To my knowledge DLR doesn't have any archetypes you can drag and drop, archetypes in DLR were just text descriptions of possible characters

What @Doswelk said. The "problem" with some Savage Worlds products is they use the term "archetype" but it means different things in different products. In many (especially older, like Deadlands) products "archetypes" were just lists of character concepts; essentially what you get in the beginning of the Makin' Heroes chapter of the DLR Players Guide. New products use the term "archetype" to mean a partially/mostly finished template for a character or NPC, and that's what the ruleset supports in the Archetypes window.

Pinnacle did produce the Heroes o' Gloom Archetypes PDF which is pregenerated characters but I don't think that has been converted for Fantasy Grounds usage.

Grim Prairie Tales is probably my favorite resource for DLR - it is good for tossing out a couple of smaller adventures while everyone finds their giddyup. I probably played out 1/3 of the tales in it.

My guys have been in THE FLOOD for like a year now and we're slowly wrapping up that campaign. There is a ton of material in between the covers and sometimes a few paragraphs leads to several hours of misadventure. I bought the hard cover too and have been glad to have it. All of them have been on death's door a couple of times - and one player had his ticket punched.

Anyhow, hope you have a good time with it.
