About the adventure
Something is stirring beneath the mountains. Old mining towns carry whispers no one wants to repeat. Winter clings too long to forgotten places. Ancient customs survive in the dark, and the line between folklore and truth grows thinner with every step north. What begins as a single investigation becomes a journey through a Mythic North haunted by memory, ambition, and things older than history. The mountains have not forgotten. And somewhere beyond the last light, something is waiting to be found. Vaesen uses Free League’s fast and intuitive Year Zero Engine, making it easy to learn even if you have never played before. The rules stay out of the way so you can focus on investigation, atmosphere, roleplay, and the strange mysteries waiting in the Mythic North. No system mastery required. Learn as you play and let the mystery pull you in. Take your seat in the Society and see what lies beyond the mountains.

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.

How Shatargat creates a safe table
Check the CW list, be sure that you're okay with them. It won't be an extremely explicit game since Vaesen's mood is not that heavy. Still, if you ever feel that a scene starts to disturb you, please let me know. We are all friends here!
