About me
Hello everyone! It's Shatargat! I'm a gamemaster with Turkish nationality, who runs his games in English since mid 2022. I'm a game designer and scenario author, and I mostly use these skills on my games. My main genre in everything is horror. I really like horror, occultism, supernatural stuff, mystery and other dark themes as well. I personally prefer heavy and extreme touches on the games, but I know that I can meet people on the common ground, and bring fun into these dark games. I'm also a content creator in my native language. And companies like Chaosium Inc., Helmgast, Free League Publishing and Renegade Game Studios support my content, and I introduce their game to my local audience. I also started to publish my own creations in English, under the name Black Dragon Tomes. My first book is YZE-inspired game called Lost Echoes. I'm also working on other personal projects, too. I believe that friendship, and, understanding and tolerating each other is the most important thing in life. Without communication, we cannot find a good place to have fun, right? BTW: If you have any special request from me (like running an extremely niche game such as Invisible Suns), you can book me with the price on my profile. I always enjoy to tryout new things, or provide specific games, but that requires more energy and work load, that's why the booking price is a little different than the regular announcements.

Creating your character
We will do a session zero and that's when you build your characters. We will create the characters, we will talk about the general game rules, and I will guide you through the interface of Foundry VTT.
We are playing the 3rd Chapter (Cairo) with this group! It's always a good time to join!
What to expect
Preparing for the session
Be sure that you can attend the game constantly. Sessions take 3 hours, may take longer or a little bit shorter depending on the scene. Be sure that you have a working PC, stable internet connection, and a decent microphone that can capture your voice clearly. Be sure that you have a working Webcam, because most of the game will be as Theater of the Mind, and it's always the best to see each other's faces. That's all. There's no any other homework for you.
What Shatargat brings to the table
I will bring an interactive interface for Foundry, an intense Call of Cthulhu experience, and ambient music.

How Shatargat creates a safe table
The game is a long, weekly campaign that is focused on investigation. You will fight against evil death cults, try to survive and save the world! Game rules are easy to understand, but session zero is needed for creating characters. Please consider this game if you want to be in a long campaign. If you feel any discomfort during the game because of descriptions, you can cut my words and notice about it, so we don't get into its details and pass the scene quickly.
