Nightfall Games

Demon Dog is a role-playing game set in a anarchic medieval history that never was. You play “Dogs”, revenants snatched from purgatory - now seeking redemption and a pint. You weren’t a hero while alive and you certainly aren't one now, but you’re possibly making things better. Or worse. At the very least less boring.

You died. It’s very sad. Get over it.

Luckily for you, you bargained with one of the six demon barons and you get to finish your earthly business. Go get revenge, or seek redemption - but remember: You made a pact. You’d better do what the demon wants too... 

As the eponymous Demon Dogs, you get to wander the world, dealing with all those people who deserve a bit of a kicking. There’s the clergy and their Inquisition, for example: They could do with tasting the business end of a boot, and their churches are dissapointingly un-burnt. Then there’s the gutter press that peddle lies to the gullible. They may not like it if their scriveners get a wee bit stabbed, but then such are the dangers of poor journalism. Of course, there's always the toffee-nosed monarchy and their abuse of unearned power. Difficult to invoke a flimsy divine right to rule when you've been reduced to your component parts. Give it some welly, my son. Give it all some undead oomph. Just never forget who owns you...

Though inspired by Mörk Borg and compatible with it, Demon Dog is it's own thing. Where Mörk Borg is doom metal OSR, Demon Dog takes the same thesis and applies it to the punk aesthetic. Smash together the ideas in both books or forge disparate parts into your own thing - it's all good!
