled spell compendium.

A new spellcaster first needs a GM to set up its spellcasting rules in Spell Book. The same step runs when a level-up adds a character’s first caster class and no rules exist yet. If a player finished the character while a GM is online, their client shows a waiting window with a Stop Waiting button, and the Spell Book opens there once the GM saves.

A level-up that makes a character a caster, raises its highest spell slot level, or adds cantrips puts an Open Spell Book button on the level-up chat card. Players who do not own the character do not see the button. The Auto-Open Spell Book on Level-Up setting also opens it automatically on the owner’s client.

For spellcasters, the Finalize tab has a Do not open Spell Book after character creation checkbox. A character created with it ticked also gets no Spell Book button or auto-open on later level-ups.

Tokenizer 2 (optional)

Hero Mancer supports Tokenizer 2 by MrPrimate, version 1.1.0 or newer. The legacy vtta-tokenizer module is not supported.

With the Tokenizer Compatibility setting on, the Start tab gains a Tokenize button for users allowed to upload files. It opens Tokenizer’s portrait and token editor with the character’s name and portrait loaded. Opening it again during the same build reloads the earlier layers. The art and token settings saved in the editor are applied to the new character.

Dice So Nice (optional)

With Dice So Nice active, the wizard’s ability, hit point, and wealth rolls can show 3D dice. Each player turns this on or off with the Enable 3D Dice setting. With it on, the Start tab adds a Character Dice control that saves a Dice So Nice appearance onto the finished character.

Calendaria (recommended)

With Calendaria active, the Start tab gains a birthday picker that fills in the character’s age. Hero Mancer also writes a yearly birthday note and files character-history notes on creation and level-up. See Calendaria.

Tenacity (recommended)

With Tenacity active, Hero Mancer grants motes when the wizard creates a character and each time a character levels up through Hero Mancer. Set each amount in Settings. With the creation amount at zero, Tenacity’s own starting motes apply instead. Tenacity caps every grant at the character’s mote maximum.

Don’t Forget (recommended)

With Don’t Forget active, a submission reaching the GM approval queue gives each GM a review reminder. Resolving the submission completes those reminders. Deleting a pending submission outside the queue removes its open reminders.
