This script is designed to output content to the chat window.

!describe @{selected|token_id}

This command takes a token and outputs information about it to the chat. It has a number of different modes of operation, depending on the type of token.

If the token represents a character, then the name of the token, the character's avatar and bio description will be output to the chat window for everyone to see. This can be used to quickly present a portrait and information on a character without having to share the character in a pop-up window.

If the token has no associated character, and it starts with a numeric identifier and a colon (e.g. “1:Airlock”) then the GM Notes field will be output to the text chat. This can be used to describe rooms or locations on a map.

This was originally designed for Pathfinder where map exploration was common. In Traveller, it can also be used for planets. For example, prefix a planet name with the map coordinates such as “1621: Berlichingen” to output information on a planet or system.

Unlike handouts, it can contain multiple images by embedding an image or handout reference into the text.

<<My Handout>>
<<https://www.notasnark.net/_media/traveller/goldenage/roll20/berlichingen.png>>

The first of these will look for a handout named “My Handout”, and insert the graphic from that handout. The second will load an image directly from the URL given.
