Huntervania
HunterVania is a Powered by Apocalypse tabletop role-playing (PbtAp) video gaming system designed to be played with four different character classes, all of which have their own unique playstyles and weaknesses that complement one another effectively in combat situations where monsters are involved. Huntervania features its own set of mechanics on top the traditional PbA framework, such as an emphasis on skill checks rather than dice rolls or a focus on hand-to-hand combat skills over projectile attacks like magic spells from video games. The game was inspired by Netflix's Castlemania and Vampirella series but differs significantly in tone with anime elements that enhance its unique character classes each playstyle differently: Hunter, Bloodhound, Priestess (Daughters of Lilith), Shadowhunter/Angelus. Additionally, it has a small rules addendum for the Dhamphyr playbook to address some errors within the main document and provide additional options available at level 2 or higher in combat situations with monsters that use hand-to-hand attacks as opposed to magical abilities like spells from video games. The game can be played on its own without any prep work, but donations are appreciated for future updates after one's been made by a developer who has already contributed some time and effort into it over the past year or
