Dark Necessities
This is a short game about vampires (and other creatures of the night) giving in to their inner beast in order to gain its powers.  The powers may be tempting, but beware to not lose yourself to darkness! Roll or choose a scenario and prepare for whatever the night brings you. It's designed to be printed as an A5 booklet (on one A4 sheet), with the character sheet on the front and the GM section on the back. The game was inspired mostly from Cthulhu Dark and Lasers and Feelings. It was made for the 2020 One Page RPG Jam
