3 | Once every few centuries, a special night arrives: the Dead Moon. Without fail, creatures from the Netherworld will attempt to travel to the world of the living to carry out their nefarious plans under the moon's sinister glow. |
4 | |
5 | One of these creatures is Morten, a lich who accompanies his demon friend, Behemoth, to gather some magical components. However, things go awry and he ends up a head, with his body parts and his grimoire, the source of his power, gone missing. As such, he is forced to rely upon Mariah, a tragically naive young nun, to hunt down his body parts and get his revenge. And he only has until dawn to do it. |

7 | Along the way, he picks up various allies in the form of: |
8 | * Robin, a paladin in life who has picked up some major self-esteem issues in death. |
9 | * Fenral, a werewolf who's taken to hiding in the nearby forest. |
10 | * Dahlia, an innocent ghost who occasionally forgets that she's dead. |
11 | * Vlad, a mage and vampire who wishes people would look past his species and stop expecting him to be so stereotypical. |
12 | * And Hilda, a green-skinned witch who shows up to lend a hand from time to time. |

17 | !!Tropes used include: |
18 | |
19 | * AscendedFanboy: Vlad is a huge fan of Robin. |
20 | * BadassAdorable: Dahlia, [[spoiler: Behemoth, and Mariah]]. |
21 | * BatmanGambit: The entire game focuses around gambits being pulled by Morten, Behemoth, and Hilda, who are all |
22 | ** OutGambitted: by [[spoiler: Mariah. She admits in the end that Hilda might have been a threat if she had noticed her true intentions, but in the end, fell for her act as well as the rest.]] |
23 | * BitchInSheepsClothing: [[spoiler: Hilda, who uses Behemoth and Morten against each other, but Mariah is a better example.]] |
24 | * GodSaveUsFromTheQueen: Subverted. [[spoiler: Despite her allies all being undead and monsters, Mariah is hailed as the most popular queen in centuries.]] |
25 | * GreyAndGreyMorality: [[spoiler: Pretty much everybody who isn't outright evil is either stupid and easily manipulated. The only genuinely good person in the entire game is Robin - fitting, since he was a paladin in life.]] |
26 | * HeroesPreferSwords: Robin's weapon of choice. |
27 | * ItAmusedMe: Hilda and [[spoiler:Mariah]]. |
28 | * ObfuscatingStupidity: [[spoiler: Mariah, who puts on a terminally naive act for the sake of some entertainment.]] |
