Tired of running after vampires and werewolves in the concrete jungle? Hop on a plane and discover a completely new world of strange spirits and hellish monsters - and hunt them!

Roosa Melkko, a game mater of 20 years, returns a year after Vampire Helsinki to tell about her latest World of Darkness campaign: "Hantaa no Rekoningu". She discusses running a Hunter: the Reckoning 5e campaign in a city setting, selecting and adapting the monsters from Japanese folklore and urban legend, and how to explore other cultures by looking into what are they horrified by. Along the way she will also discuss tips on how to help players play more into the relationships between player characters by introducing an original "Dramatic Questions" game mechanic.
