About The Blood of Dawnwalker
The game begins in the village of Laslea, where Coen (the protagonist) and his family are already struggling under the control of the vampires, known as the vrakhiri. The villagers are forced to provide blood to their rulers, and resistance comes with serious consequences.
Coen eventually becomes a Dawnwalker after being turned into a vampire. However, unlike a traditional vampire, sunlight does not destroy him. He retains his human emotions and connections while gaining supernatural abilities.
