“I’m sorry, Sir. Your eldest grandson passed away in the hospital. I’ve begun arranging the funeral. Our lawyers are working to secure the release of your cousins from custody. All business operations in Antwerp, Hamburg, and Rotterdam have been seized.” A mousy man, carrying a crisp white envelope modestly approached the once so formidable head of the family.
The grey-templed man sighed, nodded and remained silent, staring ahead, out of a rain speckled window.
The warehouse is a ruin—a skeleton of debris, swinging electrical cables, dust and shattered glass. A forsaken front line. Interpol has seized all the contraband and electronics. Worse yet, they’ve taken the bodies of his family, making it nearly impossible to reclaim them for a proper burial any time soon. And everyone who survived the raid is now in custody
Four generations of work. A legacy—gone in one single afternoon.
Forever Hold Your Peace (FHYP)
...will be a thrilling modern-day role-play event set in a secluded Dutch estate in 2026. Following a massive and highly effective raid by Interpol on key figures within European crime families, the balance of power has been shattered. Prominent leaders have been arrested, and many more have perished, leaving the remaining factions in disarray.
In the aftermath, a call for unity has emerged. The surviving kingpins are convening in a villa in the southern Netherlands, away from prying eyes, to establish (a new) order. Traditionalist patriarchs have proposed a wedding to solidify their alliances, an offer that the younger generation finds hard to refuse under these dire circumstances.
FHYP will feature richly developed pre-written characters which will be cast based on our players preferences. The gameplay is centered on themes of family, honor, choices, alliances, enmities, and the dynamics of a major power shift. It is an event that will take place in the summer of 2026, both in-game and off-game. We will have workshops on Thursday, an evening game kickoff, two full days of immersive gameplay, an after party and a farewell breakfast on Sunday, three nights in total. Our beautiful venue is conveniently located just a half-hour drive from Maastricht/Aachen Airport and a 40-minute bus ride from Maastricht Central Station.
Is this game for me?
An enthusiastic "Yes!" if you enjoy kingpin-themed narratives, contemporary settings, and rich interpersonal drama filled with love, honor, duty, and betrayal.
A decisive "No!" if your enjoyment comes from achieving personal goals in action-packed scenarios featuring weapons, shoot-outs, and high body counts. This is not a play-to-win experience, nor is it fast-paced. There will be no scheduled negotiation sessions about turf/activities. There might be personal negotiations or small scaled deals, but this is not meant to be an 'economy' game.
