It's a little too automated or hand-holdy during the creation process. However, from experience running a youth group/table, Beyond can leave new players a little confused about what features they have versus what spells they have versus what feats they have. I see a lot of people stomping for Beyond in the comments, and Beyond probably is the standard at the moment. If you are playing by Discord, Avrae is my preferred bot and connects to DnDBeyond or to a Google sheet. If you're going to play on a virtual tabletop like Roll20 or Foundry, use their sheets. I guess it really depends on how you are going to play. Is there any free websites you know of that is free, has all the core 5e material (at least), is easy to use, and lets players put in their custom rolls (we use 4d6 drop lowest)? Though contrary to what I just said, it would be even cooler if you could print the sheet out so one can have a physical copy. I don’t know if every kid has a printer at home too, let alone paper, so I can’t rely on that method. If each kid printed out a character sheet (which is going to be difficult as it is), it’s going to be hecka hard and will take forever to tell them what to write into each of their character sheets. I thought about it, and realized I have no idea. I got this question asking how we are going to make our character sheets. So, we organize them into multiple groups with their own DM. You can compared the club to a west marches campaign style because it’s mostly improvised and there’s going to be a lot of players.

I’m bringing back a d&d club at my school, but it’s going to be completely online so we can social distance.
