Community Bulletin Board #8 – Forging Connections

Shaping Coen’s path

As Coen roams Vale Sangora, every encounter will shape his journey…

With the latest trailer, the veil has lifted on some of the intriguing characters on Coen’s way. Each of them has their own motivations and secrets, some revealed to you depending on the choices you make throughout the game.

In The Blood of Dawnwalker, your journey is not only defined by battles fought or choices made, but also by the connections you forge.

Every relationship has the potential to open new paths and reveal hidden truths that’ll shape Coen’s destiny.

Let’s dive into the new cast of characters that you’ve discovered in the latest Story Trailer and the Eclipse Edition key visual.

Marat is the leader of a rebellion opposing the vrakhiri. A courageous and charismatic man, he inspires loyalty among his followers but remains deeply cautious of those around him.

Constantly on guard and wary of betrayal, Marat trusts few. To earn his confidence, Coen will need to prove his worth and push beyond his limits in his quest to save his family.

Driven by vengeance, Lacra is a mysterious woman who will stop at nothing to achieve her goals. She seems to have her very own agenda… which she keeps close to her heart.

Little is known about her past, and fewer still have earned the right to hear it. Should your paths cross, your actions may lead her to reveal fragments of her history and true intentions.

But be warned — every step closer comes at a cost — and not all truths are meant to be uncovered.

Anca has always been a quiet presence at Coen’s side guiding him with patience, teaching him how to read, and to see beyond what is plainly written. In her words, there was always something more… something unspoken.

But the closer you get, the more it becomes apparent that she also carries a secret, heavy enough to set her apart from the rest of the village.

For Coen, it seems like each of them could become a powerful ally in his quest to save his family… but can he really trust them all?

Relationships in Vale Sangora are shaped by trust, influence, and choice. Some bonds may strengthen you, others may test your resolve, and a few might even awaken emotions Coen did not expect.

Not everyone you meet will be an enemy. And not everyone you know will remain a friend.

Church is a place of community gathering… where villagers seek comfort, share whispers, and hold on to faith.

Through Father Florin’s understanding, however, it becomes something more. In his diary, he keeps track of the people around him, their habits, their fears, the subtle changes in their behavior with Vale Sangora heading towards a new dawn.

Small details begin to add up, hinting that something is no longer as it should be… and inviting you to uncover the truth for yourself. To learn more about what’s been whispered, follow Dawnwalker’s social media. 

To close this month's Community Bulletin Board, here's a question from our Discord :

 Is the story centered around the main character only, or do the side characters actually matter?

The game is centered around Coen, but to tell meaningful stories it's essential for us to have a strong cast of characters.

So, you can definitely expect other full-fledged characters who will have their own motivations, backstories, emotions - and who might impact Coen and his story as well.
