Game Story Overview

Bloodstained: Ritual of The Night begins in the city of Arvantville in the year 1783 where the rise and colonization of various cities by demons have been defended by Alchemists by creating and sacrificing Shardbinders: humans that have been transplanted with crystals that attuned them to demonic power.

With the success of vanquishing the demons, countless innocents have died and all Shardbinders were presumed to be dead. However, two have miraculously survived the chaos: Gebel, a boy who has miraculously survived the rite. And Miriam, a girl who has fallen into a slumber and was spared during the sacrificial rite.

Ten years later, the demons have once again been summoned and inhabit a great castle, where Miriam also awakens. Upon learning that Gebel (a Shardbinder who has now lost his humanity) is the man behind releasing the chaos and awakening the demons, she decides to put an end to it by venturing in the Demon Castle to defeat Gebel, and to save all of humanity, and herself before the world is consumed.
