"You can bury blood.
You can rename it.
But it still remembers what it is."
Dane Grimm is a hunter shaped by discipline and silence, a man who moves through the world with calculated precision and little wasted motion. Hardened by loss and trained under a rogue mentor, he is pragmatic, observant, and slow to trust; every action is deliberate, every word measured. There is something slightly off about him to those who look too closely: eyes that catch the light a little too sharply, reflexes just a fraction too fast, an instinctive stillness like a predator holding its breath. Though he walks the path of a hunter, he is not needlessly cruel; beneath the stoic exterior lingers a quiet moral code and a guarded loyalty toward the few he allows near. Whispers of something older seem to follow him. Something wild and sleeping just beneath the surface.
"I was taught to kill monsters.
No one warned me some of them would look like me."

Cuyotl ⋆ Zhyra ⋆ Bibiana
Born in a traditional witch coven, the elders wanted to keep the coven line pure. No outsiders were permitted to have children with coven members unless an arranged marriage was agreed on. The elders were strict and rarely agreed on such a thing. Three women decided to risk it all and have offspring with old ones of various regions in the world. Their children, powerful and animalistic, bore traits from their fathers and power, which surpassed the covens' levels. Fear spread, and the children were shunned, each suffering in the hands of the coven.
Cuyotl . . . . . Coyote Witch
The elusive coyote who left the coven in search of answers. Drawn to deserts and their spirits, Cuyotl realizes that searching for answers may not be the only thing she's doing. Instead, she is possibly searching for herself in the process.
Will she find the answers she desires?
Will she find herself in the process?
Zhyra . . . . . Snow Leopard Witch
The snow leopard who doesn't remember what happened that day. She doesn't even remember blacking out. All she remembers was seeing her mother's body on the floor, mauled. And she was covered in the woman's blood, frozen on the floor herself. When some of the townspeople barged in, they were shocked at what they witnessed. Deeming her unsafe, she was due to be executed but escaped.
What truly happened that day?
Will she ever find out, or will it forever remain a secret?
Will the past come back and haunt her one day?
Or will the townspeople hunt her down before then?
Bibiana . . . . . Maned Wolf Witch
The shackled maned wolf, who is the only one of the three remaining in the coven. When her mother was tired of being shunned, she sold off her only daughter to one of the older witches, and in return, she was allowed to be part of the coven once more. Now Bibiana remains enslaved, abused by the family who she was sold to.
Will she ever be free?
