A battle system that makes full use of a variety of races, weapons, and techniques.

Various races: vampires

The vampires in this work are the only race that exists. Like humans, they can use most equipment, techniques, and techniques, and in addition to learning techniques through inspiration, they can also use “blood techniques'' that consume LP. Furthermore, by sucking the blood of allies, you can increase your maximum LP and learn blood techniques. Additionally, you can acquire the ability “Blood Roll'' with special equipment called “Blood Gear.''

vassal and knight

The comrades whose blood is sucked will have their maximum LP reduced and become “kin'', and they can also be made “knights'' by bestowing blood gear on them. Characters who become knights have increased maximum LP and can also use blood rolls and blood techniques. However, blood gear given to a knight cannot be used by other companions, and in order to let other companions use it, it is necessary to “strip'' the blood gear given to the knight.

A knight who is stripped of his blood gear becomes a “crock''. If you become a crock, your maximum LP will be 1, and you will no longer be able to use blood techniques, blood rolls, or learn new techniques. Since there is no way to bring back friends who have become delinquent, the question of who to make into knights and when will be a matter of strategy.

blood technique

A technique that consumes LP and can only be used by vampires and knights. Many have powerful effects that are worth the LP consumption. Unlike normal skills and spells, the blood skills you possess are shared by all your allies, and the same blood skill cannot be equipped or used by multiple people at the same time.

roll

Each character can be equipped with “roles” in addition to equipment, skills, and techniques. Many of them have effects that equipment doesn't have, and they can change the way you fight. Roles are not only those that can be acquired by learned skills, techniques, fighting methods, etc., but also roles that are unique to the character. There are also “Souls'', which are only equipped by Kugutsu, and “Blood Rolls'', which can be used by vampires and knights.

There are not only general-purpose roles, but also special ones such as Tsunenori's Kugutsu user and the blood role that dwells in Blood Gear.

Kugutsu can use “soul techniques” by equipping a soul with techniques.

Weapon type: one-handed gun

A one-handed gun is a highly responsive weapon with a wealth of reserve techniques. Many techniques have anti-air characteristics that are effective against flying enemies. Also, if you are equipped with two one-handed guns and a special role, you can perform a two-handed pistol technique. If you are equipped with a one-handed sword, one-handed gun, and a special role, you can use sword x gun techniques.

Skill rank up

As you use skills and techniques, your proficiency level will increase and your rank will increase. As you rank up, it becomes more powerful, such as reducing BP cost and increasing power.
