GM ownership of characters
I am using the character creation screen to make nasty NPC's for my players to face. How do I give the GM ownership of those characters so when I assign tokens to them, the token does not disappear when I save the NPC.

Right-click on them in the Character Selection window. Choose the east option (I think) that assigns them to the GM.
I never claimed to be sane. Besides, it's more fun this way.

You will need to connect to your campaign using localhost for host address. Then select the characters you don't want the players to see. This will assign you as the owner so they won't show up in the character selection window for the players.

My apologies. I normally look to see what ruleset a post is referring to. I guess I was in a bit of a rush this time.
I don't have the Rolemaster ruleset, otherwise I would look to see how easily the code would be to port over from 5e. It shouldn't be too hard to add a right-click option that denotes the owner as the GM. But I'd have to look.I never claimed to be sane. Besides, it's more fun this way.

Another feature to add to my list of missing features.

The code was pretty easy to add. I just added it with a few other changes. Hopefully it will be available within a couple weeks.

Excellent.
