Nighthawks

Nighthawks is a vampire role-playing game about a newly reborn vampire trying to build a life in a city where vampires have been exposed. Their existence is more or less tolerated, but their thirst for blood is not. You arrive seeking a fresh start, only to find suspicion and paranoia on the streets, and take over a failing nightclub as you work to master your second life.

Build a nightclub empire

You can grow the club into a refuge that brings lonely souls together and turns fellow outcasts into a found family, or use your position to feed your thirst and ambitions. Seduction, intimidation and secret supernatural Gifts help you shape the club and climb from rags to riches.

Companions and stories

Recruit from a team of ten companions, learn their stories and make use of their skills. They include Madame Lux, a vampire magician; Maze, an incorrigible con artist; Domino, a disgraced private investigator; and Agatha, the free-spirited, perpetual urchin known as the Empress of the Rats.

The fully voiced world contains over 800,000 words of stories and secrets, ranging from hilarious to horrific. It explores a world where vampires no longer own the shadows and where both the living and the dead have much to learn. Murder, sex, betrayal and friendship all feature in the lives of its modern monsters.

Vampire Gifts

You can use powerful vampire magic, including Mesmerism to exert control over the living, Natural Dominion to make animals do your bidding, and Tenebrous Form to shift into smoke.
