5E Life Ledger

[MrDDT]

So he must have it unlisted.

However, I threw on Charsheet Display from MNM. It's working fine with WOB: Drain Life

Thanks for checking. Do you know what the plan will be for 5.5e automated effects? What will that use for MAXHP?

Should be no change for 5eAE 2024 (5.5e)
MAXHP: n (this will add n to the MAXHP in the ADJ window, and be reflective in the CT MAX HP block) you can add this as an effect.
maxhp (this will still be a damage type) you can use this to add to a damage type to reduce creatures max hp on hit. Example, DMG: 3 fire, maxhp (this leaves no effect in the CT, but will update the ADJ on the NPC/PC sheet and correctly update the CT MAX HP block)
WOBMAXHP: n (this works just like MAXHP however, it's used in WOB: Drain Life ext and will stack itself, so each new effect that takes from WOBMAXHP or adds to WOBMAXHP will only have 1 effect listed that gets updated)


WOBMAXHP: n

Example of this is say you have a creature that steals life using the DRAIN: LIFE then you do necrotic damage, it will update the WOBMAXHP: n each time life is drained, while also still updating the CT MAX HP block and the ADJ block on the NPC/PC sheet)

Feel free to reach out to me for more questions.

OK so WOB is going to be needed for 5eAE 2024 for aid to work correctly. That is what I wanted to know. Thanks.

If someone gets Life Ledger working, then they will share the same wording so LL or WOB would be need. But with LL broken, we need those tools to automate too much stuff so we going to use WOB's stuff. Lucky the wording is the same so if ever LL gets working again, it will be seamless to no longer require WOB.

That is fine. I didn't want to buy WOB unnecessarily if there were other plans like putting MAXHP in BCEG or something to have everything needed in one place.

WOB: Life Drain extension does everything that Life Ledger does

Any idea if there exists any extension that doesn't use GenAI which does the Max HP adjustment? That stuff is pretty obvious on the WOB extension page and related ones, so I'm definitely not going to give them money.

Life Ledger is throwing the following error in a fresh campaign. I saw it was updated 2 days ago so I thought I'd try it. I hope this extension is restored to functionality, particularly the NPC hit dice feature. Screenshot 2026-05-21 at 11.05.41 PM.png

The original developer is no longer maintaining; but this is next up on my list to help with.

It says LL was updated 2 days ago on Forge, does this has to do with what you said?
