The Blood of Dawnwalker Quests

This page provides a detailed list of all quests available in the game The Blood of Dawnwalker, to help you track your progress and find details about specific tasks.

Main Quests

Main quests in The Blood of Dawnwalker focus on Coen's central goal: rescuing his family from the vampire lord Brencis. After the introductory prologue, the main story opens up and gives you considerable freedom in deciding what to do and when. A major part of the campaign involves confronting three vampire vassals - Ambrus, Bakir, and Xanthe. You need to carry out activities against their courts and eventually face each of them before progressing toward the final confrontation with Brencis.

All Good Things

All Good Things is the first main quest in The Blood of the Dawnwalker, which begins right after starting a new game. The quest begins with a cutscene where Lunka - the main character's sister - unexpectedly wanders off into the forest, and Coen decides to follow her.
