Daemonica is a 3D action-adventure game with RPG elements that was developed by Czech companies RA Images and Cinemax.
In the prologue, the player learns that Nicholas is the son of Roger Mortimer, 1st Earl of March, and Queen Isabella of France, who were responsible for the death of King Edward II of England.
When he returned to England he met the beast hunter Clarice, who taught Nicholas his trade until they worked on a case in York, when she made a mistake which cost her her life.
Nicholas then received a letter from the mayor of the small town of Cavorn, where a couple had disappeared, summoning him to investigate.
He then goes to the crypt where Fabius reveals that in fact he is trying to release the demon in order to control it and use its abilities for good, attempting to convince Nicholas to help him.
If they decide to help Fabius, the demon possesses him; he then returns to Rome where he strengthens the Church and new Crusades set out across the world.
The game informs the player that since then, the townsfolk of Cavorn have been praying for Nicholas' soul and lighting candles for him and Helen.
