5E Life Ledger

[metaldm007]

For all of you looking, the WOB Life Drain Extension in the Forge does everything that Life ledger does and more.

That is the best replacement for Life Ledger, since Life Ledger is no longer supported.

While I am using this extension, I find it a little bit less intuitive. It claims to support the steal/hsteal/maxhp effect riders on the page, but they don't seem to be working, at least for NPC sheets. Could also be an issue with the update.

I saw your post on it, maybe they can get that working.

It works when it's applied directly to the attack's damage, if you're trying to put it in as a [DMGTYPE: steal] or [DMGBASETYPE: steal] effect, it currently does not work

I'm getting this error since lasts updates this week:

[5/13/2026 1:20:02 PM] [ERROR] Script execution error: [string "LifeLedger:..pts/manager_action_heal_ll.lua"]:10: attempt to index global 'ActionHeal' (a nil value)

The effects stops working and the system performance overall is undergraded while the extension is loaded.

*I just saw the previous msgs, the author is away from this project. =( It's a pity, it's pretty good one extension.

Life Ledger is not being updated as the author is no longer working on FG projects.

WOB: Life Drain extension does everything that Life Ledger does plus more. I've tested it greatly this last week and no issues with all the other exts.

Sucks that we have to pay for it now, but I guess it's fair.

Any tips for transferring over? Any keywords you've noticed that need updated or anything?

Wasn't there an issue with Mad Nomads character sheets extension impacting the HP display?

All keywords should be the same now.
There are some added ones, that do things but the old ones should be just fine.

I no longer use MNM stuff because of slow updates and reply.

However, you can get another EXT that does what MNM Char Sheet does, I just can't remember the name, its one of the WOB ones.

I don't see anything obvious WOB extension that dynamically updates stats etc. Which one are you referring to?
