An event handler allows response to game events, without having to attach scripts directly to objects. Instead, the scripter uses [[SetEventHandler]] to register a [[User Defined Function]] as a handler for a specific event. When an event occurs during gameplay, NVSE will invoke any handlers that correspond to it, passing information about the event to their function through its arguments.

Each event expects its handlers to accept a specific set of arguments. The in built events, including any required arguments (listed in the order in which they should appear in the function definition) are listed in the table below. In addition, [[User Defined Events]] are possible.
