Usage

Work In Progress

to-do

• rank fine-tuning
• ac
• saves
• "skills" & tools
• "marks"
• spellcasting
• more categories
• default hp and stuff from {rank}
• auto-populating actions/traits/etc (as {trait}); e.g., unarmed strike
• {trait}
• treasure

why this doesn't play nice with 5e

• proficiency bonus (named "rank") replaces challenge rating; proficiency bonus scales much faster
• no alignments
• otherwise you can slap {{5e Creature}} stats into this, add a rank, and it should mostly work
