HAVEN: a Game of Witches
A downloadable game
HAVEN is a game created using the Belonging Outside Belonging engine developed by Avery Alder. It tells stories about a group of witches who have found community in each other within a dark forest, away from the rest of the world. For 3-5 players across 3-4 hours.
HAVEN is currently in playkit mode, with fully laid-out playsheets and rules. Buying it now will grant access to all future versions of the game as well. The game currently includes:
- Character Playsheets for The Ascending, The Rose, The Eldest, The Newcomer, The Unburned, and The Warden.
- Setting Elements for The Whims of Magic, Buried Sins and Secrets, The Dark Forest, The Village Beyond, and The Witches of Haven.
- A Haven Sheet, for fleshing out your version of Haven.
What Comes Next?
Future versions of the game may include:
- More world and character playbooks! Old and forgotten gods, diabolists that deal with demons, and others!
- Fleshed-out rules for expanding Haven as a community and incorporating yourselves with the forest.
- More magic! Big rituals, strange curses, and mystical environments.
- More art and fancy decorations!

The game is very ineresting indeed.
Is there a way I can gain the author's permission to make a translation of HAVEN so it can be officially published in other languages?
This game is amazing, touching, and beautiful. As a pagan I wanted to reach in and be a part of this world. As a lover of the eldritch I wanted to add to it. It is a wonderful game that is more performance art and personal magick than game.
