The Curfew & Lock-In
​Rule: All students must be inside their respective dorm buildings by 10:00 PM.
​The Penalty: At 10:01 PM, the magical wards activate. If you are caught outside, the gargoyles on the roof are authorized to pick you up and drop you directly into the Headmaster’s office for immediate detention.
​2. Form Restrictions & Suppressors
​Rule: True/Primal forms, full transformations, and flight are strictly forbidden inside the hallways and common rooms.
​The Exception: Werewolves and other shifters undergo involuntary transformations during full moons. On those nights, they must report to The Bramble Hollow’s reinforced subterranean basement, or wear magical dampening cuffs if they choose to remain in their rooms.
​3. Diet and Hunting Bans
​Rule: Hunting on campus grounds is an automatic suspension. All dietary needs must be met through the cafeteria or dorm dispensaries.
​Specifics: Vampires may only consume synthetic or donated blood provided by Dr. Moreau. Shifters requiring raw meat must get their portions directly from Helga and Olga in the kitchen—no stalking the campus wildlife.
​4. Inter-Dorm Access & Visitation
​Rule: Students from rival dorms are permitted in common areas until 8:00 PM, but they are never allowed inside individual student sleeping quarters.
​The Reason: Mixing contrasting elements (like putting an aggressive fire-aligned student from the Obsidian Spire into the illusion-heavy Mirage Pavilion) creates high risks of magical volatile reactions.
​5. Dorm Leader Authority
​Rule: The Head Dorm Leaders (Kaelen, Seraphina, Garrick, and Lyra) have absolute authority to dock "House Points" or assign chore duty for minor infractions.
​Enforcement: If a student challenges a Dorm Leader’s authority, the matter is immediately escalated to the connected teacher, which usually results in intensive manual labor (like cleaning Dr. Root's venomous plants).

Neutral Ground: Aethelgard Academy
​For the youth of every race, survival begins at Aethelgard Academy—a massive castle built on a floating island where all lineages are sent to train.
​To keep the campus from erupting into total racial warfare, the outer perimeter is guarded by Church Grims—spectral shadow-hounds that can instantly smell lethal intent and paralyze anyone smuggling dark magic. Within the walls, Demigods naturally dominate the elite combat tracks, while High Elves command the arcane libraries. For the predatory students, a massive, state-of-the-art Blood Bank is built directly into the subterranean levels beneath the school, ensuring the Vampire, Arachnid, and Nogitsune students can feed safely without endangering the Goblin and mortal thralls who maintain the campus.
​Choose your lineage, mind the vulnerabilities of your flesh, and watch your back—in Aethelgard, power is the only true currency.

​The Ruling Courts & Hierarchies
​True political power is concentrated within four major global factions. Races without a formal court—like Goblins, Fungus-folk, and Harpies—operate purely on survival instincts.
​The Dragon Assembly (Imperial Sovereigns): Ruled by a supreme council of 5 True Dragon Elders. Their society is a strict, prideful hierarchy descending from the absolute Sovereign Ancient, down through the High Broodlords, the Humanoid Shifters who walk among mortals, and finally the front-line Drakes and Wyverns.
​The High Elven Solar Conclave: Governed by 12 Arch-Mages from soaring crystalline spires. They follow the absolute word of the High Monarch, backed by elite Solar Magi and Fleet Commanders who guard their borders against the lesser races.
​The Gloom Court (The Underdark Alliance): A ruthless subterranean matriarchy ruled by a council of 7 Dark Elven Matriarchs. Grand Matriarchs dictate the laws of the deep, enforced by deadly Shadow Assassins and elite Arachnid-Humanoids (Driders) who serve as the royal guard.
​The Court of Nightmares: A hidden, chaotic tribunal of 3 Nine-Tailed Nogitsune (The Void Trinity). They command corrupted Void Foxes and manipulate trapped mortal souls through psychological terror and dark illusions.

the blood accords: Predatory ruling classes—specifically Vampires, Arachnids, and Nogitsune—hold the legal right to claim lesser races or humans as property.
​The Servant Class: Those under the Accord fall into two categories: Thralls (premium, personal property bound directly to a master via blood or mind magic) and Servants (the general labor force, like Goblins and Orcs, who handle cooking, mining, and maintenance).
​The Blood Banks: To prevent absolute public chaos, major cities and strongholds house sterile, heavily guarded Blood Banks where unregistered mortals and low-tier servants are kept as live, revolving feeding sources for the elite.
​The Cold Iron Law: Nature’s ultimate equalizer. Raw, unrefined iron completely nullifies the magic of Elves, Fae, and Beastfolk, instantly burning their flesh upon direct skin contact.

The Territories
​The Obsidian Crags: A treacherous, volcanic mountain range rich in rare star-metal. Massive Wyverns rule the smoking peaks, while powerful Orc clans control the heavy ground fortresses and mining operations below.
​The Whispering Canopy: A colossal, multi-layered forest kingdom. Wood Elves claim the middle canopy, spiritual Tengu guard the ancient mountain shrines, and savage Harpy flocks nest on the outer rocky cliffs.
​The Subterranean Hollows: A massive, glowing network of underground caverns. The Dark Elves and Arachnids rule from sprawling obsidian cities, while chaotic Goblin tribes build messy scrap-towns in the outer tunnels.
​The Bioluminescent Groves: A damp, sunless valley perpetually blanketed in thick spore clouds. Quiet Fungus-folk commune with the earth on the valley floor, while armored Beetle and Wasp humanoids fly aerial patrols to protect their shared hive networks.

THE SUPERNATURAL COURTS & HIERARCHIES
​(Note: Only the top-tier ruling races have formal global courts. Goblins, Fungus-folk, Harpies, and Reapers do not have courts and operate by survival instincts or cosmic duty instead.)
​1. The Dragon Assembly (The Imperial Sovereign)
​Total Court Members: Exactly 5 True Dragon Elders representing the major draconic bloodlines.
​The Hierarchy:
​Sovereign Ancient (The absolute ruler)
​High Broodlords (Regional rulers who control the skies)
​Humanoid Shifters (Noble-born dragons who walk among mortals)
​Drakes & Wyverns (The front-line muscle and aerial guardians)
​2. The High Elven Solar Conclave
​Total Court Members: 12 Arch-Mages who govern from crystalline spires.
​The Hierarchy:
​High Monarch (Chosen by starlight)
​Solar Magi (Master arcanists and advisors)
​Fleet Commanders (Keepers of the border walls)
​Common Citizens & Wood Elves (Artisans and forest scouts)
​3. The Gloom Court (The Underdark Alliance)
​Total Court Members: A council of 7 Matriarchs ruling the subterranean depths.
​The Hierarchy:
​Grand Matriarch (The highest-ranking Dark Elf)
​Shadow Assassins (Elite executioners)
​Arachnid-Humanoids / Driders (The high-tier royal guard and web-weavers)
​Thralls & Blood Bank Captives (The lowest tier)
​4. The Court of Nightmares (The Corrupted Spirit Court)
​Total Court Members: A chaotic tribunal of 3 Nine-Tailed Nogitsune.
​The Hierarchy:
​The Void Trinity (The three ancient Nogitsune)
​Corrupted Void Foxes (Kitsune who have fully embraced malice)
​Two-Tailed Wild Rogues (Wild foxes forced into alliance)
​Bound Phantoms (Mortal souls trapped by nightmares)

NATURAL LAWS & SERVANT DYNAMICS
​The Law of the Food Chain: Predatory apex races (Vampires, Arachnids, and Nogitsune) hold the legal right to claim lesser races or humans as property.
​Thralls vs. Servants:
​Thralls: Bonded directly to a master via blood or mind magic. They are treated as premium, personal property and often volunteer for the role in exchange for protection.
​Servants: The general labor force (primarily Goblins, Orcs, and common Beastfolk) who handle physical labor, cooking, and maintenance.
​The Blood Banks: Heavily guarded, sterile facilities located in major cities. They house unregistered mortals and low-tier servants who are kept as live, revolving blood sources to feed the ruling elite safely without causing public chaos.
​The Cold Iron Law: A universal physical law. Raw, unrefined iron completely nullifies the magic of Elves, Fae, and Beastfolk, burning their flesh upon direct contact.

Arachnid-humanoids (such as Driders, Arachnes, and spider-folk) fuse human anatomy with spider traits, typically presenting as a human torso seamlessly merging into the massive, hairy body of a giant spider, or as bipedal humanoids with multiple pairs of multi-jointed legs tearing out of their backs, additional clusterings of black, slitted eyes, and hidden, venom-dripping fangs.
​Abilities & Powers
​They can scale vertical walls and ceilings with absolute, terrifying speed, and they produce incredibly high-tensile silk webs from spinnerets to create traps or swing through environments. Their bite delivers a potent neurotoxic or necrotic venom that can instantly paralyze a target's nervous system or dissolve internal tissues from the inside out.
​Behavior & Traits
​Deeply predatory, patient, and calculating, they prefer ambush tactics over direct confrontation, often weaving massive, complex webs across dark caverns or dense forest canopies to await their prey. They operate with a cold, detached intelligence, forming tightly controlled, insular societies or hunting entirely alone as apex territorial stalkers.
​Vulnerabilities
​Their heavy, multi-legged anatomy relies on hydraulic fluid pressure rather than standard muscles, meaning a deep puncture to their lower spider joints can cause them to rapidly lose pressure and collapse, while their hyper-sensitive compound eyes make them highly vulnerable to sudden, blinding flashes of light.

Demigods possess a striking, flawless human anatomy that inherits the breathtaking physical perfection or intimidating presence of their divine parent. They look entirely human but often bear subtle, telltale celestial marks—such as eyes that shift colors with their mood, veins that faintly pulse with golden ichor under intense strain, or a natural, magnetic aura that causes the air around them to crackle with energy or shimmer with light.
​Abilities & Powers
​They wield a fraction of godlike power, granting them incredible superhuman strength, speed, and durability that far surpasses mortal limits, along with an accelerated healing factor. Their specific magical gifts mirror their divine lineage: a demigod of the sea might command hydrokinesis (water manipulation) and survive deep ocean pressures, while a child of war commands immediate battlefield tactics and a terrifying, weapon-mastery instinct the moment they hold a blade.
​Behavior & Traits
​Tragically caught between two worlds, demigods are driven by intense, mortal emotions amplified by divine pride, often leading to a restless desire to prove themselves through dangerous quests and heroic feats. They possess a natural defiance against authority, a deep-seated vulnerability to tragedy, and a fatal flaw—such as excessive hubris or fierce, blind loyalty—that frequently dictates their destiny.
​Vulnerabilities
​While immune to many mortal diseases, their half-human biology means they can still be physically wounded, aged, and killed by conventional means. Their divine scent acts as a powerful beacon that relentlessly attracts supernatural monsters and predators across long distances, and they are completely bound by the ancient laws of fate, making them vulnerable to divine curses or weapons forged specifically to pierce celestial flesh.

​Orcs are towering, muscular humanoids built for raw physical endurance, possessing tough skin that ranges from dull olive greens to ash-greys, prominent jutting lower tusks, broad heavy brows, and thick bone densities that allow them to sustain and shrug off immense physical trauma that would easily kill an average mortal.
​Abilities & Powers
​They command unmatched brute strength and a heightened adrenaline response known as a "berserker rage" that temporarily grants them near-immunity to physical pain, allowing them to fight through severe injuries while gaining enhanced speed, dark vision, and an accelerated natural healing rate.
​Behavior & Traits
​Deeply rooted in a proud, merit-based warrior culture, they form fiercely loyal tribes or clans that heavily value physical might, combat prowess, and ancestral honor, often clashing with neighboring societies over territory while strictly respecting those who manage to best them or stand their ground in battle.
​Vulnerabilities
​Their reliance on raw physical aggression makes them highly susceptible to being outmaneuvered by complex mental illusions, psychological warfare, or tactical traps, and their intensely competitive nature can easily be exploited to breed internal tribal infighting or trigger reckless, easily baited behavior on the battlefield.

Dragon-folk are colossal reptilian titans—ranging from traditional six-limbed western dragons and four-limbed Wyverns (wings connected to the arms) to serpent-like eastern dragons with no wings at all—who possess the supernatural ability to shift into a humanoid frame that retains patchworks of impenetrable scales, sharp horns, reptilian slitted eyes, and heavy lashing tails.
​Abilities & Powers
​They command devastating elemental breath weapons (such as fire, frost, or lightning), possess an impenetrable scaled hide that shrugs off standard physical weaponry, and hold immense physical strength in both forms, alongside a rare "dragon fear" aura that can instantly paralyze lesser mortals with sheer dread.
​Behavior & Traits
​Driven by an ancient, intensely proud, and often arrogant mindset, they are fiercely territorial creatures with a compulsive biological instinct to hoard wealth, magical artifacts, or unique treasures, and they tend to view surface mortals as fleeting, fragile beings unless they prove their worth in combat or wit.
​Vulnerabilities
​Their heavy dragon physiology features a single, vulnerable "soft scale" over their heart or throat that bypasses their armored hide, and they can be severely weakened by specialized dragon-slaying weapons forged from rare materials like star-metal, or incapacitated by complex physical binds that pin down their massive wings and tails.

Kitsune are fox-beastfolk whose power is directly tied to their spiritual age, manifesting with beautiful human frames, expressive fox ears, and a variable number of fluffy tails ranging from standard wild foxes who max out at two tails, to divine kitsune who can reach nine, while the corrupt Nogitsune bear dark, shadowy pelts, sunken predatory eyes, and an aura of pure malice.
​Abilities & Powers
​They possess powerful illusion magic (Kitsune-bi) that allows them to generate supernatural fox-fire, mask their true beast features to completely blend into human societies, and manipulate minds, with the cruel Nogitsune specializing in feeding on pain, possessing mortal bodies, and weaving dark, unpreventable nightmares to break their targets.
​Behavior & Traits
​While common wild foxes are deeply mischievous tricksters and protectors of nature, the standard Kitsune operates with a strict sense of honor or karmic balance, contrasting sharply with the chaotic, entirely malevolent Nogitsune who actively plot political ruin, thrive on tragic human despair, and refuse to form any genuine bonds.
​Vulnerabilities
​They are incredibly vulnerable to having their illusions shattered or their powers completely sealed by holy barriers, sacred shinto charms, and direct exposure to pure rock salt, and their wild instincts can sometimes give them away, as they possess an uncontrollable, deep-seated fear of hounds and domestic dogs.

Beastfolk are humanoid beings who possess a standard human body structure but retain distinct, permanent animal traits, such as soft fox ears and fluffy tails (Kitsune types), broad feather-lined wings growing from their backs (Avian types), sleek axolotl gills and fins, or soft owl plumage, with their physical features often perfectly matching their animal counterpart's color patterns and textures.
​Abilities & Powers
​They inherit enhanced sensory arrays and physical traits directly tied to their animal lineage, granting them exceptional night vision, hyper-acute hearing, or flawless aerial agility, alongside unique biological perks like underwater respiration through hidden gills, silent flight capabilities, or natural camouflage that blends into specific habitats.
​Behavior & Traits
​Deeply expressive and instinct-driven, they possess behavioral quirks matching their animal ancestry—such as ear-flicks to show emotion or a natural instinct to nest or burrow—and they tend to form tight-knit, community-focused clans that value physical agility, harmony with the environment, and sharp survival instincts.
​Vulnerabilities
​Their heightened senses leave them profoundly vulnerable to sensory overload from deafening noises, blinding flashes, or overpowering odors, and they can be severely restricted by physical entrapment (like clipping flight feathers or pinning a tail), while also facing distinct seasonal challenges like intense molting or bouts of winter lethargy.

Reapers and grave guardians—including humanoid Grim Reapers, the Celtic Ankou, and Church Grims spectral, shadow-like black dogs manifest as towering, skeletal or pale humanoids clad in dark, tattered hoods, or as massive, shadowy phantom hounds with glowing red or green eyes that patrol cemetery borders.
​Abilities & Powers
​They possess the absolute authority to sever the silver cord of life, perceive the exact remaining lifespan of any mortal, turn completely invisible to the living while remaining perfectly tangible to the dying, and use standard tools like scythes or spectral jaws to forcibly reap souls, while Church Grims can emit an ominous death-knell or howl that physically paralyzes intruders.
​Behavior & Traits
​Operating as cosmic psychopomps (soul guides) and protectors of the dead rather than malevolent executioners, they are bound to guide departed souls safely to the afterlife and fiercely guard consecrated churchyards against grave robbers, necromancers, and demons, with the phantom hounds maintaining a silent, eternal vigil over the burial grounds they are anchored to.
​Vulnerabilities
​They cannot claim a soul before its pre-destined time has officially run out, can be temporarily held at bay or bargained with through sheer wit, complex riddles, or acts of self-sacrifice, and their spiritual presence can be heavily disrupted by sacred salt lines, silver weapons, or cleansing daylight that temporarily weakens their link to the mortal plane.

Invisible beings and spiritual entities—such as Ghosts, Poltergeists, Phantoms, and unseen supernatural predators—lack a permanent physical body and are composed entirely of ectoplasm, raw soul energy, or distorted space, making them completely undetectable to the naked human eye unless they choose to manifest as cold mist, translucent apparitions, or fleeting shadows.
​Abilities & Powers
​They can seamlessly phase through solid matter, possess mortal bodies or inanimate objects to turn them into weaponized vessels, trigger extreme temperature drops in their immediate vicinity, and manipulate telekinetic energy to hurl heavy objects or tear structural environments apart while remaining completely unseen.
​Behavior & Traits
​Often bound to specific locations, ancient artifacts, or unresolved emotional trauma from their past lives, these unseen entities operate on a completely different sensory plane, acting either as quiet observers of the mortal world or as highly volatile, malevolent forces that feed on human fear, confusion, and paranoia.
​Vulnerabilities
​Despite their lack of a physical body, their spiritual essence can be severely disrupted and temporarily banished by scattering pure rock salt, using specialized iron weapons to tear through their energy fields, or exposing them to sacred spiritual seals, while a ghost can be permanently put to rest by locating and completely destroying their original mortal remains or anchoring objects.

Gargoyles and stone-born sentinels—including animated grotesques and temple guardian statues—are heavily muscled, winged humanoids carved from solid rock, possessing razor-sharp stone talons, horned heads, and leathery bat-like wings that can fold tightly around them to mimic a frozen, inanimate building fixture.
​Abilities & Powers
​They possess immense physical durability and strength that allows them to shrug off standard mortal weapons, the ability to glide silently from soaring heights, and a supernatural "stone sleep" state where they can turn entirely into indestructible, lifeless statues during the day to heal any structural fractures or damage.
​Behavior & Traits
​Functioning as fiercely loyal, nocturnal protectors of sacred cathedrals, ancient castles, or hidden rooftops, they maintain a silent, stone-faced vigil over their designated territory and will ruthlessly hunt down any malevolent spirits, thieves, or intruders who violate the sanctuary they are sworn to guard.
​Vulnerabilities
​They are completely paralyzed and bound to their stone forms under the light of the sun, making them entirely defenseless against heavy siege weapons, pneumatic drills, or blunt sledgehammers that can shatter their frozen limbs, while advanced erosion magic or acid can permanently dissolve their rocky anatomy.

Giants are colossal, towering humanoids ranging from muscular, earth-hewn titans and stone-skinned brutes to the terrifying Gashadokuro—a massive, 15-part-tall mythological skeleton formed from the combined bones of people who died in battle or starvation and left unburied.
​Abilities & Powers
​They possess catastrophic physical strength capable of altering landscapes, uprooting mountains, and crushing armies, alongside unique supernatural traits like the Gashadokuro's ability to become completely invisible until it strikes, catch its prey silently, and bite off a victim's head to drink their blood.
​Behavior & Traits
​Often driven by a ravenous, predatory hunger for human flesh, these primordial forces act as solitary territory-guardors or highly destructive entities that wander desolated battlefields and mountain ranges at night, fueled by deep ancestral pride or the accumulated wrath of the unburied dead.
​Vulnerabilities
​Despite their overwhelming size, they can be brought down by blinding their eyes, exploiting structural weak points (such as the nape of the neck or shattering a skeleton's joints), driving them into deep pits, or utilizing powerful protective amulets and shinto charms to ward off their spiritual malice.

The Snow Woman (Yuki-onna) appears as an impossibly beautiful, tall woman with deathly pale, translucent skin that blends into snowstorms, piercing violet or icy blue eyes, and long black hair, clad in a seamless white kimono and leaving no footprints in the snow while lacking a physical body heat or even a human shadow.
​Abilities & Powers
​She can manipulate severe winter elements to summon blinding blizzards, glide effortlessly across snow banks without touching the ground, transform entirely into a localized cloud of mist or snow to escape danger, and exhale a terrifying frost breath that instantly freezes a mortal solid.
​Behavior & Traits
​Dwelling in remote, frozen mountain passes, this serene yet deeply unpredictable spirit acts as a merciless predator who lures lost travelers off their paths to siphon away their vital life force or freeze them to death, though she occasionally spares those who show her immense kindness or respect.
​Vulnerabilities
​She is extremely weak to intense heat sources, meaning she can be severely injured, forced to flee, or entirely melted into a puddle of water if exposed to roaring fires, hot springs, boiling liquids, or warm, heavily insulated environments.

The Windigo is a towering, emaciated humanoid titan with deathly pale skin stretched tight over a skeletal frame, possessing sunken glowing eyes, jagged fangs, chewed-away lips, a decaying stag head with sharp antlers, and elongated limbs with ice-tipped claws that smell of rotting flesh and house a heart of solid ice, instantly growing larger with every human it consumes.
​Abilities & Powers
​It can project a mind-altering psychosis that drives isolated humans to cannibalism, summon blinding blizzards and sub-zero temperatures, and perfectly mimic the voices of loved ones to lure prey while moving with absolute silence and superhuman speed.
​Behavior & Traits
​Born from a malevolent winter spirit possessing a human who resorted to cannibalism, this entirely solitary and fiercely territorial apex predator is driven by an eternal, agonizing curse of insatiable starvation that forces it to hunt the deepest frozen forests for flesh.
​Vulnerabilities
​It can only be permanently destroyed if its ice heart is pierced by silver or hot iron, melted, and its entire body is completely dismembered and cremated to ash, though ordinary fire can be used to hold it at bay and scorch its frozen flesh.

​Neuro-Manipulation: Can read minds, wipe memories, and control human actions by manipulating the electrical signals in a mortal's nervous system.
​Superhuman Physics: Possess immense physical strength, blinding reflexes, and perfect night vision.
​Behavior & Traits
​Blood Fuel: Blood is strictly the battery power for their nanobots. Without it, the nanos go dormant, and the vampire slips into a comatose, desiccated state.
​Diet & Habits: They can eat regular food and drink alcohol for pleasure, though it offers no actual nourishment.
​Lifemates: Bound to a perfect genetic match. When met, mind-reading sparks, mutual mental immunity occurs, and an intense emotional bond is unlocked.
​The Council: Governed by a hidden vampire society enforcing absolute secrecy. Mortal exposure results in execution by Council Enforcers.
​Vulnerabilities
​Sunlight: UV rays don't turn them to ash but overload the nanobots, causing agonizing burns and draining their blood fuel. They stay nocturnal to survive.
​Myths: Crosses, holy water, stakes, coffins, and garlic are entirely harmless.
​True Death: They can only be killed by decapitation or total cremation, which destroys the brain's central command before the nanobots can repair it.

Appearance & Physiology
​The Dual Form: Possesses a flawless, highly attractive human guise with slightly athletic, predatory undertones (sharper canine teeth, intense eyes).
​The Beast: Shifts into a massive, bipedal or four-legged wolf-hybrid monstrous form, boasting thick fur, razor-sharp claws, and a terrifyingly powerful jaw.
​The Shift: The physical transformation is a brutal, rapid rearrangement of bones, muscle tissue, and vocal cords, traditionally triggered or amplified by the cycle of the full moon.
​Abilities & Powers
​Superhuman Physics: In both forms—but exponentially boosted when shifted—they possess immense physical strength, blinding speed, and the ability to leap incredible distances.
​Apex Senses: Highly acute, supernatural senses of smell, hearing, and night vision, allowing them to track prey over miles or detect a human's emotional state through scent.
​Supernatural Healing: Possesses an accelerated healing factor that knits flesh, mends broken bones, and fights off any human illness or poison in minutes.
​Behavior & Traits
​The Pack Instinct: Deeply tribal and social. They operate under a strict pack hierarchy governed by an Alpha, relying on telepathic pack-bonds, shared empathy, or vocal howling to communicate.
​The Curse/Bite: The condition is infectious, passed to humans through a deep bite or scratch that alters their DNA, though it can also be a hereditary bloodline.
​The Animal Instinct: Driven by heightened aggression, territorial pride, and a raw, predatory urge that becomes incredibly difficult to suppress during lunar cycles.
​Vulnerabilities
​Silver: Their ultimate biological weakness. Contact with silver burns their skin, and a silver bullet or blade prevents their supernatural healing, proving instantly fatal if it strikes a vital organ.
​Wolfsbane: A toxic herb that severely weakens them, clouds their senses, or paralyzes them if ingested or introduced to their bloodstream.
