Just read this and really loving it, the dodging and reacting mechanics in combat feel like such a good translation of the ways Souls games make you learn an enemy's tells for when to dodge vs when to block, and the spells all feel useful and flavourful. Looking forward to running this!

As a big Souls / Elden Ring / Bloodborne fan, I'm super into the theming of this. All of the flavour text in the fealties, the mounts, and the character options is so good, I can't wait to run a session zero where I tell my players they can be an undead abomination in a tacky chromed car working for blood mages!
Just read this through for the first time, and I'm so immediately intrigued by the way the war slowly escalates in the background of a game. Feels like it would be a wonderfully tense world to run games in. I've been looking at getting into OSR stuff for a while and this might be the perfect way to jump in!
