Mythical Creature

Mythical Creatures, or more commonly referred to as Mythics, are a classification of humanoids that are typically monstrous in nature. Scions, Dragons, Werewolves - all of them are classified under Mythical Creatures.

Mythical Creatures are incredibly dangerous to the common person. Not only physically, but mentally as well. Their existence is primarily covered up and hidden from the public at large. If they were to reveal themselves, or their existence made aware, the world would grind to a halt. Mass panic and fear would ripple across Pavonas.

This isn't to say that the public is unaware of their concepts. Most often Mythics are the center of theatre and story, being romanticized into tales of drama and entertainment. This is both a blessing and a curse as very real and potentially nation crippling threats can be ignored or trivialized.

The Secret War
The Secret War is a war waged by a sect of the Aetius Order. Unmarked bounty hunters scour the land looking for any signs of Mythics, hunting them down and exterminating them with extreme prejudice. Most often these bounty hunters spend their entire lives researching their chosen targets. A Draco hunter would spend significant portions of his time training in their preferred form of martial arts. A Scion hunter would train specifically to disable the feeding slits, and so on.
