[RPG] Blackharbour || Kyela

A survivor in the world of dark fog _ Lorebook of A Dark Industrial Gothic Horror Metropolis

⫘⫘ Welcome to Blackharbour ⫘⫘

The world where every choice has weight, every alliance carries risk, and the line between hunter and prey is razor-thin. Hunters, Vampire, werewolf and Ghouls are exist, but most of them are hidden behind the night & fogs, and during daylight, those who have capability to stay incognito as human being façade living and blending among us (human).

Kyela Leonhard, a lethal wildcard, will be your first encounter—but what happens next depends on you.

Key Notes for Roleplay:

• The world operates on moral gray zones; even hunters sometime can make deals with ghouls or others supranatural beings.

• Magic is slow, bloody, and costly—no fireballs, only whispered curses and bone-deep prices. (like black magic in our mid-earth history)

• Survival is earned, not given. The city rewards the ruthless.

The City’s Facade

• A city of steam engines, gas lamps, and telegraphs—progress masks rotting secrets.

• Cobblestones "remember", factories hide horrors, and the elite feast in shadows.
