Golden Krone Hotel

General Arobase,

Trust me when I say we have a shared interest. On the outskirts of the border town Stritiba, there lies a tower inhabited by the worst of scoundrels. Maybe you've heard of it, but few know who resides at the top: none other than Fane! I know during the war you wiped out all of Fane's lieutenants, but the vampire prince eluded you. I can offer you a bounty for taking care of Fane, but we both know the job will be reward enough.

I suggest you conceal your identity on this mission, for Fane has both vampire and human in his employ...

Tips

Manipulating light is crucial to your survival. Don't hesitate to use torches.

The question icon is displayed when an enemy can't currently see you. Use this knowledge to your advantage.

Sunlight is a powerful tool and a double-edged sword. Watch the sunlight icon and time of day closely to track its direction.

SORINA AROBASE

EXALTED VAMPIRE HUNTRESS

You play as Sorina Arobase, a human general made famous for killing vampires during the Third Sangian War.

FANE

EXILED VAMPIRE PRINCE

Your objective is to climb to the 10th floor, assassinate Fane, and steal the Golden Krone. The 10th floor is protected by potent magic: only one wearing 4 magical rings, scattered throughout the hotel, can enter.

Vampires

Vampires have superhuman strength, speed, and vision, but low intelligence. Thus, they can't cast magic, wield weapons, or read. Vampires are extremely vulnerable to sunlight.

You start the game as a human, but over time you'll transform into a vampire. This transformation cannot be prevented, but it can be reversed with a Soul Elixir.

Humans

Humans are slow and weak, but can cast powerful magicks. Humans regenerate health, but they also require food.
