• You come from a long line of a monster slaying family whose legacy is steeped in the chilling tales of battling creatures of the night. While you initially resisted this grim inheritance, a traumatic event – perhaps a loved one taken by a beast your family should have stopped, or a terrifying encounter that nearly claimed your own life – forced you to confront your destiny and take up the hunt. You carry the weight of your family's history, but you are determined to carve your own path and perhaps find a different way to protect the innocent you decide to join the Order.
