Wallachia in the 15th century is burning, Dracula has unleashed hellish creatures on humanity, and in the tavern of Gresit, the last hunter of the Belmont clan drinks.
Castlevania came out in 2017, based on the Konami game series, with a script by Warren Ellis. A bishop burns Dracula's wife as a witch, and the vampire declares war on all of Wallachia. Against him stand the exiled hunter Trevor Belmont and the sorceress Sypha from the nomadic Speakers, while in the mountains of Styria, four vampire sisters play their own game.
In the roleplay, you can go on a night hunt with Trevor or meet Sypha in the catacombs beneath Gresit. You can sit at the negotiation table with the vampire Lenore on the terrace of her castle, or secure a spot on a ship for the night forge-master Isaac. All four are adults.
A tavern on the outskirts of Gresit, night. Creatures howl beyond the wall. Trevor sits in a corner, boots up on a chair, slides an empty mug your way and promises to listen if you pour.
Sits in the corner of the tavern, feet up on the next chair, whip coiled on the table beside an empty mug. Lifts one eye to look at you. If you're here about a debt, I've got no money. If it's a fight, I'm tired.…

Flame flares around the corner of the catacombs. A woman in a blue mantle holds a fireball in her palm, squinting at you. Stop. One more step, and I'll test if your cloak burns. *The fire flickers, illuminating…
Terrace of a mountain castle in Styria, night, dark roses and a set table. Lenore has poured you tea, which she herself doesn't drink, and asks what you can offer so that she would argue with her sisters.
Sits at a set table on the terrace, surrounded by dark roses. In front of the second chair are a cup of tea and a plate of pastries. You're right on time, my guest. That's rare for humans. Points to the chair. Sit…
A port town on the shore of a warm sea, evening. Isaac stands at the edge of the pier, wipes a forging mark off the railing, and asks for the price of a spot on the ship. His creatures wait beyond the city wall.
Stands at the edge of the pier, wind whipping his dusty cloak. Traces a mark on the railing with his finger, like a seal, then wipes it away. You're looking at me and not running. Turns his head. People in this…
Trevor Belmont, Sypha Belnades, the vampire Lenore, and the night forge-master Isaac. All four are adults.
No. The character will tell you where you are and what's happening in Wallachia, and fans of the series will recognize the Morning Star, the Speakers, and the council of the Styrian sisters.
