.: CONGRATULATIONS VALDEMAR :.
Our own, Valdemar Lenschow, who ran a faboulous scenario at our games at The Museum of Natural History's exhibition "Dragons and Other Mythological Beings" was nominated for not one, but two prizes at the largest Danish roleplaying convention, Fastaval. A convention that has a great and proud literary, gaming and roleplaying tradition that has inspired many of the greats in the world wide roleplaying community.
That is huge and I think we should all give him a pad on the back next time we see him and celebrate this achievement. He's a debuting author as well. This years contingent of authors was very good and Valdemar got nominated for "Bedste Virkemidler/Best Mechanics" and the big one, "Bedste Scenarie/Best Scenario".
Here's what the jury had to say!
: Bedste Virkemidler/Best Mechanics :.
Kærlighedsbreve mellem en nonne og en ridder/The Nun and the Knight af Valdemar Møller Rygaard Lenschow
Gennem monologer sender rollerne breve til hinanden og får mulighed for at dele deres tanker og overvinde afstanden imellem dem. Med snuhed, lægekunst og tvekamp kan spillerne præge historien, men der er en pris. For hvis skæbnen synes beseglet, kan kun et edsbrud redde en.
Through monologues, the main characters send letters to each other and get the opportunity to share their thoughts and overcome the distance between them. With cunning, medical skill, and jousting, players can shape the story, but there is a price to pay. Because if your fate seems sealed, only a broken oath can save you.
: Bedste Scenarie/Best Scenario :.
Kærlighedsbreve mellem en nonne og en ridder/The Nun and the Knight af Valdemar Møller Rygaard Lenschow
Højmiddelalderens arthurianske ridderromancer fortolkes stilbevidst i et gribende drama, hvor to riddere og to nonner er adskilt af både konflikter og afstand. Troskab og kærlighed dyster mod hinanden, når Mordreds lakajer truer klostret, og de fire hovedpersoner skal beslutte, hvad der er vigtigst for dem.
High Medieval Arthurian romance is flairfully brought to life in a gripping drama where two knights and two nuns are separated by both conflicts and distance. Love jousts against fidelity as Mordred’s lackeys threaten the convent and the four main characters must choose what is most important to them.
We want to say congratulations to you, Valdemar, and hopefully this is just the beginning of your endeavour into writing roleplaying scenarios - you're clearly gifted with a talent!
