This is really neat! I’ve been working on a “shell” that I use for running RPG games in python. I might have to see if I can piggyback off of this.

Can you elaborate on the „running RPG games in python“ please?

Sure.. basically i've been fiddling with creating a 'shell' that lets me at the simplest level do something like this:

  roll 1d20
  You rolled an 18
  roll goblin.attacks.shortsword
  You rolled an 4 on 1d6.
  apply roll goblin.attacks.shortsword to character.hp

The other part will be that it'll let me connect into a foundry instance and have the chat/rolls show up on my terminal.

Thanks for elaborating. Sounds pretty cool actually. Do you have it on GitHub or something?

Not yet. I should sometime soon but life/family/work keeps coming up.

If you want you can drop an email to Sam at phin.tech and I can email you if/when it comes out.
