Fera: Changing Breeds

== Chapter One: Introduction ==
Fera are the Children of Gaia, and as such predominately worship her. This is however not universal, and the culture of Fera varies wildly from region to region, even for those who all do follow Gaia- for many do so in their own ways.
There are many breeds of Fera, and their population thrives in remote locations across many continents. Their civilization in Southern Mai Xion is prosperous, with a wealth of gems and a healthy economy. But this is not true everywhere, and there are many that the Fera in Mai Xion would not even consider ‘true’ Fera.
== Chapter Two: Lycan ==
A prime example of this is the Lycan. Many Fera refuse to acknowledge the Lycan as Fera because many of the Lycan have forsaken Gaia, especially those of Northern Valendor. Despite their distrust of them however, they are Fera. They are her guardians, her warriors, created to be her fangs and claws.
The Lycan are divided nearly into two clean categories. Those of the South follow Gaia, and live at one with nature. And those of the North follow Malar, and have been heavily influenced by many years of captivity and servitude under the Vampires.
== Chapter Three: Types of Fera ==
=== Werecats ===
Werecats were created by Gaia as a tool to combat the evil that spilled freely from the Spirit Portals in Saigon. They are agile and fierce warriors, but hundreds of years of intermingling with Humanity has left the species divided. Those that resided in the cities slowly lost their Gaia-given traits, while those who stayed in the wilds became more isolated and extreme in their ways.
Location: Mai Xion
Roles: Warriors, Fighting off Spirits
Weaknesses: Gold, Catnip, Onion
=== Werewolves ===
Werewolves were created by Gaia during the Vampire War to combat the threat that the Vampires posed to the world and the balance of nature. However following their creation, the Werewolves were divided into two groups by a rift that was formed by an earthquake.
The Werewolves stuck in the south ventured back to fight alongside the Humans against the Vampires, while those stuck in the north attempted to continue their mission in flanking the Vampires. Their mission failed unfortunately, and they were captured and enslaved. During these hundreds of years of captivity, their culture was influenced heavily by the Vampires, and they forsook Gaia, instead worshiping their own beastly deity known as Malar.
Location: Valendor
Roles: Independent, Guardians
Weaknesses: Silver, Wolfsbane, Magic Weaponry, Chocolate Poisoning
=== Werebears ===
The werebears are Gaia’s healers, tied to the Earth with a stronger bond than any other Lycan. The Werebears were believed to have discovered a way to bring life back to the Undead, and many were hunted by Vampires seeking this knowledge. In the end, this false rumor led to hundreds of casualties, and reduced their population greatly.
Roles: Healers
Weaknesses: Silver, Urplems, Honey Addiction
=== Wererabbits ===
Wererabbits were created as cautious teachers for the other Fera. Protective and defensive, they are very wary of spirits and are taught to never trust them. They are the most aware of the workings of spirits, never making promises, deals, or bets with them. As natural tricksters however, preferring to teach through pranks, they do on occasion find common ground with more moderate spirits who share their mischievous inclinations.
