Lore and chronicle tone

The Vigil and the hidden war

Hunter: The Reckoning casts everyday people into a war they never asked for; monsters in the suburbs, cults in boardrooms, and horrors that wear familiar faces. Cells are small, desperate, and human-scaled. Your hunters are not superheroes; they are neighbors, nurses, teachers, and veterans who saw too much and chose to fight back. Chronicle tone blends investigative thriller, horror, and found-family drama. The creator helps you define who your hunters were before the Vigil began.

Creeds, drives, and moral lines

Creeds shape how a hunter relates to the hunt: Zeal, Mercy, Vision, and others offer philosophy, not just mechanics. Drives push characters toward obsession: revenge, protection, curiosity. Edges are the supernatural toolkit the imbued receive, but they come with costs and attention from forces hunters barely understand. Document creed and drive in the wizard so your table can explore when the Vigil demands compromise.

Cells, safe houses, and chronicle hooks

No hunter fights alone for long. Cells share intel, cover each other's identities, and argue about how far to go. Background ties: family, jobs, debts; remain anchors that monsters can exploit. Use the creator to list cell members, edges, and thematic notes your Storyteller can thread into sessions: a missing contact, a burned safe house, a rival cell with different ethics.

Rules and creation flow

Hunter creation in Darkness Weaver

The wizard walks through hunter identity, attributes, skills, creed, drive, edges, and cell context. Validation keeps edge selections and profile fields within expected Reckoning structure. You can build one hunter at a time or iterate across sessions; drafts stay in the browser until you sign in for cloud sync.

Edges, cell play, and PDF export

Edges appear on the dossier with room for notes about activation, limitations, and chronicle-specific rulings. Cell-level details help Storytellers track who knows whom. PDF export follows Hunter sheet layout for table use: print for convention games or share digitally between sessions.

Storyteller and player tips

Running Hunter for new groups

Start with a clear inciting incident: what did each hunter witness that they cannot explain away? Export PDFs before session one so edges and drives are visible to everyone. Encourage players to write one mundane obligation: job, child, mortgage; that the Vigil threatens.

Player advice

Play humans, not action-movie protagonists. Coordinate with your cell before spending limited resources. Update the dossier when your Storyteller awards new edges or when drives evolve; re-export keeps the table aligned.
