About the book:
The Vampire – Alone in the Darkness is a Role-Playing Game that lets players act as a powerful Vampire, a former human who died and got resurrected by a demon acting like an unholy puppeteer. In this existence afterlife, the Vampire fights to keep the balance between their human impulses and the demonic presence’s bloodlust.
This isn't your dad's Vampire! Different from other popular settings, Vampires weren’t interested in manipulating the great wheel of humanity. They stayed in the shadows and usually lived in isolation, not only from other humans but from other Vampires. However, since the popularity of their myth, from the writings of Bram Stoker to the adolescent fantasies of Twilight, they are at constant peril from researchers, hunters, and other supernatural entities. Some started to look for strength in numbers, joining the so-called Legions, communities of Vampires that are rapidly becoming more and more political… and dangerous.
3 ways to play:
- Solo: the player creates one or more vampires and interacts with them in the created scenario, rolling dice (d10) against tables with pre-defined actions, slowly unfolding the story.
- Co-Op Group: it works the same way as a Solo Game, without needing a narrator/DM role.
- Guided play (with a Narrator): like a traditional tabletop RPG, with a player in charge to select what happens, either by using the material in this book or by inserting new events.
The game mixes traditional RPG elements with a tabletop tile system. Each tile represents a setting like an urban area, industrial zone, or city outskirts, each one with multiple events that can be interweaved and branched out to generate millions of ramifications. The book is a great toolbox that can make your story unfold in multiple, dynamic ways before you with the help of the following features and mechanics:
- Detailed backstory explaining more of the world’s setting.
- Suggestions and examples on how to run your adventures.
- Complete set of rules, character creation, skills and stats, advantage and disadvantage, and much more.
- Oracle system that helps you answer simple questions like Yes/No, Left/Right, Open/Close.
- 6 Castes based on types of demons who reanimate corpses to turn them into vampires.
- 12 skills and 10 Dark Powers that will make your Vampire incredibly powerful.
- 5 different tiles, each one with its own table of events that extends to 20 different plot branches. including ruined cities, industrial areas, underground tunnels, isolated outskirts, and shorelines.
- Auxiliary tables with extra events, violent encounters, weapons, armor, items and much more.
- 2 backstory settings: New York and St. Augustine.
