Storyline

In Tarnish, you play as a kavkem (a nocturnal descendent of Cretaceous raptors) on a planet inherently hostile to you. Tarnish is the mythology embraced by your local culture, wherein sunlight is a corrupting influence on the soul - and your clan believes it is their moral duty to protect the strange aliens that have recently arrived.

Unfortunately, 'protect' is a terrifying concept. Life for a kavkem is hard enough without having to look after someone else - however, if the alternative is to let the sunlight crush their souls and twist them into yet more enemies you must face, the incentives to help are still there.
