Does it sort combatants automatically?

Yes. Whenever you add a combatant the list re-sorts by initiative, highest first, so the turn order is always correct.

Can I track hit points?

Yes. HP is optional per combatant. When set, plus and minus buttons let you apply damage or healing, and the value turns red at zero or below.

How are ties in initiative handled?

Combatants with the same initiative keep the order in which they were added, so you can break ties manually by adding the combatant who should go first slightly earlier or by nudging their initiative by a fraction.

Does the round counter advance automatically?

Yes. When Next turn wraps from the last combatant back to the top of the order, the round counter increments by one, so you always know which round you are in.

What happens when a combatant hits zero HP?

The HP value turns red at zero or below to flag a downed or dead creature. You can keep it in the list for tracking or simply stop advancing its turn.

Is the encounter saved anywhere?

No. The tracker lives only in your browser tab for the session — nothing is uploaded or stored on a server. Reloading the page clears it.

Initiative Tracker — Gera Tools

Initiative tracker for tabletop combat

Keep your Dungeons & Dragons or tabletop RPG encounters moving. This tracker sorts combatants into turn order, advances through rounds, and tracks hit points so the game master can run a fight without juggling scraps of paper.

How it works

Add each combatant with a name, their initiative roll and optional HP. The list re-sorts by initiative (highest first) every time you add someone, so the turn order is always correct. Next turn moves a highlight down the list; when it wraps from the bottom back to the top, the round counter increases by one. HP is adjusted with plus and minus buttons, and the value turns red at zero or below.

Example

You add three combatants and press Add for each:

Combatant	Initiative	HP
Goblin Archer	18	7
Fighter	15	24
Wizard	9	14

The tracker orders them Archer → Fighter → Wizard. After the Wizard’s turn it wraps back to the Archer and round 2 begins. A 5-damage hit on the Archer drops its HP from 7 to 2.

Everything runs in your browser for the session — nothing is uploaded.
