The Dark Day, you remember it well. The Earth was enveloped in darkness for 24 hours. You heard things…. saw things… but then the world went forward as if nothing changed. However, you now suddenly shapeshift into a terrible monster with your own supernatural abilities. Your life has been changed forever.

What kind of monster will you be?


Nightbane® is a dark fantasy role-playing game of modern horror, conspiracy, and self-discovery. You play as the Nightbane, everyday people who can now transform into frightening monsters with superhuman powers and magic.

The Nightlords have Seized Control


The Nightlords have come from the Nightlands to dominate and enslave humanity. Using the Dark Day, they have infiltrated the government, including the President himself. The only thing standing between them and complete domination are the Nightbanes, including yourself.

Become the Nightbane


Roll the dice to create your character. Survive every day as a ordinary human in your 'Facade' form, but when you need it you can transform into a powerful creature. Discover and explore your new supernatural powers and magic as you fight against the Nightlords. 

Play as as a Nightbane, or explore further to play as a Guardian, Wampyr, Psychic, and more!
