Settings

Open Settings → Ember Vault, or type /settings in a note.

Bestiary#

• Include the Nimble bestiary: the 525 bundled monsters. Turn it off if you only want your own. A note in your vault with the same name as a bundled monster always replaces it.
• Nimble slash commands: show the Nimble commands in the / menu.
• Open Spotlight with Cmd/Ctrl+K: off until you turn it on. Spotlight then shares the key with Obsidian's Insert Markdown link: Spotlight when nothing is selected, a link when text is.

Campaigns#

• Campaigns folder: where New campaign creates its folders.
• Link NPC names as you read: underline NPC names and aliases in a campaign's notes, with a hover preview. Your files aren't changed.

Party#

Your heroes: name, class, level, max HP, Defense and max Wounds. This is the party used outside a campaign. Inside one, the campaign's own party is used (edit it from the Campaign panel).

Notes#

• Styled tables: rounded corners, a tinted header and zebra rows for every table in your notes.

Stat blocks#

• Stat block style: Book or Compact.
• Clickable dice: make dice expressions in notes and stat blocks rollable.
• Nimble attack rolls: attack dice miss on a 1 and explode on their max.
• 3D dice: throw physical dice across the screen. Choose finishes and colours for the primary die, the other dice and crit dice, turn on 3D dice on phones if you want them there too, and use Test crit to preview an explosion chain. See Dice.
• Keep the screen on during combat: for phones and tablets, while combat is running.

Encounters#

• Multiple encounters: keep several fights in the tracker and switch between them.
• Apply monster armor automatically: subtract Medium (−10) and Heavy (−20) armor from typed damage. Crits ignore armor.
• Minion overkill: one more minion drops for each full die of damage.
• Party size when no party is set: used to rate encounters until you add heroes.
• Custom conditions: add your own conditions, with a name and the rules text the tracker shows.
