Dark of Night @darkofnightgame - Tumblr Blog

genre(s): urban fantasy, romance, horror, mystery

In Dark of Night, an upcoming ChoiceScript WIP, you are a witch helping your father run a bed & breakfast in the small town of Spellcaster. Home to fey, werewolves, witches, and at least a few ghosts, your little town is more than used to weird. But someone (something?) has begun to terrorize Spellcaster and the woods surrounding it, and ‘weird’ is quickly turning dangerous.

Tourists are one thing, but this is an entirely different nightmare.

Features:

Customizable MC, including gender, sexuality, and what sort of magic they wield

Six ROs, five of whom are gender customizable (more info on them here)

A loving father (it’s a fantasy story, after all!)

Body Snatchers (1993)

Multiple cats and dogs to pet

Ghosts with very judgemental opinions

A character-driven plot and choices that could, quite literally, come back to haunt you later!

Updates will be posted on this blog, and a demo is currently in the works!

#amaranth and aster lmao #aster's a lil too graceful to fall on snow but the vibes are There

How would the ROs react to the witch coming up behind them (not sneaking!) and wrapping them up in a hug with only a ‘rough day’ for explanation?

Thank you for the ask!

Amaranth: “Oh, you poor thing,” and then turns to hug you back. You’ll have to be the one to end the hug; they’re content to stay in your arms for a long while. Uses their magic to make your favorite flowers and puts them in a vase before insisting on taking you out to cause some mischief to get your mind off of it.

Aster: They’re content to let you keep hugging them as they go about their work, gently moving you themself when they need to get up to reach something. Won’t say anything, but the fact that they’re letting you continue to cling to them says more than they would be freely willing to admit.

Cam: They’d step gently out of your hold, a hand on yours the only contact left, and ask if you want to tell to them some more about it. If not, that’s fine with them - they’d instead offer to let you come to their room and have a snuggle session with Snookums, if you’re so inclined.

Remy: Turns to embrace you back snugly and begins telling you anything and everything about their day to hopefully drown yours out. Animated about it and tries to get you to laugh, but isn’t too put out if you don’t laugh at all. Would ask if you wanted to go for a walk, but is content to continue holding you inside if not.

Emoni: She jumps a bit! She’s used to hearing things around her that others can’t but not those things making contact, so you startle her. Once she realizes it’s you and hears you’ve heard a rough day, she insists on putting a kettle on to boil while also starting to make dinner for the two of you.

Will: “Figured as much,” and then they unwrap you and insist you draw yourself a bath. When you’ve dried off and rejoined them, the dishes are done, the laundry’s done, and Will is waiting for you on the couch with your favorite movie pulled up. Take-out has been ordered and is on the way.

Hello! Eh.. this awkward moment when the demo isn't even out yet... but you already love all the characters.... I have a question - what would be reactions of ROs if they found out someone was insulting/making fun of MC? Have a great day!

I don’t think it’s awkward! There’s plenty of projects that don’t have demos out yet that I’m already excited for, so you’re in good company.

As for your question, small towns come with gossip no matter what, but if someone’s being particularly nasty all of them are willing to lend an ear to listen and a shoulder to cry on if need be. In the aftermath of that, however...

“Cute of them to assume their opinions matter?? As if they could hold a candle to you-”: Cam, Aster, Emoni

Viciously trash talks the other person in front of MC in the hopes of raising their spirits: Amaranth

Tries to distract the MC with something else to get their mind off of it: Remy, Will

WILL VENTURA

“Obviously I can’t plan for every possibility the future holds, but a good rule of thumb is to not be an idiot and we should be okay.”

Species: Human (witch)

Age: 25

Gender: Customizable (nb/f/m)

Height: 6′4″/193 cm

Appearance: Will has broad shoulders and a broad build, with straight brown hair that’s always a little messy (length varies based on gender, but they usually keep it pulled back/up). They have warm beige skin covered in freckles and dark blue eyes that already seem to be a little world-weary.

About: A witch in the same Coven as you and your father, you and Will have practically grown up together. Their glimpses into the future cause them to be more cautious than most, and while they’re quick on their feet they prefer to have a plan in advance whenever possible. You and Remy have given them stress hives more than once, but you know that no matter what Will always has your back.

#last but not least!!#updated character aesthetics #will #changed the name around a bit and their hair #still deciding whether or not i just want them to be will #or willow/william/willa and have will as a nn

EMONI HILL

“I don’t know who started the ‘dead men tell no tales’ thing, but they were wrong. All the biggest gossips I know are ghosts.”

Species: Human (witch)

Age: 25

Gender: Female

Height: 5′7″/170 cm

Appearance: Emoni has an athletic build, with a round face and black hair in box braids that reach about halfway down her back. She has skin that is a cool dark brown, and serious eyes that are dark brown to the point of looking black.

About: The newest witch in the Coven you, Will, and your father are part of, she took to the living and dead of Spellcaster quickly and can guess a person’s favorite book genre just by looking at them. Ghosts aren’t always the most forthcoming or straightforward, so Emoni’s gotten good at asking questions, spotting lies, and she doesn’t spook very easily. When things are scary, she isn’t one to beat around the bush or say pretty words that aren’t true, but she’s always there with a warm cup of tea if you need it.

#no changes here but as if i WASN'T also going to reblog her profile with the others #emoni #updated character aesthetics

CAMERON MALETTA

“Snookums is the only cat I’ve met who hasn’t shied away from me because of…well, you know. He’s been with me a while, I’m not going to abandon him.”

Species: Werewolf

Age: 24

Gender: Customizable (nb/f/m)

Height: 6′0″/183 cm

Appearance: Cam has a muscular build, with wild, short-ish brown hair that looks like they shaved one side of their head and are growing it out.They have tan skin littered with faint scars, a more prominent scar that starts at their right cheek and ends at the base of their throat, and intense eyes that are a dark green.

About: A werewolf with no pack to speak of save Snookums the black cat, they take up residence in the last available room in the B&B. They’re polite enough and don’t give you any trouble, but they’re tense when Remy comes around and avoid answering personal questions of any sort. They seem more on-edge than anything else, almost as if waiting for something bad to happen, but around you they breathe more easily.

REMINGTON ‘REMY’ WEI

“Sorry again for shedding all over you! Tell your dad the lint rollers are on me this time.”

Species: Werewolf

Age: 27

Gender: Customizable (nb/f/m)

Height: 5′11″/180 cm

Appearance: Remy has a lithe, sinewy build, with wavy black hair that they keep shoulder length. They have ivory skin, a dimple in their right cheek, and playful dark brown eyes.

About: A werewolf that you’ve known for a long time, they live with their pack on the outskirts of Spellcaster and have since they were born. They’re friendly with just about everyone, but are more wary around fey than normal circumstances would warrant. They’re the third musketeer to your first and Will’s second, and you know that if you ever need help, Remy will be the first to come running.

AMARANTH

“So the florist is missing a few flowers, what of it? They’ll look much better woven through my hair, and I owe them a few favors anyway.”

Species: Fey (Seelie)

Age: ;)

Gender: Customizable (nb/f/m)

Height: 5′5″/165 cm

Appearance: Amaranth has a dainty build, soft features, an aquiline nose, and loosely curly hair that they like to claim is the color of boysenberries (waist-length regardless of gender, though how they style it is different). They have russet skin, a pair of delicate insectoid wings that they seldom show others, and indecipherable light brown eyes. Their teeth are pointed, and they don’t bother glamouring them when around non-magic humans.

About: A Seelie fey that flits in and out of Spellcaster at their whim, never staying for too long between disappearances until now. They enjoy trouble and drama for trouble and drama’s sake, though their intentions are seldom mean-spirited. Everything they do is deliberate, but what meaning could the flowers they’re leaving on your windowsill hold?

#updated character aesthetics #amaranth #i changed their hair around a bit as well!

ASTER

“I can’t lie, it’s true, but you’re a brazen witchling indeed if you believe that I’m going to hand over the truth for nothing in return.”

Species: Fey (Unseelie)

Age: ?

Gender: Customizable (nb/f/m)

Height: 5′9″/175 cm

Appearance: Aster has a lean build and sharp features, with short shaggy hair that is jet black and ears that are slightly pointed. They have skin that seems just a bit too pale to be human, and their eyes have an entirely white sclera without an iris or pupil that, when around non-magical humans, they glamour to be an icy gray.

About: An Unseelie fey that showed up to the bed & breakfast a few years ago without explanation, and for some reason hasn’t left since. Stranger still: they don’t have a room, instead choosing to leave for the woods every night only to return in the morning. You know little about them, and they seem to like it that way, but for someone so dangerous they are oddly gentle (as much as fey can be) with you.

hi!! can i ask for the link of your wip? i really couldn't find it aaaaaaaaa

that’s because it isn’t out yet, woops!! I appreciate the effort though omg 🥺 it’s still very much a WIP and there isn’t a demo yet! I will add it to the pinned post and announce it when there is a demo, though, rest assured. This year has just been one shitshow after another for me though so it’ll be a little slower going than initially expected.

Thank you for the ask!

#ask

Hey there!! I'm fine with games that have either set genders or gender swappable ROs, though I will say that as a gay man who's already decided who he wants to romance in this, I would probably be kind of disappointed if Aster got locked to a woman. I would still be excited and want to play though!! (Also fun fact, Emoni is the RO I got on your quiz, even though she's literally the only RO I couldn't be into based on gender 😂)

thank y’all for your answers!! it’s p much what i expected, but i’d love to do a more comprehensive survey about people’s IF preferences someday.

#ask #also emoni on the quiz!! omg #also NO worries abt aster getting gender-locked #p sure i'm gonna keep everyone as is now

Does the game’s gender customization allow the love interests to be nonbinary?

Hello!

Initially I was not planning for that, but I’ve been sitting and thinking on this ask for a while (thank you for being patient!) and realized that it was very wild that I didn’t. So moving forward, all ROs that are gender-selectable will also have nonbinary as an option to choose from.

And I do want to make it clear that I’m not changing it as a way of offering a NB option as a third gender, if that makes sense? For the sake of coding, they’ll use they/them, but obviously being NB can mean a myriad of things for people and that will be reflected in those options for all characters.

I will update the character sheets to reflect this soon and reblog them with the updated information!

Thank you for the question, and I hope this makes sense!
