Hello, aeman here

So I got this idea of adapting Bloodborne into Warcraft Universe, i.e. Taking A Warcraft Lore, Dissecting and Reassembling it into A Bloodborne Inspired world and making a Founding of Durotar-style RPG campaign out of it

And a few days ago i was watching a bit of Path of Exile 2 gameplay and was thinking, if making a soulsborne in Warcraft 3 too much of an impossible task, what if i tried to make it into a POE2-Like gameplay. They got rolling mechanics, so why not? But because this idea is too big for a person that barely can do art or even anything, so why not i put it here first.
Another note: i never played bloodborne cuz i never own a ps4/5 but been playing bloodbornepsx for a while and watching vids related to it


Bloodcraft
(title will change)

Settings
Set in an alternate universe, where the Bloodcraft timeline differs from the main Azeroth timeline. The player will ventures to the Gilneas, a Gothic, Victorian-like Kingdom that is imposing and spreading. Twisted cobbled streets, and towering spires, all entangled by an oppressive atmosphere of decay and dread. This once proud kingdom, was now ravaged by a mysterious plague. Monstrous beast and paranoia have taken the streets. During the Outbreak, Gilneans formed a mob and hunt those who were deemed to be infected, the beasts and outsiders. Those who were unlucky met their gruesome end, often executed.

Lore
Before the Plague started, Gilneas was a home to the mysterious cure-all remedy, known as the Wyrd water. It was ministered and distributed by the institution called the Order of the Water. The Order was a religious organisation founded in Gilneas by Argyle (Arugal), a former Dalaran Scholar and pupil of Master Anton (Antonidas), who discovered a special concoction of Wyrd water within the ancient labyrinths that could be used in a healing process known as Aqua Treatment. While Anton didn’t trust the water’s healing properties, Argyle believed it to be a miracle to be shared. Accompanied by the others, Argyle left Dalaran and founded the Order in Gilneas, distributing the special water across the city.

Plot
Play as The Hunter, an nameless, voiceless protagonist that ventures to the Gilneas in search of cure for an unspecified disease with Gilneas Aqua Treatment. Seeking ‘True Wyrd’ the protagonist signs a contract that made them to vow as the Hunter for Gilneas.

Main Character

The Hunter
the protagonist of this story, they are a foreigner who are aware of the True Wyrd, and goes to Gilneas, wishing to retrieved and utilized it to transcends the hunt.

Minor Character

Gilian, Arathian Princess
A minor character but is important to the lore, she sort of like Phtumerian Queen Yharnam from Bloodborne

Got any suggestion? Feel free to share with me and do tell me anything that could help me getting a crack at it

imo "Founding of Durotar" style campaigns are always welcome )) I am actually surprised we have so few of them after all the years.

Wheither its worth it or not to try to implement some complicated combat mechanics to such campaign, I honestly dont know. Some may like it, some may not.
