Human weakness at its basic level, They are slow to change. In our everyday lives, we can see that, how so many get set in their political view, their religious, their moral and that is it for them. They will defend it to the death. You may even do it yourself on certain topics. Its an aspect of Humanity we all get and understand. We also all understand the need to think about us. Our pain, our family, our livelihood when in comparison to others. It’s something we all do from time to time, even if we don’t mean to. These are human flaws. It’s make us not perfect. And that’s ok.
They do matter in this world, as these set the foundation for all the hate in the world. Now before I even touch up on this, I am going to remind everyone of something I really haven’t before. We have DARK roleplay. When I say dark, what I mean is we are ok and will touch on roleplay styles that do deal with violence, murder, disagreements of permanence, hate and sex (both positive AND negative forms). As players here at Ebon Ridge, you need to understand that these are a part of this roleplay world and that they will happen at some point to some character. It’s not a happy, friendly world. All the time. You got that? Good! Now Let’s define hate.
When we say hate, we mean it in its purest most embedded forms. This is the hate you see the United States divided in currently over immigrants. This is the hate of religious groups. This is the hate you see over race, over gender identification, over sexuality. That hate. The hate held for someone not because of who they are, but because of WHAT they are.
Humans that hold this deep sense of hate in the Supernatural world, they do this for ALL supernatural. It’s a belief. Nobody wronged them. They merely feel that everything that isn’t 100% Human is morally wrong to them. Every human that befriends a supernatural is being lead astray. Every Human screwing a supernatural is being corrupted in sin. Every Human born with something more than Human in them are abominations. That can be trained out of them! They need to be saved… and the one that manipulates magic? They too are willingly forsaking what is right and good in the world. This means, when you are a human focused on that type of hate, against the supernatural, you are just going to hate everyone regardless of who they are. You will hate them for what they are.
Weaknesses of all Hunters:
Speciest: All Hunters, no matter their background, will always have a blind discrimination against at least one type of Supernatural. Some hate ALL supernaturals, but at a minimum, to be a Hunter means to hate one of the Supernatural races no matter what.
Susceptible to all supernatural powers: It doesn’t matter how stubborn or strong willed you think you are. In a power match to ANY supernatural, the human will lose when alone. Most Supernaturals cannot control whole groups, hence why many humans often remain in groups to handle a supernatural. Alone they are weaker. Safety is in numbers!
Strengths of an Adult Hunter (age 18 – 100):
Group Mentality: When in a group, Humans tend to band together and work together as a unit towards a similar goal. This is what makes them so difficult to control for a long period of time for the Supernatural. All it takes for one to rally the group to feel that they are being mistreated and humans will rise up as a whole.
Resilient: Humans may be squishy in terms of everything, but they are resilient. They could be beaten near to death and still rebound with a vengeance. The human spirit is not to be taken lightly.
Coveted: This is the best power a human often forgets they have. Humans are the most coveted asset to a Supernatural’s world. When a human understands this and uses themselves as the best bargaining chips, then it is they that truly run the world. A lost human life is one less food source, one less help, one less extra eyes. A supernatural would be a fool if they didn’t acknowledge this of a Human.
