Some friends wanted to start a campaign and I’m trying to digitize my character sheet. Initially I was going to use d&dbeyond so I could send my DM the character sheet digitally and make it easier for them, but I can’t pick Drow without paying for the character, for whatever silly reason. I’ve been checking out all the apps I can find on the play store and I can’t find any with Drow.

Are their any apps that give you all the character options? I’m using Android but I don’t mind switching over to my laptop (Windows/Linux). I had originally wanted an offline app but opted for online to help the DM, but since that won’t be possible anymore I could care less. Still, online apps are fine as I can just block their access to the internet or suffer the occasional ad if I really must.

    There’s an android app called 5e character sheet that has all the published options. It has an icon like a green d20.

    Edit: it’s called “fifth edition character sheet”

      So for me it’s got a red dragon icon, but I believe we have the same app. I wanted to use this one initially, but it was missing Drow, then I looked in the settings and found I could download a bunch of d&d info and Drow is an option! I think this might be what I use for Android!

      +1 for this. Keeps all of my characters nice and tidy. Whenever you level up, you pick your new abilities from a list of options, and then it’ll autofill that into your character sheet. It won’t autofill your spells, though, so I use a different app for that. The only downside is that some of the abilities for certain classes aren’t named correctly, I assume due to copyright issues. But the names are pretty clear what they’re referencing (example: Agonizing Blast = Potent Cantrip).
