	Foundry Virtual Tabletop (FoundryVTT, Foundry, FVTT) is an application for hosting and playing TTRPGs remotely over the internet. All aspects of the game can be done within Foundry- creating characters, exploring maps, rolling dice, playing background music, and more. Additionally, much of the Foundry experience is automated, so very little math has to be done by the players. [[Kelek] specifically runs on a dedicated server, so it is accessible even when the host is not online. It also has [[Modules and their Uses\|several modules]] to aid in automation and quality of life.<br>		Foundry Virtual Tabletop (FoundryVTT, Foundry, FVTT) is an application for hosting and playing TTRPGs remotely over the internet.
