Original Synopsis:

The village of Shadowrock labors under the yoke of unknown evils that walk the night mists, leaving the corpses of villagers for the morning light. They are the victims of a strange plague which has always haunted this sleepy valley, and so it has ever been say the Shadowrock elders.

You have lived unquestioning like the rest, surrendering the dead to the Gravekeeper who watches the forbidden tombs of the forest. Then one morning everything changes when the dreaded night ills strike your own family down. A road of fateful decisions, whispered questions and bloody vengeance lies ahead. With all the forces aligned against your struggle, you are but a candle in the dark.

Features:

- Most humanoid enemies will drop all the gear that they are visibly wearing.

- Traders will restock their shop inventory just by asking them to.

- New custom and returning DOS1 Skills/Spells for all skill trees, sold by a dedicated merchant.

- Special weapons, such as fist weapons and elemental daggers.

Gameplay Tips and Recommendations:

1. Play a three party of 1 PC + 2 Companions, 2 PC + 1 Companion, or 3PCs for best experience. However, I won't stop you if you want to play anyway else.

2. Do not play Undead. Seriously don't. It won't make sense for the story and might ruin some encounters.

3. Ideally play as a Human. Dwarf, Elf or Lizard works, it's just that you have to accept that your parents adopted you since they themselves are human.

4. Update your gear every level up and learn the custom spells. Sell stuff that enemies drop.

5. Analyse the situation and plan ahead for engaging in battles.
