New Contacts and Personnel for Vaesen by Morten Greis is a role playing game supplement published by Free League Publishing through the Free League Workshop Community Content Programme for use with Vaesen – Nordic Horror Roleplaying.
The supplement is available as an eight page Pay What You Want PDF from DriveThruRPG. One page is the front cover.
Following a couple of short pieces of fluff, the opening paragraphs explain that contacts are valuable to the Society for their connections and that personnel are important for managing things with skills the Society members may not have.
Contacts then lists sixteen new contacts. Each has their job, some text describing them, prerequisites, cost, function and, in some cases, threat.
Personnel then describes seven new personnel. Each has their role, description, prerequisite, cost and function. Several also have asset and one has special.
New Rules has two new rules for use with contacts and personnel.
Threats from Contacts then describes a variety of threats, essentially adventure hooks, for those contacts that had threats listed in their description.
New Contacts and Personnel for Vaesen in Review
The PDF lacks bookmarks and, though short, has enough sections that these would have been useful. Navigation is okay. The text maintains a two-column format and appeared to be mostly free of errors. There are a couple of pieces of black and white stock art. Presentation is okay.
Both contacts and personnel can be useful to the Society, and having more options for them broadens the ways in which they can have an effect, especially as some of them bring potential problems with them, seen via the Threats section. These threats will be different to those of the vaesen that the Society normally deals with. New Contacts and Personnel for Vaesen is a useful little supplement and it can be found by clicking here.
