Remembering Our Real-Life Co-Op Legends

As gamers, we spend hours building memories—grinding levels, winning matches, or just hanging out on voice chat. But when we lose someone who was part of that journey, the pause hits differently.
Recently, I lost someone who used to game with me every weekend. While no “extra life” could bring them back, I wanted a way to honor them that felt personal. That’s when I found urns for ashes from Yatskia—minimal, handcrafted, and meaningful. Not some generic thing you'd hide away, but something that fits right next to our old game cases.
Their full range of urns and urns for human ashes really surprised me with how thoughtful and well-designed they were.
If you’ve lost someone who meant everything—your Player 2, your raid leader, your real-life MVP—Yatskia has something that might just help keep their memory in the right place: close.
