The Darkest of nights is upon us, dear Hunter...

Bloodhunt is a rules-lite tabletop role-playing game made with the incredibly accessible 24XX system by Jason Tocci.

In this grim gothic setting, players take on the mantle of hunters who wield powerful weapons and dangerous witchcraft to hunt down the nightmarish monsters that threaten our very reality.

The Bloodhunt PDF includes...

  • Rules for play 
  • Instructions for creating brave Hunters
  • Tables for generating deadly Weapons and eldritch Spells
  • Tables for creating unfathomable Monsters to hunt
  • Locations, Equipment, Additional Threats and MORE!

Bloodhunt is inspired by (but is in no way affiliated with) the video game Bloodborne™

Omg I want to play this! But everyone who I do TTRPG with is online. Is there a Foundry VTT for this?

Almost all of my TTRPG friends are online as well! Unfortunately, there isn't a VTT for this. Given the game's simple setup and easy rules though, I find just doing an online voice chat works perfectly well. I use a private discord server with my friends where we can have a voice chat going, a text chat for logs and notes, and either Jamspace or Canva whiteboard to keep track of ongoing things for the session. I've even run it via play-by-post without any hassle. A VTT would be definitely be sweet, but I haven't found myself desperately needing one for this or other 24XX games. I hope you and your TTRPG buddies can give it a go!

They system seems very similar to SWADE a bit... I'm wondering if I can translate it to that. Either way, I'm buying! Thank you for doing this, it looks amazing :)

Oh yeah, this is a very rules-lite system that can be easily transferred and expanded upon in another system. It's been ages since I've played a game in the SWADE system; I hope it goes well! Thanks for the interest and for buying!

Wonderful game, had a great time running the 1.1 version for my buddies at our Halloween night. New Elden Ring dlc had me come looking to see if there's been any updates but I can't seem to find a download. Is there anywhere else to grab the 1.2 version?

Drat! I re-uploaded the files incorrectly. The 1.2 PDF should be accessible now. Thank you so much for pointing that out! And good luck with the new Elden Ring DLC. I've been eagerly awaiting it since it's announcement and am super excited to sink my teeth into it.

Yay, super excited to give it a good read through and hopefully run a session this weekend! Good luck fellow tarnished, I hope to join you in the lands between some day :p

This game is crazy good! I’m tweaking some stuff here and there and adding some gifts and curses! It’s so solid, well written and fun to play! 

Thank you so much! I really appreciate the kind words.


That's so cool you've been making your own gifts and curses. Part of why I love 24XX so much is the ease of creating and adding content to it. I've toyed around with the idea of making a free little supplement that has curse tables, NPC tables, and more additional content to round out the whole package. It's just the issue of finding the time to write it all out, haha.

Ran this successfully at a game night, with random people. Went well. 👍


A suggestion to others: I edited the pdf, and put the last page as second. When printing double sided that gave me a GM page and a player page to hand out. (I also printed duplicates of the player page)

I'm so, so glad to hear it went well! That made my day.

Really great tip about changing the order of the pages to make player sheets and a GM sheet; It didn't even occur to me how easy and effective that is...

I know it's hard to get feedback. 😅

I've been running a lot of oneshots at the local culture house, and last time I ran a Dark Souls L&F hack. The (few) extra rules in a 24XX game made character generation a little slower, but led to some choices based on specific character skills later on.

The "quest" tables were good, and the best part of most 24XX games. Love me a good table. :3
