Lore
Spoiler (click to show/hide):
Once, in a fishing hamlet, Scholars of the village of Bergenworth secretly discovered something of great value to the potential of mankind: The Great One Kos. And when they discovered her, what did they do? Of course, they whipped out their junk and jammed it in. Yes, they met something akin to a God and fuck her silly without ever telling the world. Mankind... was never quite the same afterwards. All across the lands, children were being born with nightmarish features, they had become akin to Beasts... but much cuter, so humanity just shrugged and fucked them collectively. Thus began the Age of Lust. Unbeknownst to the populace of mankind, the Scholars made a second discovery: the mystical powers of the Blood of a Great One. With the new discovery came a divide between the the scholars on what to do with their new discovery. Some left Bergenworth, to advance their knowledge of Blood.
The Scholars that left established themselves as the Healing Church of Yharnam, where the properties of Blood managed to cure a great deal of illness within the city, causing the eyes of the world to turn to the city as the Land where the ultimate panacea was discovered. A new age had begun: The Age of Blood. But, not all was well with the city in this age. Beast, true beasts, monstrous beasts, began to appear and roam around the city, tearing apart human and monsterperson alike. The Church asked the alarmed people of Yharnam for their faith and cooperation, and formed the Hunters. At around the same time, a plane of existence known only to hunters known as the Hunter's Dream was conceived. Hunters know not where or how the Dream was created, only that those bound to it are rumored to by undying. It is unknown how or why hunters are chosen to enter the Dream, though it may be in part with a Night of the Hunt occurring very soon...

Hunters Origins
Spoiler (click to show/hide):
Unlike Bloodborne's super detailed system of creating the backstory of your character, I'm going to be streamlining it a bit. You can choose 1 of 3 possible origins, and their associated bonuses and detriments will be added to your stats.
Foreigner: You've come to the city of Yharnam to either seek the miraculous Blood, or uncover the secrets behind it. +1 Endurance, May only start with basic weapons.
Yharnamite: Born and raised here, you've volunteered or been recruited for the Night of the Hunt. -1 Arcane, Bonus modifiers to talking with fellow Yharnamites.
Dreamer: You don't quite know how you ended up here, but you've always dreamt, and now, you're waking up. -1 Vitality, +1 Insight.

Stats
Spoiler (click to show/hide):
I will be using a stat chart quite similar to Bloodborne's but it's mainly intended for roll purposes, rather than combat. It may prevent you from equipping certain weapons, but don't let that deter you. Build however you like. If you don't have a weapon build, I will make it viable somehow, by use of PLOT (and possibly GM generated weapons).
Level: 1 (Default)
Blood Echoes: Your currency/ EXP. Try not to lose them.
Insight: You get to go crazy, and you get to go crazy. Everyone gets to go crazy! Higher levels may cause... side effects.
Vitality: Translates to HP
Endurance: How well you can keep up with combat/ How well you can take a hit.
Strength: How strong you are and how much raw damage you can dish out.
Skill: How skilled and magical your fingers are at wielding trick weapons... Among other things.
Bloodtinge: How well you can shoot and use ranged weapons.
Arcane: How magical you are.
Beasthood: How beastly you are. Maybe higher depending on what species you are. Higher levels may cause... side effects.

Yes, the rp will be a sliding scale between silly and serious. And yes, there can be tentacle porn. We have truly defeated Lovecraft.
Ideas and opinions welcome.
Farewell Good Hunter. May you find your worth in the waking world...
