The Vampire Regent

The Vampire Regent is a 460,000-word interactive dark fantasy novel about ruling the vampires of a city in the heartland of the United States. Your decisions shape the lives of mortals and immortals in a town built on deceit, where occult political disputes and divided loyalties threaten the secret of the vampires’ existence.

Rule Mordhaven

You can manipulate the mayor so her projects serve your interests, or use high crime rates to hide vampire activity. You can also suppress crime to preserve an unsuspecting appearance of order. Your rule means providing nourishment and safety for the vampires while protecting their secret from enemies.

Choose your nights

You spend your nights pursuing different activities and interacting with characters you can befriend, antagonize or get rid of. Drink blood at nightclubs while listening to rumors and tragedies, or create some of your own. You can practice the centuries-old tradition of fencing and test your skills, and pursue blood, power, knowledge or love.

Shape your vampire

You can play as male or female and explore your sexuality beyond mortal conventions. Choose one of four bloodkin: the shapeshifting Balkanics, the future-seeing Aznuits, the blood-controlling Neshmaals or the mesmerizing Merovingians. Your decisions shape your personality, and you face the consequences of your choices.

Allies and enemies

You can fight vampire hunters, criminals and other vampires, or manipulate them toward your goals. As you uncover buried secrets about the world, the people around you and yourself, you may also find love. Potential romances include a centuries-old buccaneer, a Scottish fencer still adjusting to immortality and an altruistic outlaw vampire.
