I don't know if I should with my RP loadout, but I admit I am interested. My usual go to would be a vamp, but a werewolf sounds good for a change of pace. Are you looking for only one player per species?

I'd be happy to have you if you decide to join. I don't want to restrict us to just one player per faction, so no worries about that. We wouldn't be the only active group, so it's okay even if we don't get representation for every faction in our main cast.

About Lycanthropy: I've been thinking that a man becomes a werewolf when he is subject to an ancient curse - one that forces him to share his body with a vengeful animal spirit. Sometimes the conditions for the curse come about naturally, almost as a matter of fate. Others are born into the curse, for once it has taken hold, its effects are hereditary. Sharing a body with the animal spirit grants greatly enhanced perception, and a surplus of vitality. Bearers of the curse are healthy individuals, and due to its effects, their natural lifespan is roughly doubled. Werewolf families tend to keep large private hunting grounds to try and contain the evidence of their transformations. Those less fortunate might live on the run, haunted by their sins or dogged by investigators.

That might give you some things to consider as you think about a character. Others might be thinking about vampires, so I'll share a few notes about them too.

Vampires never age, and are generally beautiful and graceful. Though I have it that Vampirism first started around ~1500, so that serves as an upper limit for age. They are several times stronger than humans and extremely agile. They are technically undead, and they can do some creepy stuff like walking along the walls or ceiling, or practically disappearing in darkness. They are weakened by sunlight, but not injured by it. Bad things happen to vampires if they are deprived of blood for a long time. Once turned, they are no longer capable of casting witch magic, or of having children. They can sire new vampires by turning humans, however. The vampire population has grown over the centuries, and it is now the dominant faction in the underworld. There is a big conspiracy to cover up their crimes and even their existence.
