Blood and Honor is an automatic way to add lightweight blood effects to your campaign, without any animations or commands.

Any token in the object layer that has a bar3 (health) value less than or equal to its max has a chance to bleed. The chance goes up depending on how severe the damage is. Any time a token's health bar is changed so that it's total value is half or less of its maximum, a randomly selected, offset and rotated blood graphic will be placed on the map layer beneath it. The exact chance for a blood spatter to appear is: (max - current) / max. In other words, the percentage of missing heath is the chance to water the fields with blood. The larger the amount of damage taken at once, the bigger the spatter will be.

If a token moves while at or below half health, a smaller blood graphic will appear where it moves to based on the chances described above. Less health creates more blood. If a token's bar3 value falls to 0 or below, a large pool of blood graphic appears on the map layer beneath it.

Syntax

!clearblood

If IsGM Auth Module is installed and useIsGM is set to true, the !clearblood command will be restricted to GM use only.

The !clearblood command will move all of the blood splatter graphics to the top left corner of the map so that they can be quickly deleted.

Configuration

Adding the text noblood in any token's GM Notes will cause it to never bleed.

Add one of the following keywords into the GM Notes of a token if you want the token to bleed a color other than red: bloodcolor_orange, bloodcolor_purple, bloodcolor_blue

NOTE: YOU MUST SET YOUR OWN IMAGE URLS IN THE SCRIPT! You can put as many of either type (spatters or pools) as you wish, and it will choose from them randomly. See this page for more details.
