I have Vaesen, got my PDF right here.
It is a dice pool game. Add Attribute + skill and roll that many dice, count 6 as successes.
You can have Talents that add dice in certain circumstances.
Initiative is handled by drawing cards from a deck of playing cards, using the ten cards from 1-10 in one suit.
Lowest goes first, but you can swap cards with another player if you feel its better that they go before you.
Once you get hurt in combat, you only have 4 physical condition states, Exhausted, Battered, Wounded, Broken.
You also have 4 mental condition states too. Angry, Frightened, Hopeless, Broken
Combat is rarely the most efficient way to fight Vaesen though. By performing certain rituals from folklore or religion most Vaesen can be driven off without a need for fighting.
