What kind of were animals did you have in mind. I mean in one clan we can have more than one were animal, but we can also have more than one were clan group that specializes in a different animal as well.

As for the day time I think we should keep them in school. The setting, upper east side New York is just full of high class schools. This doesn't mean they're all A students of course, and maybe because of the recent turn of events maybe they won't attend as much. For the most part we should at least let them graduate I mean what they do isn't really a job, it's more like a forced chore.

As for our clan I don't think it would make sense for them to hire the teens. I mean it would be fine for them to have a front business of some sort, but I doubt they'd just hire teens like that. I mean for the most part they're going to leave their main fighting force (the one's that go out at night to fight against other clans) alone. The higher ups are the one that deals with the more political and business side of things. I big focus of the story is about how the teens deal with their daily life, and the added hecticness of having to fight monsters each night. 

Warlock/Witch group? Hmm when you said that what came to mind was clan that works mostly with chemicals and drugs, but the way they do their stuff is similar to how traditional wizards and witches do their stuff. How would the biological disposition go though? And yeah we'll stray away from occults because for the most part I'd like to stray away from traditional "spell and sorcery magic" and go more into an supernatural scifi magic. 

Would a group that's inspired by monster tamers work? In our story it would translate as a group that creates highly dangerous and genetically enhanced monster animals linked to a member of their clan.

We'll need names for these clans.
