Players will be able to select the character of their choice from the following pre-gens based upon the Birds of Prey comic series: Black Canary, Huntress, Lady Blackhawk, Vixen, Hawkgirl and Grace Choi. Prior knowledge of the DC Adventures system or prior experience reading the Birds of Prey comic books; the DC Elseworlds graphic novel JLA: Created Equal or watching the Justice League animated series would be a plus.

Blood Feud, a Mega Board Game is a highly thematic, team-based, strategic game that plays 4-32 players and is run by 1-2 storytellers who also interact and play in the Mega Board Game. The game is "Round-based" and each round is timed in real-time (such as the First Round being about 10 Minutes). As the game progresses, the rounds decrease in time making the game go faster and become even more thrilling!

As a player, you will play as one of the warring vampire clans such as Ventrue, Tremere, Gangrel, Toreador (and others) or perhaps you’ll choose to become one of the human factions fighting for their own desires, such as City Hall, the Mafia, or the Arcanum, with many more to choose from. Each has their own special powers, and unique background stories to help you get into character and play uniquely. Each faction also has unique goals in how they want to play the game asymmetrically which creates awesome replayability throughout sessions.
