Under the stewardship of Doctor Strange, a group of sorcerers supreme believe no one should have access to The Darkhold, not even a god. They’re determined to retrieve the book, undo the blight placed on NYC, and then lock it away forever.
Led by Blade, when Dracula plunges NYC into eternal night, this team snaps into action with one mission and one mission only: Kill Dracula and undo all the eternal night, forcing all bloodsuckers to scatter under returned daylight.
Scarlet Witch—Sorcerer Supreme of her dimension—secretly wished to gain control of the Darkhold to protect her reality from collapsing on itself, and she has assembled a cult of believers in the Darkhold and herself as the rightful owner of the Book of Sins.
Khonshu’s forces and the protectors of nighttime travellers. Their main goal is to protect the city bathed in eternal night and destroy all the vampires they can while Khonshu gathers what he needs to cast The Montesi Formula and eradicate the vampires while leaving the city in darkness.
Even without her partner, she’s a force to be reckoned with. A poke-sharpshooter specialist, Dagger is geared up to lob hard-hitting light daggers lightning fast with deadly accuracy. She can even parry and return incoming ranged attacks. Her light daggers also give her the unique ability to attack enemy Focus, greatly draining opponents’ ability to use their powers.
Morbius the Living Vampire uses his abilities to regenerate and steal life, allowing him to sit on the frontlines as a brawler. Complete with strong defense and strength that he can use to subdue individual enemies, or toss them. Should his high health barrier get worn down, he has escapability with flight and psionic abilities he can use to control enemies.
It’s hard to pin Blade down into a single archetype. He’s not a glass cannon, and he’s not a berserker or reaver. He excels at range or in close and hitting hard. However, he can exploit weak points and spread conditions like a control caster when he does. He doesn’t come with abundant health but makes up for that with good damage reduction and health regeneration.
