Thursday's Children
Vaesen, Year Zero Engine | Campaign
About the adventure
“Monday’s child is fair of face Tuesday’s child is full of grace Wednesday's child is full of woe Thursday’s child has far to go, Friday’s child is loving and giving, Saturday’s child works hard for a living, And the child that is born on the Sabbath day Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay” VÄESEN is a folkloric mystery game that takes place in late 19th century's Scandinavia. The game rules are easy to learn, and the adventure is almost episodic, like Supernatural TV Show. Grab a seat to unravel the folk mysteries, and fight against the great evil behind the cases!
Game style
Theater of the Mind
“Theater of the Mind” uses little to no visuals for scene settings and combat. Instead, the narrative imagery comes from the Game Master’s descriptions and character action and movement comes from Players’ descriptions.

Shatargat did a great job of walking us through playing Alice is Missing and as a first time player to any kind of role-playing game made the game easy to play and kept things moving along while also explaining exactly what we were doing.

I joined an Operation/campaign in progress and was welcomed and not made to feel like I was an outsider FNG. I feel like the player's were equally important to moving forward and this is my first DG character and Operation. I was shell-shocked at the in game situation. It was great. Shatargat knows the game and the mythos and Foundry VTT. I'll look forward to next Saturday.

Additional details
How to prepare
Please be sure that you're available for the campaign. Be sure that you have a stable internet connection to join VTT on your PC. The only thing you need to pay for is your seat for this game. Rest is handled by me.
What I provide
I will bring you Väesen experience with official mysteries that are blend with custom events and mysteries as well.
Gameplay details
The game will have a heavier version of the game's regular themes, but I don't think that we will game much into heavy themes. Just in case, whenever you feel uncomfortable about anything, you can always use X-Cards to give a warning.
