5e Statblock Importer

A module for FoundryVTT's Dungeons & Dragons Fifth Edition System. Easily import 5e monster and NPC statblocks into your game. As long as it's formatted using the standard WotC layout, it'll create a new actor with an NPC character sheet using those stats.

How to use

Once installed, you'll see a new button at the bottom of the characters tab that looks like this:

Clicking the button will open a window with a big text box that you can past the statblock into. Here's an example of one for a Glabrezu from the SRD.

You can parse the text with the "Parse" button (or, if the "Auto parse" option is checked, the text will be parsed automatically every time you paste it or modify it). Parsing will underline all the information that was found in the statblock, so you can check that everything is in order before importing. If you're satisfied with the preview, click the "Import" button and you'll see a new actor appear in the side panel.

Open the character sheet for that new actor and you'll see all of the stats, actions, and spells filled out for you. Everything in the statblock should be represented on the character sheet, including legendary actions and reactions (which the Glabrezu doesn't have). To have the spells show up in the Spellbook requires having the "Spells (SRD)" compendium installed, which should come with the 5e system.
