Humankind has battled against monstrous energy since the dawn of times, for the monsters are born from human sins. The monsters are mentioned in every religion and culture for a reason. Negative energy in general attracts and breeds monsters. The monsters come in all shapes, sizes, and forms to prey on the weak. Most monsters are very similar and sometimes it’s hard to see the difference between all of them. Some of the monsters were born this way, some were infected and some chose the rotten life. Some of them are rather harmless, some of them are extremely dangerous. We use a scale from 1-5 (type 1 being the least dangerous) to identify how dangerous these monsters are. No matter how humanoid the monsters look, a hunter must not hesitate to banish monstrous energy back to the pits of the underworld.
MONSTERS
Demons
The nastiest of all classes, every hunter's nightmare, and the group that Eximo deals with the most! A hunter should never take a demon alone for they are very malicious and dangerous beings. Some of them take human forms. They really love to disguise themselves as children due to trying to trick humans into thinking that they are innocent beings. They feed off of negative energy and plague the unfortunate by bringing even more calamity. They often possess people and force them into doing things that they would never do, anything from a little petty crime to murder.
Werewolves
Some are born as lycanthropes (rare and inherited), some are bitten. Those who are born as such usually have more control over their shifting. Those who are bitten cannot control their shifting if met with extreme emotions such as anger or grief. They also lose control during full moon. Newly infected newborns might shift in and out of the two forms without control. Don't be fooled by their humanoid appearance or past humanity they had. They need to be exterminated. They are feral and pose a danger to the humankind. Due to their reckless nature, they have to be put down.
Vampires
Vampires are charming beings that use said charm to lure in their prey. They are often charming, open, witty and attractive. After they have seduced you (not necessarily in a romantic way) they start draining your life-energy. Some vampires choose to drink the blood of the corpse too. If they choose to bite you before you die, you’ll become one of them too. They do avoid garlic but not for the reasons you think. It’s because they know that no one will kiss a person with breath that smells like garlic!
They can eat normal human food and can walk in the sunshine contrary to the popular belief, but they avoid these things. Food makes them feel sick and they eventually throw it up because of their inability to digest it. Sunshine makes them feel lethargic and weak but does not burn them. They avoid holy grounds and religious symbols, verses of holy scripts and holy regalia make them weak. Vampires never use the word ‘God’ either and when they have to write it, they style it as ‘G-d’. Some of them can turn into ravens, crows, bats or snakes. These beings do not age but they can be killed with holy water or blessed fire.
Nymphs
These are a bit harder to classify. There are all kinds of nymphs, i.e forest nymphs, and water nymphs. Usually, they are tied to a location and Eximo often has missions where we have to exterminate certain lairs of these nymphs. They like to disguise themselves as beautiful women or something you really desire. They trick and take advantage of human weaknesses. If you let a nymph seduce you or sign a contract with them, they will eventually drag you in their natural environments and feast upon your body and soul. Often seen hanging around succubi and incubi of their area in their free time.
Incubi & Succubi
Depicted as extremely attractive men and women, they seduce people into laying with them. They prefer the night too and often either scare their prey to death when they are sleeping or seduce them. They are most often the reason behind your sleep paralysis. Some people say that all incubi and succubi are the offspring of Lilith, fallen angels or demons. Some are many of these monsters mixed together. They are hard to spot because attractive human beings exist too. They are capable of reproducing with human beings but long-term relationships rarely exist with them. Succubi and incubi are dangerous but can be killed the same way normal human beings are. They age two times more slowly than normal humans.
Ghosts
These are spirits of the dead and damned that are confused and keep dwelling on this Earth and in this world. There are harmless ghosts and dangerous ones. We rate their dangerousness from a scale of 1-5, 5 being the famous poltergeists. Harmless ghosts can be exterminated by aiding them in finishing what they had left unfinished in this world. Dangerous ghosts are usually forced back to the next step of their cycle. Be careful not to anger ghosts, they are sensitive and can climb the scale if you manage to piss them off.
Fairies
Usually harmless tricksters, fairies can be a real pain in the backside for some people. They often hide the other pair of your sock or perhaps hide your keys when you’re in a hurry. Fairies love the tension between human beings. They are known to especially target couples but are extremely dangerous when targeting small children. They pretend to be imaginary friends and lure children into danger (“I’d shove the fork in the socket if I were you”). They can take the form of cute little children that they have killed or ugly, small winged creatures. They’re afraid of fire, hot things such as boiling water and iron.
Witches and Warlocks
Usually human beings that have made a contract with one of these monsters or even greater evil like the devil himself. Most witches and warlocks are people who were targeted by the monsters and bargained for more time to live by signing a contract. Sometimes they hold these creatures inside themselves and use their power in exchange for keeping them safe and giving them a permanent place on Earth. Some families have born witches and warlocks that don’t need any contracts to have the same powers. These are very rare. Witches and warlocks can be divided into dark witches that use dark magic and light witches that use light magic. They are not some fancy superpowers but usually just curses and necromancy or healing, powerful prayers and blessings. Eximo permits both to join their ranks but dark witches and warlocks are under very close control.

ORGANIZATIONS
Amoveo Resistance
Amoveo resistance has been around since the 11th century. No one knows who established the A.R, there are many legends involving all kinds of deities, legends, religious figures, and world leaders. They work tightly with the Vatican and the governments of all countries. They are semi-underground since most civilians don't know about the existence of these organizations or even the monsters who plague them to stop panic from brewing. Amoveo is a network that has divided into multiple branches in all countries and funds all these branches, their equipment and such. The current leader of A.R is Berthold Chasha from the Israeli branch.
U.S branch
Established in 1839 by Chelsea Brennan, this branch manages Eximo. The main office is in Phoenix, Arizona. The current leader is Hattie Dott.
Eximo Annihilation Services (E.A.S)
E.A.S was established in 1982 by Mitchell Tsosi and Jennifer Young. E.A.S had worked under many different names before that. Known to be rather unpopular in the eyes of the A.R and U.S branch due to the number of funds they eat up compared to how little they solve without wreaking havoc. Works a bit like a family business and is very lax on religion and even species of their employees.
