Civilians
These are the normal people in the current world today; Civilians have no idea about what really lurks out in the darkness and what really preys on them come nightfall.
Civilians have their weaknesses but they also have their own personal strengths which make each human his or her own individuality, Civilians may not have the brute strength but unlike anybody else they have their own unlikely ability of Hope which make them the strongest of the races.
They are also the backbone of society which keeps the world turning; they tend to be blind to the darker side of humanity, the corrupt humans who run with gangs or do deals with the supernatural elements. Due to not having supernatural powers, Civilians are regarded as nothing but toys to the supernaturals.
Strengths
- Blend in with society
- Government Figureheads
- Ignorance is Bliss
Weaknesses
- Weak
- Slow
Hunters
The Hunters are a different group of humans who have been inducted into the knowledge of Supernatural beings, they have fought against them since as long as humanity can remember growing in numbers and trying to keep the threat to normal humans down to a minimal. Along the years they've evolved and even if sometimes their numbers diminished they would always regroup..
Not too long ago a select amount of amount of Hunters grew tired with the current policies, and they went and started their own group called the "Extremists" these people are much more vicious than regular hunters meaning to kill their prey with any means.
They have also gathered technology from both sides of the opposing forces, due to the Lieutenants dodgy under the table deals. involving in them acquiring UV Ammo and Wolfsbane to use against Vampires and Lycans alike.
Strengths
- Blend in with society
- High-tech Gadgets and Equipment
- Hidden Base
Weaknesses
- Hunted by Lycans, Vampires, and the Government
- Unsung Heroes
Lycans
The Lycan race is one of the races; they like to pride themselves as the brute strength and work regard each member of the pact as family. If a member of the pact breaks the family truce they would be executed. The Lycans on the eve of a full moon can transform themselves into a Lycan beast (more or less an upright wolf) and then use their enlightened senses to seek out prey.
Feasting upon Human flesh allows them to regenerate significant wounds. They are stealthy hunters and will always stick to the shadows instead of straight up attacking. They are holding out on the truce hoping war doesn't break out again as they lack the numbers to hold their own against the vampire army.
Even outside of their Lycan-form they have the ability to track average humans and vampires. They will always keep the scent so they can forever track their prey.
Pureblood Lycans
They are immortal. Born of the union of two Lycans (turned or pure), Pureblood Lycans can transform at will into either their true form of a werewolf, or of a normal wolf to aid their adaptation in society. They feel no pain in transforming. They are far superior in the moon's light though, which increases their strength and speed. However, come the full moon, they cannot stop themselves from changing to either Lycan beast or wolf. The call of the wild is too strong for Purebloods to resist.
All Lycans, even Pureblood, can be killed through burning, drowning, decapitation, being shot through the heart or brain with a silver bullet, crushing and any other act that destroys their bodies. A high concentration of silver (e.g. from a silver bullet) will leave a lasting mark, even after a Lycan reverts to human form.
However, Lycans can bear regular bullets or other wounds better than humans when in animal form. Their beast form (not wolf) has very dense bones, and coupled with their ability to heal after feeding, makes using non-silver ammunition a bad idea.
Lycans in human form are still stronger and faster than regular humans, but only half as much as their beast form.
Turned Lycans
Not immortal (Lifespan: 400 years).
Turned Lycans are far more common. They can transform at will, and are not forced to change at the full moon. They can change only into a Lycan beast, and the change is a painful thing. It does get easier over time. Slowly.
Strengths
- Tough and strong - can handle abuse
- High stamina - can run for hours in wolf/beast form
- Fast
- Keen sense of smell, sight and hearing
- Immortal(*Purebloods Only*)
- Use a wolf form as well as Lycan beast(*Purebloods Only*)
- Control Change at Full Moon(*Turned Only*)
- Can heal most major injuries through feeding.
Weaknesses
- Hunted
- Not as fast as Vampires
- Do not integrate with society well
- Loss of control at full moon (*Purebloods Only*)
Vampires
Vampires are, contrary to myth, not undead. They have the ability to reproduce just as humans and Lycans do. The Vampires pride themselves on their intelligence and their power to manipulate humans easily. This ability has allowed them to take many risks within the current world. Due to their competitive nature, they are always looking to recruit potential members to bring their ranks above that of the Lycan.
Bloodlust grew over time, which lead to the vampires seizing control of the world's blood supply for their own personal need, while some vampires have set up "Blood Harvesting" farms to keep their own supply of blood many of the vampires work together to keep order within the coven.
Vampires do not have as much brute strength as their dog peers, but they have intelligence, like the Lycans. Once they have feasted on blood, they can heal themselves, and they are known for their cunning, speed and agility.
The Vampires continue to grow their numbers so that when they finally are ready for the eve of war, they can eliminate the Lycan race.
All Vampires, even Purebloods, can be killed through burning, drowning, decapitation, being shot/staked through the heart or brain, crushing and any other act that destroys their bodies. A high concentration of UV rays is also fatal.
Regular sunlight is not. Neither are crosses, holy water, garlic or other demon-repellent mythos. Vampires can also heal wounds not caused by UV-rays fairly quickly after feeding and are capable of handling more physical damage than humans or Lycans in human-form.
Pureblood Vampires
Pureblood Vampires are immortal. Born of two Vampires (turned or pure), they have the ability to grow wings at will and become a demonic monstrosity as told in legend.
Turned Vampires
Not immortal (Lifespan: 400 years).
Turned Vampires are more common, and do not have the ability to turn into their beast form. However they are still quick and strong--
But for all Vampires, with their power comes a bloodthirst they cannot ignore.
Strengths
- Agile and fast
- Strong - can handle more injuries than humans
- Immortal(*Purebloods Only*)
- Change into demonic beast (*Purebloods Only*)
- Can heal most major injuries through feeding.
Weaknesses
- Not as strong as Lycans
- Lust for blood can dominate mind
- Do not integrate with society well
