Foundry Graph is a powerful and intuitive module that lets you visually map relationships between actors, scenes, items, or any other entity in your world. Whether you're managing political intrigue, faction conflicts, character connections, or ancient bloodlines, this tool gives you a dynamic canvas to build, edit, and explore complex networks.
Maps can be grated using real world and fantasy georeferenced data, overlaid with pins and areas (both could also be Actors or Journal Pages).
Timelines can be designed to map story arcs
✨ Features
- Interactive Graph Builder: with drag-and-drop node placement and zoom/pan support.

- Link & Node Management: Easily link or unlink entities, edit metadata, and delete with a right double-click.
- Background Support: Set a background image for your graph to anchor it in a visual context (maps, floor plans, etc.) [at the moment linked to the graph type, but planned to make it custom].

- Symbols for specific graph types like the Cyber Matrix one.
- Create maps using Google-maps like tools; overlay pins and areas and export the graph as a scene - even with a precise 5-foot scale
