A roll20 macro that uses the modifiers from the Dungeon World charchar sheet.

A roll20 macro that uses the modifiers from the Dungeon World charchar sheet.

A roll20 macro that uses the modifiers from the Dungeon World charchar sheet. It’s not the most elegant thing in the world, but it’s a start.

Select your token, follow the prompts, and it will roll 2d6+ the relevant modifier. Then, it will show the text from the basic moves for the 10+ and 7-9 bands. Note: The Aid or Interfere move is not included because I ran out of time/i can’t find a start for it on the character sheet. I made a separate macro for it to keep it simple until I can spend some time with it.

If anyone else has some good nachos/prettier ones/more efficient ones, I’d love to see them.

Here it is… Just copy and paste it into a new macro and you’re good to go. 🙂 ***See comment below for a buggy bug.

  1. Maybe it’s just me, but when I use this copied and pasted into a macro I have a few issues. I can only select a few options in the drop down, H&S, Volley and all of Defy Danger, but nothing else.

    Then, regardless of what I select, it rolls dice for every move and displays text for every move.

    I like the idea though, but probably wouldn’t use it with my group as they have their macros all setup with their bonuses and everything.

  2. Thanks for trying it out! I know that when I would try to edit the macro after saving it, I would have the same error. It seems that Roll20 removes some of the “coding elements” like , that allows the Defy Danger prompt to be nested. One should (theoretically) be able to paste in the macro from above, save, and have it work. If not, I don’t know. 🙂 Thanks, again!
