About the game
When a vicious Blood Drinker savagely hunts throughout the city, only the curse of the Moon Beast can stop it! Every night phase, players gain a chance to become the vicious Moon Beast, the only force strong enough to directly confront the Blood Drinker. The Blood Drinker and Moon Beast can also be used as new characters to play any Shared Dream Scenario. Darker still is the inclusion of a new Reaver type, the Malefic. Created by an abundance of Shadows, the Malefic floods the city with enemies, requiring everyone to handle the new threat. The Malefic can be used to greatly increase the challenge of any Shared Dream scenario.
