Characters
The Manage Characters tool is your at-a-glance view of the Characters in the campaign, both player-created and NPC. It is divided into 3 sections: Party, Current Area, and All Characters.
Party
Party contains the characters that have been assigned to a player. If a token is assigned ownership when in the Character Edit Window it will be considered "In the party."
Current Area
The Current Area section contains all the characters that are currently present on the map you are viewing. Upon changing to a new map, this section will be updated to only show characters on the new map.
While this section is called Current Area, the title of that section will change to reflect the name of the map it's showing characters for.
All Characters
This section shows any characters that are not currently shown in either Current Area or Party.
