Who's making Shadows
No publisher, no committee — a small crew who wanted to run a cybernetic, supernatural game, couldn't find the system they were looking for, and built one instead. The Synergy System, NYTE City, and everything on this site is the product of years of actual play at the table, rewritten and rebalanced against what real groups needed.
The crew
Creator
Deighton “d33Kode”
25+ years behind the GM screen, and the one who built Shadows from the ground up — the Synergy System, NYTE City, all of it started with him.
Game Master & Technical Writer
Scott “Melf”
Joined the crew in 2019 and fell hard for Shadows. Scott's the direct line that turns Deighton's raw ideas into the words that actually land in the Core Rulebook.
Site & Systems
Ken “Kaza”
A relative newcomer to the hobby himself — Shadows is his only full campaign — Ken's on a mission to get everyone else playing it too, one rebuilt page at a time.
Part of the Get Dangerous family
Shadows is Get Dangerous Games' flagship tabletop project, developed alongside our other work over at getdangerous.net (opens in a new tab). Same studio, same voice, different corner of the work.
