Monsters are the children and descendants of Eve, and other supernatural creatures. Although referring to many different species, some share a point of origin, and traits. They are supernatural creatures with extraordinary strength and powers and abilities. They commonly prey upon humans.

## **Eve's Descendants**

These are the monsters that were confirmed to be created by Eve. When they die, their souls are sent to neither Heaven nor Hell, but to Purgatory.

### Alphas

These are the supreme monsters, due to them being the very first of their species, which means they greatly outclass all of their children in terms of strength and abilities no matter how powerful their children are. They are very rare, which means the majority of hunters have never met one, nor will ever. The fate of most is unknown following Lazarus hunt for Alphas and through them, Purgatory.

* **Alpha Vampire**
* **Alpha Shapeshifter**
* **Alpha Werewolf**
* **Alpha Skinwalker**
* **Alpha Djinn**

### Elite Monsters

These monsters are of the strongest type (under the Alphas), either by being physically stronger than the rest, have extremely powerful abilities or are so unique that it is hard for hunters to hunt them.

* **Dragons** (rare)
* **Phoenixes** (rare)
* **Jefferson Starships** (extinct)

### Common Monsters

These monsters are significantly weaker than the elite or their respective Alphas.

## **Hierarchy**

### Alphas

Alphas are the first of each monster, and the direct descendants of Eve. As a result, each one is more powerful than any other member of their species. They are the creators of the rest of their species, and as such are the undisputed leaders of their kind.

### Packs

Although many monsters are solitary, some, particularly the intelligent ones, form groups or packs, where they live and hunt together in "nests". Pack leaders serve as the bosses of these groups. This is not always a definite rule however, as some prefer to live on their own as well.

## **Becoming a Monster**

Monsters are made in a great variety of ways. While this is not a complete list, it shows some of the more common methods of monster reproduction.

### From Eve

The original and most effective method is by tactile contact with Eve, the mother of all. She had the ability to turn humans into monsters or hybrids with a mere touch.

### From Over Monsters

The most common method, is however simply by sexual reproduction between monsters, which Djinn's, Ghouls, and presumably all other monsters, whose method hasn't been stated do. Werewolves mostly reproduce by biting, but they can also reproduce sexually with other werewolves.

* **By Biting**

While exceptionally rare, it's possible for a monster transformation to be reversed.

## **History**

Monsters have hunted men since the beginning of time. According to the Alpha Vampire, he was the thing that humans feared when they huddled around a fire. Eve created the first monsters, the Alphas, who in turn went on to father the rest of their species. Although powerful (at least in the modern era), most monsters preferred to hide from humans or blend into their society, taking great care to avoid detection, especially by hunters. Because most of them could assume human form, they could easily pass as a regular human to the untrained eye. Additionally, although some could be detected through video footage in security cameras, most people disregard the anomalies they see as a technical problem or malfunctioning of the device.

Many monsters targeted isolated locations and communities as their hunting grounds. In some cases, they would attempt to reproduce, in addition to simply hunting men for food.
