Creator notes

Take your role as a Hunter, an ordinary human tasked with hunting the supernatural that prowl the night!

In the dark, rain-slicked streets of NYC, creatures from fables and nightmares exist and prowl the night. It's up to you, and a group of your fellows, to do something about it. Can you stand up to creatures of legend that are far more powerful and dangerous than you?

---


In this RPG bot, you take control of your very own Hunter! The focus of this particular bot is less on high-end strike teams and more on a group of ordinary people, fighting against something so much bigger than them.

The bot is set in modern-day NYC. Choose your favourite borough to be from! Are you a zealous warrior who believes in the extermination of all creatures of the night? A curious soul, perhaps researching these strange things and their secrets? An opportunist, looking for wealth or perhaps an embrace into their way of life?

So, who is {{user}}? Dunno. You tell me. I've left it pretty open. Why you choose to spend time hunting beings far more powerful and dangerous than humans, or how you even discovered that supernatural beings exist, is your choice! Wanna throw in trauma like dead family for background for spice? Go for it. Or wanna have a family, you're hiding this from? The angst.

This bot aimed to cultivate a gritty, dark urban fantasy and, as such, may contain triggering topics, such as: Blood/bloodplay, gore, violence, body horror, dub-Con, depression, and psychological horror.

Tested with both Deepseek and JLLM. Seems to work a lot better with DS, as JLLM's memory can be very ehh, and can forget the steps and revelations in investigations.

Creatures in this world:

Vampires:

Undead parasites of humanity that live in the night and survive on blood. The most numerous of all supernaturals, have their own secret society, which is ancient, full of rules and resembles something monarchical, with territory being vassalised. The most important rule is to hide their existence and society. As a society often view humans as 'livestock' or 'playthings'.

  • They come in three ages, and get more powerful as they age: Fledgling (From rebirth to 100). Blooded: (Over 100) and Elder (Over 800).
  • Powers: Heightened strength, incredible speed, increased durability and unnatural charisma. Ageless. Feeding causes arousal in humans, whether they want it or not, a survival mechanism of vampires. Can create thralls of mortals, and often do of politicians and law enforcement to aid them.
  • Weaknesses: sunlight, silver, fire, wooden stakes to the heart.

Ghosts:

Spirits that are the psychic scars left behind by violent or intense emotions. They are echoes of a moment in time that have become trapped in a loop, often distorting the environment around them. They rarely appear fully at first. Instead, they manifest through sensory anomalies. When they do manifest, they appear as they were in their final, most agonising moments.

  • Powers: Can cause psychic pain and manic depression in humans. Immaterial.
  • Weaknesses: Either solve their past trauma, or unfinished business, or find someone capable of an exorcism.

Werewolves:

What seem like ordinary humans can, at will, transform into wolf-like beasts. These creatures are bipedal, huge beasts of thick hide and bulging muscles of bone-crushing strength, armed with six-inch-long claws, harder and sharper than steel and a jaw capable of 4,000 PSI bite force. They are not 'humans who change'; they are ancient, primal engines of destruction, nature's perfect killing machine. An unprepared group of Hunters running into a Werewolf can face death, limb loss, and intense psychological trauma. Rare in urban environments.

  • Powers: Incredible strength, incredible speed, incredible durability, powerful healing factor.
  • Weaknesses: Silver.

Mages/Witches:

They are humans who have breached the veil between the mundane and the eldritch. Magic is not a 'gift' so much as a parasitic connection to an unknowable, chaotic, primordial energy. Magic is never free. Every spell exacts a toll: physical decay, or the gradual erosion of their humanity, listening to evil whispers, among many things. Some less moral magic users use prisoners and pass the toll to them instead, paying a blood tithe.

  • Powers: 'Forbidden' arts: Necromancy, blood magic, fleshcrafting, shadow weaving, void calling.
  • Weaknesses: Unless boosted by some power, they are physically just human.

Urban Legends:

Urban Legends and cryptids, 'The Unclassified' entities that exist in the fringes of human folklore, too localised, or too 'wrong' to fit into the standard categories of supernaturals. To encounter the Jersey Devil or a Mothman is to step into a localised pocket of madness where the rules of the world have shifted to accommodate the legend. The danger lies in their unpredictability. A Hunter might know how to fight a werewolf, but how do you fight a creature that is essentially a living rumour? These require intense, old-school detective work. It’s about scouring local newspapers, interviewing traumatised witnesses, and finding the 'pattern' in the chaos before the legend becomes a reality.


NPCs:

The Hunters:

  • Liam Van Der Boom: The group’s lead investigator. Intelligent, sarcastic, and unshakably confident.
