D&D 5e Token Sizes for Roll20 & Foundry
Pixel dimensions for every creature size — from Tiny to Gargantuan — on both platforms.
Use this D&D token size chart to find the correct Roll20 and Foundry dimensions for every creature size. Small and Medium use 1x1, Large uses 2x2, Huge uses 3x3, and Gargantuan uses 4x4 or larger.
D&D Creature Token Size Reference Table
Use the creature stat block to choose its map footprint. The pixel columns below are suggested image exports from this tool, not platform requirements.
Our standard exports are 280px and 400px. Set the occupied grid units separately in Roll20 or Foundry; more pixels do not enlarge the footprint.
| Size | Grid | Roll20 | Foundry |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tiny | ½×½ | 280px | 400px |
| Small | 1×1 | 280px | 400px |
| Medium | 1×1 | 280px | 400px |
| Large | 2×2 | 560px | 800px |
| Huge | 3×3 | 840px | 1200px |
| Gargantuan | 4×4+ | 1120px | 1600px |
For blurry artwork, check the source crop and map zoom before increasing pixels. Transparent output keeps the area outside the shape clear, but does not erase a source background. For the wrong occupied space, follow the platform steps below rather than changing the export resolution.

How D&D Creature Sizes Map to Roll20 & Foundry
In D&D 5e, token size follows the creature footprint on the grid. Small and Medium use 1×1, Large use 2×2, Huge use 3×3, and Gargantuan use 4×4+.
A five-foot square grid makes Large 2×2 and Huge 3×3. Tiny is commonly shown at ½×½. Use the standard export for Tiny and Small; there is no separate Tiny preset. The DM and game system determine footprint, not the image file.
How to Choose the Right Export Size
Choose enough image pixels for your intended display size and zoom, then configure the footprint in your VTT. Our larger presets offer more detail when the source supports it.
Identify the creature size
Check the Monster Manual or your stat block. The size category (Tiny, Small, Medium, Large, Huge, Gargantuan) is listed right below the creature name.
Pick your platform
Image resolution and map footprint are separate choices. The Export Size dropdown groups presets by platform — pick the one that matches.
Select the matching preset
For a Large creature on Roll20, pick "Large (2×2) — 560px". For the same creature on Foundry, pick "Large (Foundry) — 800px". The token exports at the exact dimensions.
Quick rule of thumb: Small and Medium usually use Roll20 280px or Foundry 400px. For Large and Huge creatures, move up to the matching 2×2 or 3×3 preset before you export.
Creature Token Size FAQ
Small and Medium creatures usually occupy 1×1 grid units. Our 280px and 400px exports are suggested image resolutions, not footprint settings.
No. These are different presets offered by this tool. Foundry grid resolution is configurable, and image pixels are independent of Token Dimensions.
Yes. Use a transparent image with enough detail for your chosen display size and zoom. Set its grid footprint independently on each platform.
For Roll20, use 560px for Large (2×2) and 840px for Huge (3×3). Our Foundry presets offer 800px for Large and 1200px for Huge. Set the footprint separately to 2×2 or 3×3 in Token Dimensions.
Use the creature stat block to choose the footprint. The table suggests image resolutions for that footprint; exporting an image never configures VTT grid units.
