The Solemn Vale Kickstarter campaign is going fabulously. We have just unlocked another stretch goal, Stranded by Danielle Lauzon – A module for Into the Wyrd.
A bus tour along the coastline of Southwest England brings the characters into the dangerous path of a coven, on a night where the full moon aligns with the summer solstice and a dark ritual begins.

Over the weekend, Weirdo Bob took lead Developer of Solemn Vale, Mathew Dawkins “for a walk in the woods” and got him to open up about some Wyrd things:
1. Finish this sentence: Solemn Vale is….
Solemn Vale is… a perfect holiday getaway for the vacationer who wants to step off the beaten track and embrace some authentic old English culture.
2. What is your favourite thing about this game?
My favourite thing about Solemn Vale is the way the mechanics effectively convey the creeping dread in the game’s tone.
3. If you were a character living in Solemn Vale, who would you be?
I’d be Father Aloysius, steadily losing my mind and faith.
4. Can you tell us all a secret about Solemn Vale?
The Badger’s Stump ale contains stumps, but they don’t belong to badgers.
5. What scares you?
Nothing of a supernatural nature. For me, the scariest things are mundane, and revolve around being helpless while those around you suffer. A semi-deep answer!
That’s it for this update, everyone. Don’t forget to check out more Weirdo Bob on the Elektric Wyrd. Speaking of, has anyone seen Creative Director, Mark Kelly about? And what was that thumping coming from the boot of Bob’s Ford Capri?
