                                GIFTED HUMANS

Gifted humans have ended up on the right side of magic. They’re blessed with things such as beauty, intelligence, or, in some cases, magical gifts. Once gifted, it’s very hard for the gift to be revoked. It can, however, be watered down by a conflicting curse. Gifted individuals are sometimes also referred to as graces. The Madrigal’s are famous for being gifted; at every fifth birthday, they are gifted with a unique power due to a witch bonding with family matriarch Alma. Other gifted humans include Harrison Dios.

                                           HUMANS

Humans are average beings, born without any gifts or the ability to harness magic. Many do not know about magic or supernatural beings, and the ones that do all react to the knowledge in different ways. There are three subsections of humans: the gifted, the cursed, and the hunters.

Physical Appearance: Varies from human to human.

Aging: A human will age at an average rate.

Abilities: Humans have their humanity still in tact. A human can also wield weapons to defend themselves. 

Weaknesses: They have no powers. 

Rivalries: Humans are really against every species as they are the lowest on the totem pole and need to stay alive.

Feeding: Humans gain sustenance from the four food groups, and are healthiest when eating balanced meals three times a day.

Mating: Humans may mate with any species, though they may not reproduce with all of them.

Home: Humans choose to live on land most of the time, usually close to their loved ones.

                                            SIRENS

Sirens are creatures of the water, fearsome half-fish, half-human predators that breathe underwater and feed on humans for sustenance. Sirens are extremely rare and there is only one recorded in Walt’s Landing’s History before a pod recently came to town. Known sirens include Ariel Triton, Isla, Blue, Coral and Marina. It is even more rare to see a male siren.

Physical Appearance: Sirens grow their tail after their first victim. The more a siren feeds on humans, the more like a siren they become. A fully developed siren will have a long tail, scales scattered across their face and body, webbed hands and ears, sharp teeth, vertical pupils, fins, and gills.

Aging: Aging seems to slow when feeding frequently. 

Abilities: Sirens can breathe underwater. A few notes of a siren’s song is enough to make anyone fall in love, and just through speaking they can get any gender to listen to them. They are especially quick and strong in water. They can also shed their scales to appear human at will. 

Weaknesses: The longer a siren goes without feeding the weaker they get. They will experience fatigue and nausea, and will eventually fade away into sea foam. The farther from water a siren lives, the weaker they will be. Sirens must drink water with salt in it, or they will fall ill if on land for an extended period of time.

Rivalries: No rivalries to speak of. Anyone who steps in the way of a siren and their target is considered an enemy.

Feeding: Though a siren may eat fish occasionally, they must feed on a human’s life essence in order to survive. They may also consume the flesh of a human, but this will not sustain them.

Mating: A siren must mate with a human in order to give birth to siren offspring. After raising the offspring for a couple of years, the mother then leaves the siren child to fend for themselves.

Pods: Once they reach maturity, a young siren will find a pod to join. Pods usually consist of anywhere from 3-5 sirens.
