Eventide Roleplaying System

A modern, streamlined RPG system built for dynamic storytelling and immersive gameplay in Foundry VTT.

Originally built from the Boilerplate System: we thank them for our start.

🎯 Perfect For Players Who Want:

• Simple but Deep Mechanics - Five core abilities handle everything, but with rich customization
• Fast-Paced Combat  - Streamlined resolution that keeps the action moving
• Character Flexibility - Extensive transformation system and circumstantial bonuses
• Automation That Works  - Sophisticated Action Cards system eliminates tedious bookkeeping
• Beautiful Interface - Multiple visual themes and polished, modern UI

⚡ Core System Strengths

Five-Ability Elegance

No complex skill lists or overwhelming options. Acrobatics, Physical, Fortitude, Will, and Wits cover every situation while maintaining tactical depth.

Action Cards: Automate To Keep The Action Moving

• Automate Complex Sequences - Combine attacks, damage, and effects into single actions
• Themed Combat - Custom visuals and descriptions for immersive encounters  
• Smart Targeting - Automatic damage and status application with GM oversight
• Perfect for Spells & Abilities - Create reusable, consistent magical effects

Dynamic Character System

• Transformations - Complete character changes including size, abilities, and powers
• Circumstantial Bonuses - Your background matters in relevant situations
• Feature Rolls - Characters can make specialized rolls beyond the core five abilities
• Status Effects - Rich temporary and permanent character modifications

GM-Friendly Tools

• Macro Creators - Build gear, effects, and transformations with streamlined interfaces
• Combat Automation - Reduce manual work with intelligent damage and effect application
• Monster Design - Action Cards perfect for creating themed, automated monster abilities
• Adventure Integration - Tools designed for module creators and campaign builders

Creativity Matters

As a GM I find myself wanting to run by what is happening: in the moment, changing things as needed and applying effects as they happen. This system is meant to encourage such creativity. Your imagination is the limit given the numberous yet user friendly options for modifying characters. Have a cool idea for something that you'd like to see implemented? Share it in our Github or, better yet, extend the code since its LGPL. Want to know how to use the system for yourself? Check our documentation available through github and you'll see guides to using it.
