      Hi 😁 You should be talking about Vaesen/væsen as "A vaesen" NOT "The vaesen" unless you're refering to a specific vaesen.
      Vaesen/being... or maybe entity.

    A supplement is being planned for the British Isles. Btw: I didn't realize until now that the title Vaesen has basically the same meaning as the German word "Wesen" (creature).

      I'm no linguist 😅 but i am a Dane. Sweden, Norway and Denmark has "somewhat" the same language or lot in common. Our language is of Germanic (Germany) descent. We have a cylable for "ae" (Vaesen) "æ" which is pronounced like the "ei" sound in the word "Veil."
      My best translation of Vaesen/væsen would be "Being" and not "creature."

      @@PpAirO5 Wesen can have different meanings in German. For example, "Das Wesen von etwas" can mean something's essence or innermost being. However, in the context of this game, Wesen would be defined as "being" in the sense of creature and not its essence. At least that is how i understand it.

    • @PpAirO5
      @PpAirO5 Рік тому +1

      @@stoneworkmegapup215.. I actually had a bit of the same thought about it. Cause "Væsen" (the term i like to use) might refere to a being or a soul/spirit/ghost/essence. 😊
      It's just that when i think of creature, i think more of an animal or animal like being, or beast of some sort.
      That's why i think "Being" is the best translation in this situation. I could be wrong.... but i don't think so 😄
      Sorry, i was a bit quick on my answer (defending myself) It seems we agree on this 👍

    i'm considering purchasing this game. the illustrations remind me, sometimes, the book of faeries (alan lee & brian froud). that was a big influence in my childhood. the solo play would be the main option, so, thanks for the video!

    I’ve been very happy paging through Wanderings, very evocative excerpts!

      @@mattjackson Correct. Some of these I made myself; some (including the monster reaction table used here) are from others. The monster reaction table comes from Gygax's AD&D GM Guide (1979) and may be other editions too. My Solo Game Master's Guide discusses the contents of this wallet and reproduces many of the items in it (at least the ones I could get permission to reproduce).
