## Description
Blood Bound is a social deduction game where you and your friends become vampires from two rival clans: the savage Clan of the Beast and the elegant Clan of the Rose. Each player gets a secret identity and unique abilities, and the goal is to figure out who the enemy team's Elder is to capture them. But beware: if you target the wrong vampire, your team loses instantly! The game is pure tension and bluffing, with attacks, negotiations, and special abilities that slowly reveal information. In 30 minutes, you'll laugh, scream, and doubt everyone at the table—perfect for large groups who love controlled chaos. Pro tip: trust no one, especially your best friend.

## FAQ
### What's the ideal player count?
6 to 12, but it works best with 8 or more. With an odd number, one player becomes human and the game gets slightly unbalanced.

### Is it hard to learn?
Not at all! The rules are simple, and everyone gets the hang of it in 10 minutes. The real challenge is figuring out who's bluffing.

### Does it need a moderator?
Nope! Everyone plays together without a narrator. Just make sure someone knows the rules well to explain them.

### Is there language dependency?
The game has minimal text and it's easy to memorize, so even the English version won't be a problem.

### Is it good for Werewolf fans?
Yes! It's like Werewolf on steroids: faster, more chaotic, and with special abilities. If you love social deduction, you'll adore this.
