ABOUT Vampires Dark Rising is a text-based, free to play, cross-platform, PVP role-playing game. VDR takes a fresh and exciting spin on the genre, introducing the story, characters and universe of a newly rising, vampire inhabited Darkside world. Using the native functions of smartphones, VDR players will find gameplay aspects and interaction features never-before-seen in text-based gaming. Choose your bloodline and join the Rising! WELCOME TO THE RISING Long ago a Great Purge befell our vampire kind. These were our darkest days. For one hundred years we were hunted and destroyed. So many of us fell to dust at the hands of hunters we were forced into hiding. Eventually we began to manage our existence by deceiving humanity with the belief we are a myth... that we do not exist. By now only four bloodlines remain, and we have been scattered across the globe. Knowledge of our true history is lost. Relations between bloodlines are strained. Our history is an open wound and it has left so many of us in turmoil. Covens turn on one another and bloodlines feud. Our nature has become perpetual war. Though our Dark Trinity remained silently among us, by now they have discovered a dark realm that empowers vampire kind. It is said that this rising Darkside thrives off our existence, encourages our vicious ways, protects us, and embraces the sharpness of our minds. In this very moment they are gathering up their children from across the human realm to populate the new. The remaining bloodlines are reuniting and you, vampire, have been summoned. Accept your invitation and become more powerful than you have ever been. Show Caine, Lillith and Andilaveris your worth. Tear out the heart of the past with the fist of the future and rise up... rise into legend!
