From publisher blurb:
The Supernatural Treasure Hunt is a supplement for Vaesen based on Danish folklore from the 19th century.
A common belief in 19th century Denmark (and Europe) was, that blue flames marked the presence of buried treasure. Anyone daring to dig would encounter black dogs, dragons or the ‘bjergfolk’ (hill folk – nisse/dwarf) trying to stop the diggers from reaching the treasure using sorcery and illusions. At other times ghosts and revenants would guard the buried treasure. Daring treasure hunters would could follow the rules of the supernatural treasure hunt could win great riches – but the treasure hunter hired to assist might be a mere charlatan!
This supplement for Vaesen introduces the supernatural treasure hunt as a part of the Vaesen game. The first half of the supplement contains materials for the players:
A new archetype: The Treasure Hunter
New talents for the treasure hunter
New upgrade, new contacts
New items of power
For the game master there is material on how the supernatural treasure hunt takes form, a guide on how to create treasure hunts in Vaesen and suggestions for mysteries based on the treasure hunt.
An appendix contains rare accounts of the treasure hunt from Danish folklore translated to English.
Den fortryllede skattejagt er et supplement til Vaesen baseret på dansk folketro fra 1800-tallet.
En udbredt forestilling i 1800-tallets Danmark (og Europa) var, at der brændte blå flammer, hvor der var begravet skatte, og hvis man turde grave der, ville man møde sorte hunde, drager eller bjergfolket, som prøvede at hindre skattegraverne med trolddom. Andre gange huserede der spøgelser og gengangere ved de nedgravede skatte. For modige folk, der kunne overholde den overnaturlige skattejagts regler, var der stor rigdom at vinde.
Supplementet indeholder for spillerne en ny arketype, Skattejægeren med tilhørende nye talenter, nye fortryllede ting, opgraderinger og kontakter. For spilleder er der en gennemgang af folketroens skattejagte og vejledning til, hvordan mysterier kan bygges op som en fortryllet skattejagt samt flere opæg til mysterier.
