    Dev Diary #1 - The Village of Medresti

    How the real world shapes Sangavia

    When building the world of Vampires: Bloodlord Rising, we often found ourselves looking beyond pure fantasy and into the deep roots of European folklore. One such place of inspiration was a small settlement, Medrești.

    Deep in Romania's Apuseni Mountains, many small settlements, just like Medrești, existed in isolation from any major trade routes or roads. In these places, folklore was a way of understanding the world. Beliefs guided the actions, thoughts, and daily lives and stretched even beyond death.

    Historically, death was taken very seriously, not just because of faith, but also out of fear of what might happen if something went wrong.

    That's where the belief of strigoi starts.
    Strigoi were believed to be similar to vampires - they rose from graves, drained the vitality of loved ones, and caused illness and unrest. But their haunting was much more personal - they only went after their own bloodline.
