His dark power allows him to exact revenge on humans, taking many forms to terrorize and slaughter them.

The Dark Lord has access to three Forms and can freely change between them. Each Form has unique abilities and strengths.

  • Vampire Form â€“ In his default state, The Dark Lord can use the powerful Hellfire spell, which creates pillars of flame that travel ahead of him and can be cast across low obstacles.
  • Wolf Form â€“ In Wolf Form, The Dark Lord has access to several abilities that allow for more effective tracking. Movement speed is increased, blood pools and scratch marks are more apparent, and Survivors leave a trail of Scent Orbs behind them. The Dark Lord can collect these Scent Orbs to charge a powerful Pounce attack.
  • Bat Form â€“ While in Bat Form, The Dark Lord gains the Undetectable status effect. Additionally, he moves faster, ignores vault points, and can Teleport to any vault points within 32 meters. Survivors become invisible, but scratch marks can be seen.
