For most people, D&D time is chill time and I don't want to let The Stressful Topic You Can't Get Away From intrude on that. So I'll just leave it at this: my game needs to go online. And that means I need to learn to DM on Roll20. The question I have is: Where do I start?

There's a lot out there to learn from, which is good, but it also means there's a lot to sort through and, since we're not talking about 5-minute videos, I'd appreciate any suggestions you might have on what video series or tutorials helped you learn the basics and got you to the point where you felt comfortable running a game. 

While I'm sure there's a strong case to be made for Fantasy Grounds, I've used Roll20 as a player, so I feel like it'd be easier for me to learn. Still, if you have suggestions for learning FG, please do post them. I'm far from the only DM looking to take their game online right now and some people might be more interested in learning Fantasy Grounds.

So, the tokens. They're not the fanciest tokens out there, but I wanted to keep them simple so they'd look good shrunk down. The top row is my party. Starting from the left, there's the gnomish druid, the dwarven paladin, the elven wizard, the monk, the ranger and the halfling rogue.

The second row is alternate versions for anyone who might need darker-skinned characters. Or, in the case of the monk, lighter-skinned (our monk is Zakharan). The third and fourth rows are drow/duergar and greenskins, which are the other two common D&D skin tones. These are super easy to recolor, so I thought I'd try to make them as flexible as I can. Anyway, I hope you like them and thanks in advance for any advice.

I freaking hate roll20. With you map talent, you should aim high and create something immediately playable. Maybe consider collaborating. https://youtu.be/cEkh2C7tfuM

Immediately playable? I'm not sure what you mean. That is quite a setup, by the way! Looks like a fun way to run a game.

Patreon doesn’t seem to be able to let me reply to replies, but Kenneth Schleich responded to my comment about Roll20 being hard as an underpreparing DM that is fantastic. I’m not sure if you got notified, but it’s very much worth reading.
