VAEL

Four unlikely heroes receive visions of the city in peril. Nothing is quite as it seems as subterfuge spreads to every corner of this magical city. Join Zongroff, Maerydyth, Torbrennan and Isadora as they race against the clock to save New Harbour City!

In the first series of set in the world of Vael (simply called Vael), Laura, Pip, Maddy and Liz take on the characters Maerydyth, Torbrennan, Isadora and Zongroff, four unlikely friends thrust into a conspiracy involving a local election, magical orbs and murder most foul. Using the 13th Age system Game Master Zack and NPC performer extraordinaire James weave a tale at the intersection of Terry Pratchett’s Discworld and Agatha Christy Murder Mystery.

After the first season wraps up it’s incredible 17 episode run, we return to Vael in various one-shots where we explore some of the deeper parts of the world and catch up with some of the much loved NPCs and some original PCs to see what has happened after the events of the first season.

Even more Vael is on the way with the second full-length campaign currently being recorded.
