Hello all! This is the first post covering updates for "A Hunter's Divine Comedy". We can't wait to share this project with everyone and while we're still finishing up the playtest material we decided to post a little game teaser and time line for the project.

Game Teaser

“Being a hunter is the gods’ cruel joke.

To protect humanity, we abandon our own.

To preserve hope, we become their fear.

To see the dawn, we prowl the night.

And to defeat the demons, we become monsters.”

Those were the first words of Vladiměrǔ Krovosos in his journal, “A Hunter’s Divine Comedy”.  The Grand Huntsman was the first in the modern dark age to fight back against the monster  that prowled the night. To do so he learned he could consume the blood of the monsters he killed to gain their abilities. Though the more he did so the more he learned it was a curse he inflicted upon himself. The blood was slowly eroding his humanity turning him into more and more of a monster until he felt it was too much of a burden and retired. In his twilight years he wrote all he knew into a journal to help guide the next generation of hunters while also warning them of the curse he gifted them until finally time and age ended his hunt.

In the RPG, “A Hunter’s Divine Comedy” you follow in the footsteps of The Grand Huntsman, taking on the role as a hunter prowling the night. The game's mechanics are designed to create a dark and bleak atmosphere where every mistake could be your last. The game combines realistic combat, complex monster design, and punishing mechanics to make the hunt feel as exciting and stressful as it should. As the game goes along the blood you consume from the monsters you hunt will contribute to your strength and your madness, with the constant tug of war between power and humanity looming over you. Will you emerge victorious against the dark or become just another monster hiding in it? The choice is yours.
