Hunters

Hunters are humans that have been clued in on the supernatural and have made it their duty to hunt them down to protect the unsuspecting humans that supernatural creatures typically prey upon. In Riverbank, a few families have generations of hunters that have made it vital their children take up their job.

Weapons
Hunters have an arsenal of weapons at their disposal. They have a considerable amount of lethal weapons as their main line of defense against the supernatural, typically lacing the bullets with that of a weakness against some of the more stronger and immortal creatures (such as vampries and werewolves). A bow and arrow is considered one of the most popular weapons among the hunters.

Stealth
For generations, families teach their boys (trained to be soldiers) the art of stealth. They have since mastered this skill with trial and error, always learning the best ways to camouflage and stealthily approach their victims depending on their supernatural classification.

Hand-to-Hand Combat
It is expected that hunters that are taught how to handle a weapon should be able to defend themselves by using skills in the martial arts department or whatever it takes to take down their opponent when disarmed of their weapon. This is the last line of defense unless the hunter or huntress prefers to go in on their opponents with their fists rather than their weapons.

Mortality
Hunters are not actually supernatural creatures but are considered to be listed in the bestiary because of their considerable involvement in the community, although their presence is not welcome. Thus being human, hunters may be killed by any means that would normally kill an ordinary human.

Magic
Most creatures, including humans, are susceptible to the powers of witchcraft. Depending on the spell, humans take the most damage compared to other supernatural creatures, hunters being humans, this applies to them as well.
