1. #1Dhampir

   Always on · Before character · Order 0

   Dhampir Age: 18 Gender: non-binary (9) Dhampir are the offspring of a vampire and a human. Extremely rare — vampire fertility drops drastically after turning. They inherit partial vampire traits: enhanced senses, slowed aging, night vision. But they keep human basics: a beating heart, the need for food, the ability to walk in sunlight (though it's uncomfortable).

   Blood thirst exists but is mild and can be suppressed through willpower. Neither vampire society nor human society fully accepts them. They occupy an uncomfortable middle ground — too dead for the living, too alive for the dead.

2. #2Hunters

   Always on · Before character · Order 1

   Hunters Age: 18 Gender: non-binary (9) Hunters are humans who specialize in tracking and killing supernatural beings. Some belong to hereditary hunter families — trained from childhood, armed with silver weapons and generations of accumulated knowledge. Others are self-taught individuals driven by personal loss.

   There is no unified hunter organization. Ideology ranges from hardliners who believe all supernatural beings must die, to moderates who only pursue individuals with confirmed human kills. A rare few have built working relationships with cooperative vampires or werewolves — which the rest of the hunter community considers treason.

3. #3Vampires

   Keys: vampires, blood sucker, undead

   Enabled · Before character · Order 2

   Vampires Age: 18 Gender: non-binary (9) Vampires are transformed former humans. Heart doesn't beat but the body functions. Core temperature 30-33°C, skin pale, cool to touch. They don't need to breathe but most fake it to blend in. Iris darkens toward red when hungry, returns to living eye color when fed. Fangs retract voluntarily — fully retracted, they look human.

   Blood is the only food source. Human blood works best. Animal blood sustains but causes long-term weakness. A starving vampire desiccates into dormancy until blood touches their skin. Senses far exceed human range: night vision, hearing heartbeats through walls, identifying blood type by scent. Strength 5-10x human. Wounds heal seconds to hours, but fire, sunlight, and silver wounds heal slow and painful.

   Age is the core power metric. Newborn vs. thousand-year-old ancient is execution, not a fight. Older vampires may develop extra abilities — mental suggestion, short-range teleportation, sensory sharing — varies by individual.

   Weaknesses: Sunlight is lethal (burns, then combustion). Silver causes chemical-burn contact damage and slow-healing wounds. Fire — highly flammable, slowest recovery. Decapitation or heart destruction for permanent death. Garlic, running water, crucifixes, invitation rules — real for some bloodlines, myth for others, no universal rule. Blood Frenzy: prolonged hunger erases rational thought, collapsing the vampire into pure predatory instinct attacking the nearest blood source.

   Transformation: victim drained near-death, then drinks the vampire's blood. Both steps required. Fledgling period lasts days to weeks — amplified senses, uncontrollable thirst, emotional instability. A Sire-fledgling blood bond forms: the turned vaguely senses their maker's location and strong emotions. Bond weakens over time but never fully disappears.

   Blood Bond: a human who drinks the same vampire's blood three times develops intense chemical-level dependency on that vampire — not love, addiction. Bonded humans instinctively obey and crave their vampire. Using blood bonds on humans to create thralls is common. Using it on another vampire is one of the worst violations in vampire society. Bonds fade without reinforcement over months to years.

4. #4Werewolves

   Keys: werewolf, werewolves

   Enabled · Before character · Order 3

   Werewolves Age: 18 Gender: non-binary (9) Werewolves shift between human and wolf forms. Human form looks normal but runs warm (38-39°C), strong build, heals several times faster, sharper smell and hearing. Emotional volatility is heightened — anger comes faster and harder. Physiology, not personality.

   Two shifted forms: full wolf (twice normal wolf size) and battle form (upright human-wolf hybrid, taller, clawed, muscled). Shifting involves audible bone restructuring and brief pain; experienced shifters do it in seconds. Full moon forces transformation regardless of will. New werewolves lose control on moon nights. Non-moon shifting is voluntary but drains stamina.

   Senses dramatically enhanced when shifted. Even in human form, a werewolf smells what coworkers ate for lunch and who's afraid. Metabolism runs extremely high — eat more, heal faster, but alcohol barely works and anesthetics wear off in half the time.

   Weaknesses: Silver is severe — burns on contact, silver weapons suppress healing entirely, must be removed before recovery starts. Silver is the only clean kill material. Full moon forced shift is a major exposure risk. Extreme emotion triggers involuntary shifting. Wolfsbane (Aconite) is toxic — causes weakness, blocks shifting, lethal in large doses. Some werewolves micro-dose it to suppress moon shifts, but it's addictive and damages the body. Pack dependency — isolated werewolves deteriorate physically and psychologically. Being a lone wolf is slow self-destruction.

   Heritage: Bloodline wolves are born to werewolf parents, first shift hits during puberty (uncontrolled, painful). Higher social status. Bite-turned wolves are humans bitten in beast form who survive — roughly one-in-three odds. Transformation completes over the first full moon cycle. Some bloodline purists view bite-turned wolves as lesser.

   Pack bonds are physiological — same-pack members vaguely sense each other's emotions and location. Alpha's emotional state bleeds into the whole group.

5. #5Old World Cities

   Always on · Before character · Order 4

   Old World Cities Vampire power centers cluster in old European cities — Prague, Vienna, Paris, London, Rome. Dense architecture, complex underground networks, thriving nightlife culture, and centuries of layered history make these cities ideal for hiding in plain sight.

   Beneath the streets, old wine cellars, abandoned metro stations, and church catacombs have been converted into residences, council chambers, and blood storage vaults. Some underground domains have been continuously occupied for five hundred years or more. The older the city, the deeper the vampires have dug in — literally and politically.

6. #6Wilderness Territories

   Always on · Before character · Order 5

   Wilderness Territories Wolf pack territories are usually on city outskirts or deep in rural areas — forests, mountains, countryside. Packs need open space for full moon runs and hunts, and distance from witnesses. Territory boundaries are marked by scent; an unknown werewolf crossing without permission is treated as a hostile act.

   Some modern packs have adapted to urban life, using motorcycle clubs, construction crews, or suburban communities as cover. But even city packs need a safe, open location for moon nights — a warehouse, a fenced compound, a stretch of woods within driving distance.

7. #7Neutral Ground

   Always on · Before character · Order 6

   Neutral Ground A small number of locations are recognized as neutral ground by all supernatural factions — specific bars, nightclubs, or private establishments where vampires and werewolves are forbidden from using violence. These places are typically run by intermediaries powerful enough that neither side wants to provoke them.

   Neutral ground serves as the supernatural world's back channel: intelligence trading, black market deals, secret negotiations between species that officially despise each other. The rules are simple — no fangs, no claws, no blood on the floor. Break the house rules and both sides will hunt you.

8. #8Underground Market

   Always on · Before character · Order 7

   Underground Market The supernatural black market trades in goods no legitimate business carries: blood bags (labeled by type and whether the donor was willing), silver ammunition, forged identity documents, wolfsbane preparations, ancient bloodline records, and hunter intelligence.

   No fixed location — operates as rotating pop-up markets or encrypted online networks. Currency is a mix of cash, favors, and information. The market doesn't care what species you are, only whether you can pay.

9. #9The Blood Council

   Always on · Before character · Order 8

   The Blood Council The Blood Council is the vampire world's highest governing body — at least in name. Composed of the oldest or most powerful vampires from each region, the Council's primary function is maintaining the Veil: ensuring vampire existence stays hidden from mainstream human awareness.

   Three core laws: no revealing your nature publicly, no mass or conspicuous human killings, no unauthorized turnings. Violators are hunted down.

   Actual Council authority varies by region — strong in old European strongholds, mostly nominal in the Americas and Asia. Younger vampires widely resent the Council's conservatism and rigid hierarchy. The institution runs on inertia, tradition, and the fact that the alternatives are worse.

10. #10Wolf Packs

    Keys: wolf packs, wolves, wolf

    Enabled · Before character · Order 9

    Wolf Packs The pack is the basic social unit of werewolf society. Each pack is led by an Alpha — not necessarily the strongest fighter, but the individual the group naturally defers to. Internal hierarchy exists but is far looser than vampire politics. A pack is more like a family than a government.

    Relations between packs range from friendly alliances to territorial hostility. There is no central werewolf authority — each pack governs itself.

11. #11Blood Clan Civil War

    Always on · Before character · Order 10

    Blood Clan Civil War The Blood Clan Civil War: the largest internal conflict in vampire history. A coalition of mid-generation vampires — centuries old but locked out of power — rose against their Sires and Elders over the oppressive hierarchy.

    The war lasted decades with massive casualties on both sides. It ended in a compromise: the Council was restructured, some of the worst old rules abolished, but the hierarchy's foundation remained intact. Over two centuries later, the Civil War is still the most sensitive topic in vampire politics. The fault lines it exposed have never fully healed.

12. #12The Species Conflict

    Always on · Before character · Order 11

    The Species Conflict The vampire-werewolf conflict has no romantic origin story. Two predatory species sharing territory, competing for the same resource (humans), each finding the other threatening. Werewolf blood is toxic to vampires. Vampire scent triggers instinctive alert in werewolves.

    History records multiple regional wars and constant skirmishes. The current state is an unstable cold peace — both sides tacitly agree not to cross boundaries, but friction continues and individual vendettas never fully stop. Cooperation between species happens but is rare, fragile, and viewed with suspicion by both sides.

13. #13Territory Rights

    Always on · Before character · Order 12

    Territory Rights Both vampires and werewolves operate on strong territorial instincts and a first-claim basis. A city is typically claimed by one or several vampire elders who control feeding rights, turning permissions, and local politics. Werewolf packs control the outskirts and surrounding wilderness.

    Outsiders entering claimed territory must announce themselves — vampires report to the local authority, werewolves present to the Alpha. Entering without notice is read as invasion. Territory disputes are the single most common cause of supernatural violence.

14. #14Silver Weapons

    Always on · Before character · Order 13

    Silver Weapons Silver is the most universally effective weapon material against supernatural beings. Silver bullets, silver-edged knives, silver-plated knuckles, silver chains — standard hunter equipment. Effect on werewolves is severe (suppresses healing completely). Effect on vampires is a burning reaction, painful and slow to recover from.

    Quality matters. High-purity silver weapons are expensive and hard to source. Cheap black market silver rounds may have insufficient content — hitting a werewolf with low-grade silver just makes them angrier.

15. #15Wolfsbane

    Always on · Before character · Order 14

    Wolfsbane Wolfsbane preparations are derived from aconite plants. Toxic to werewolves: ingestion causes weakness, inability to shift, and death in large doses. Hunters use it as poison or coat weapons with it.

    The irony: werewolves are also wolfsbane's biggest consumers. Micro-doses suppress full moon forced shifts. It works like sedatives for insomnia — effective but physically damaging and habit-forming. Long-term users develop tolerance and dependency.

16. #16Blood Supply

    Always on · Before character · Order 15

    Blood Supply Blood bags are modern vampire civilization's foundation. Sourced through infiltration of human medical systems, black market purchase, or privately operated collection stations. Bags mean vampires don't have to bite someone every time they feed, drastically reducing exposure risk.

    Quality varies widely. Fresh voluntary donations are premium. Hospital near-expiry is adequate. Long-frozen stock is like expired canned food — survivable but undignified. A minority reject bags and insist on live hunting, which Council law doesn't explicitly ban but will punish harshly if it causes exposure.
