A Treaty of Blood
(Vaesen)
Ran by Chris Tatum
Level: Beginner
Characters: Pregens provided
Description:
Come play Vaesen, a rules-light, Nordic Folk Horror tabletop roleplaying game (TTRPG) with a heavy focus on roleplaying!
The Pravda Society has received an invitation to the Bralnic Valley, deep in the Carpathian Mountains, from Knez Vlad the Tenth. A mysterious beast is ravaging the countryside and the Society is the Knez’s only remaining option to help find and capture it. To date, it has eluded all normal forms of tracking and capture, and the nature of the attacks doesn’t conform to anything natural. TRIGGER WARNINGS: Violence, Blood, Abuse, Murder
Snakes of the Scarlet King
(Forged in the Dark)
Ran by Devin Deaton
Level: Beginner
Characters: Pregens provided
Description:
In the small city of Stockton, Missouri, anomalous events have been occurring that have caught the attention of the SCP Foundation, and the player’s department has been sent to investigate and contain any potential anomalies. According to your briefing dossier, one local resident and two tourists have seen a strange creature in the waters of Lake Stockton, a massive and deep aquifer south of town. Rumors of a “Lake Stockton Monster” are spreading through the region, attracting gawking tourists, an evangelical tent revival, and even a monster hunter crew. Your department must travel to Stockton and investigate the rumors – and if there is a creature in the lake, to contain it with as little collateral damage as possible.
Built on the robust Forged in the Dark framework, “Omnicide SCP” is a game of risky Operations and high stakes. It uses a dice pool system for action resolution, a Determination mechanic for narrative tension, and a unique Redacted Action mechanic that allows for cinematic storytelling and deep strategic gameplay. Join us, and step into the shadows. Serve humanity. Protect the world from what lies beyond. Pregen characters will be provided.
As always, drink responsibly and tip your bartender! Many thanks to Kaiju for hosting our event.
