North American Folk-lore based monsters

1. Werewolves/Lycanthropes
 Infectious: Yes
 Origins: Originally unknown, from other lycans.
 Description: Strong and resilient; Lycanthropes can suck up damage all day. This only increases as they age; the older a lycan is the more abuse it takes to slow one down. Silver is your best defensive and offensive weapon against them as it causes a violent allergenic reaction in their systems, this reaction too decreases with the age of the creature. Their bite is needed to spread the bacterial infection, extremely strong antibiotics have been known to kill the infection if taken early enough; but once full onset there is no known cure. Werewolves are the most common breed of Lycanthropes but many other animals have been found; including many big cats, rats and several other rodents, and the bear.
 PuFF: Approx: 50,000 a head this does not include Were bears; they are most often docile when left alone and only become a issue when they are threatened.

Elves of the American nation have become very “White Trash” in nature as one researcher has put it. Their current queen is Bobby-Joe Flaunters and has signed a peace accord with their mortal enemies the Orcs after extreme pressures from the B.M.C.; with this peace treaty both races have been given protective status. There is currently no open PuFF on either races, individuals that break this accord are removed from the protective status and will have appropriate PuFF bounties placed upon them by the B.M.C.
