Nightlanders :: A Cyberpunk Fairytale

Welcome to the unending, neon-soaked, dark at the core of the planet. To humanity’s last City, in all its fallen glory. Where the sun is a myth, but the monsters are real. Where good is evil, truth is a lie, and lost laboratories crawl with things you’d rather not think about… ....that are definitely thinking about you.... Haunted, hunted, and not quite human; Spook's crew steal to survive amidst the ruined glory of centuries past. Cracking corporate vaults. Hacking quantum AIs. Murdering unknowable abominations in the dark. But claws, and horns, and rocket-rail rifles, can’t save a genetically-modified kid from their past.  Or the twisted pact they made to escape their very, very, Evil Stepmother…. And now the Nightmares are catching up. With plastic assassins and digitised psychopaths on their literal tails, the crew must make a terrible choice. Dare they trust their new and traitorous ‘ally’? The very monster that trained them, and all its terrifying gifts? Or do they slip into The Dark, forever….? >> What To Expect A thrilling high-stakes, high-action, mystery built upon a grimdark world full of twisted secrets and true madness. Follow a cosy Found Family team of mutants, cat-eared teens, eldritch AIs, and oddities as they run heists & delve into places nobody should go. Expect slow burn reveals, tragic & horrific backstories, permanent main character deaths, and toothy little monster-things that eat your underwear. Think Cyberpunk 2077, or Shadowrun, with Lovecraftian Horror & Superweapons.  And maybe even more. I hope you're ready for this. We'll See you all at The Opening Of The Eye..... >> SCHEDULE Aiming for two to three chapters per week, but will delay content if needed to improve quality of final chapter.  >> WARNING Nightlanders features brutal deaths, gore, bad jokes, worse jokes, abuse, trauma, horrific imagery, Lovecraftian monstrosities, gaslighting, and characters with utterly gut-wrenching backstories. >> CREDITS Written by PJBlackmoore.
