Night World People


Vampires: Are powerful, blood-sucking immortals that can heal from any injury, except those inflicted by wood. Wood can seriously harm and even kill them. Burning is also deadly to vampires.Vampires run faster, see better, and even hear better than humans. They can also control minds, even erase memory. Sunlight however, inhibits all vampire powers, especially in newly-made vampires. Vampires need blood to survive. Quite simply, drinking more blood means being more powerful.

There are two types of vampires in the Night World. Lamia (Lay-mee-uh) vampires are the vampires who were born as vampires. Made vampires are the ones who were born human but were bitten by a vampire and all made vampires look under the age of 19 because anyone over the age of 19 will not survive the change. All vampires are governed by the Night World Council.Some famous vampires from the Night World include Ash Redfern, Maya, Hunter Redfern, and of course, John Quinn.


Werewolves and Shape-Shifters: Are shape-shifters that can shape-shift back and forth between their human form and their wolf form. When werewolves hunt, they eat the internal organs of humans, such as the heart and liver. For this reason, Night World laws specifically state werewolves may only hunt and kill other animals. Werewolves who disregard this law are considered renegades, and Night People have the right to kill them. Werewolves dislike silver and fire. Both can kill them.Shape-shifters are Night People who can shape-shift back and forth from their human form to their animal form. The most powerful shape-shifters are the dragons. Other shape-shifters include werewolves, panthers, and leopards. All shape-shifters have the senses of the animal they call, which are often extraordinary. They can smell differences between foods, feel things many times the intensity than humans, and can hear both higher and lower pitches. They also have excellent night vision. All shape-shifters are governed by the First House of the Shape-shifters.


The witches: Of the Night World are actually humans but humans with special powers in their blood. Witches practise the art of witchcraft. They use herbs, crystals, candles, and other equipment, to cast spells.
There are two types of witches in the Night World. Those witches that know their heritage and practise the art are said to be true witches. Those witches that do not know their heritage and thus do not practise the art because they do not know they have the power to do so are called lost witches. Most of the witches seceded from the Night World. Many followed their Maiden, Mother, and Crone and joined a Circle called Circle Daybreak. Only the darkest witches of Circle Midnight still belong to the Night World. These witches no longer answer to the Inner Circle; they are governed by the Night World Council.
The Harman family is the most prominent family of witches in the Night World.


Humans: Are the creatures that live amid the Night World. Most humans know nothing about the Night World or about Night People. But some do. Night World laws state that if a human finds out about the Night World, all those involved in sharing knowledge must be killed. Therefore, the humans who are aware of the Night World know better than to tell other people. Night People are everywhere and there is no telling who is human and who belongs to the Night World. Humans who have a Night Person as their soulmate, usually join Circle Daybreak.

Old souls:Humans who have been reincarnated are known as old souls. Old souls are not immortal. They are able to die during their current life but are born again during a different period of time, as a completely different person.Sometimes, an old soul may be born with identical appearances or even remember previous lifetimes. If an old soul is made into a vampire, they cannot be reincarnated anymore.


The dragons: Are the oldest and most powerful of the shape-shifters. They were put to sleep a long time ago by witches because they were considered too evil and destructive. Since the dragons were put to sleep, the First House has been commanding the shape-shifters of the Night World.
The strength of a dragon depends on how many horns it has on its forehead. The more horns present, the more powerful a dragon is. An average dragon has no more than three horns while a powerful dragon like Azhdeha can have as many as five. The way to kill a dragon is by removing all the horns present on their forehead. When all the horns of a dragon have been removed, it is no longer immortal.Dragons are the only shape-shifters able to send out black energy. They also have the power of telepathy.


Ghoul: There are other creatures of darkness that are found in the Night World besides the typical types of species (vampires, witches, shape-shifters). One other such creature is the ghoul.
A ghoul starts out as a human who then exchanges blood with a vampire. However, as their body begins to transform, the human does not receive enough vampire blood to complete the change. Instead, they convert into the walking un-dead. They become brainless and hunt for only one thing; human blood. They also start decaying and smelling. A ghoul cannot survive for more than a few weeks because their body just degenerates.
