Werewolf

Shown in the series werewolves are people infected by a particular virus transmitted through blood. Werewolves turn into big doglike creatures at night during the full moon, however, there is a way to trigger this transformation at any other time. The infected person remembers everything that happened to him at the time when he was in the reversed condition. Even in human form a werewolf has great strength and endurance, and a sensitive sense of smell.

The way to get rid of this disease is not open or does not exist. Infected do not experience any disease-related discomfort, however they are considered a danger to society and destroyed as soon as discovered.

A mystical creature with hooves and its tracks

To mystical creatures with hooves in this series include the fauns – humanoid creatures with horse legs and twisted RAM horns. Generally they are larger people and superior to them in physical strength. Fauns can engage in sexual relations with people. About whether to receive the children of such a Union, the series does not say.

Mental abilities silenos little different from human, but like fairies, they don't own the technology.

Fairy

Shown in the series the fairies look very similar to people. The only significant difference are similar to strahinya wings growing from their backs near the shoulder blades. These wings allow the fairy high and fast flying, including hang out in one place. In the series mentioned that the bones fairies hollow, which makes them much easier people.

Fairies are physiologically very close to humans, so that they are able to join with them in sexual relations and have children. The descendants of such unions the wings are underdeveloped and do not allow them to fly normally. During intercourse fairy with another fairy, or blood on the wings of the luminous point. During sex fairies this is not happening.

The race of the fairies a lot of old men. Fairies age slowly and live much longer than humans. They have writing, know how to build buildings of stone, but their technical progress has stopped.

Except fairies and fauns in the series casual shows and other live in a city full of magical creatures, including centaurs, trow and kobolds. The latter paid more attention than others.

The kobolds are small Goblin like creatures. They don't speak the language of the people, however, have reason and understand everything they say. The kobolds have tough skin and prefer not to wear clothes, but wear suits during performances in street theatre.
