My brother Stewart and Mark Rein Hagen, founders of White Wolf, stood and toasted Greg Stafford and the Chaosium crew, “Hail to Chaosium, the pioneers, the seers, the shamans, who ignited the flame of storytelling in our roleplaying hobby”, and the White Wolf table cheered their respect.

In the early 1990’s, the staff of Chaosium were celebrating with a feast at Mader’s Restaurant in Milwaukee after a successful Gen Con. Steve Wieck, who has been running Nocturnal Media since his brother Stewart passed, shared this story which explains the relationship between the two companies.

The Prince Valiant story-telling game is also transferring from Nocturnal Media to Chaosium. Today, Chaosium announced the change in ownership.
