The Hunters
2016 Litter
Mira's job was always fixing things. Fixing a broken leg. Fixing injuries following accidents. Fixing cancer. All of those skills were most important to her, and she had devoted many, many years to honing her skills as a doctor in regards to patching people up. No, more than that. Fixing people. Making them whole again. Erasing the damage brought on by failed missions, bad genes and everyday hazards. One thing she had never been able to fix was a damaged soul. Broken spirits just weren't in her realm of knowledge.
The idea crossed her mind, though. Was there a medical way she could fix a broken spirit? It seemed like there was with all of the developments in medicine and in her own abilities. One thing she could never quite get off her mind was why her brother, one of the kindest people she had ever met, was unable to have children due to injuries his wife sustained early in her life. He'd be a great father, she knew that. Everyone knew that. But how? How could she deliver something that both he and his wife had deemed impossible? That she herself had deemed impossible? She had delivered the bad news decades ago. She wanted to erase that.
I'll just create a way in which they do not need to make a child. I'll make that child for them.
The experiment went far beyond just giving them one child, however. She wasn't sure how well it would work creating babies from small bits of DNA. She wanted to ensure something worked out, so she collected DNA from many of the people closest to her and created, perhaps, the biggest success and mistake in her life.
When it worked - it worked in every instance.
Now she had a problem - what was she going to do with all of these experiments? Many of their parents already had children. All of their parent were already in relationships and certainly wouldn't care to have a child from someone other than their spouse.
Thankfully, she had created more than just children. She had taken the best genetics. The best skills. The best senses. She had been prepared for the experiment working too well in that regard, as they each would prove to bring skill sets that would make them highly desirable in the field of hunting and destroying. Just like many of the people Mira knew, these offspring would become some of the greatest at removing harmful and destructive creatures from the earth.
But who would take them on?

Katana
Daughter of Delci & Arrow
Designed by Pigeon | Owned by: xxx
Specializes in: Werewolves
Katana was the experimental child for Mira's brother, Levi, to have a chance at having children. Because Mira didn't know if it would work or not, Mira tried Delci's genes with someone else - if it did work, she could simply find the child another home without Levi ever knowing or needing to care about her. If it didn't work, Levi wouldn't have to get his hopes up for nothing. She knew she needed to test this out before getting Levi involved in the process.
Of course, as soon as Levi heard about what was going on - and when he found out Katana was indeed a success - he couldn't let her go. She was still Delci's, and he wanted her to be theirs. Katana grew up in a loving home from the start and was treated just as though she was Levi's, despite her very vibrant and unnatural colors. If it weren't for that little "flaw", no one would have ever known she wasn't actually his.
Except for the small fact that she also trumps Levi in fighting skills. While Levi is far more relaxed and a bit on the aloof side when it comes to fighting, Katana was a born killer. She quickly picked up on her abilities with her blade and became well known among her siblings as the most skilled and feared. No matter her opponent, Katana always seems to win - or has the intelligence to back down if she knows she cannot.
Her intelligence also makes her good at bringing justice to the right creatures, which is why she specializes in hunting Werewolves. Having some werewolf in her lineage, and living near plenty of them, she knows they can be gentle creatures. However, in the wrong hands or in the wrong environments, she also knows they can get out of control. A werewolf who was not raised right and only knows violence, she knows cannot be tamed. When she can, she tries to tame the beasts. When she cannot, and she knows they are beyond reach, she realizes they cannot be left to damage people's lives any longer.
Some believe she has an entire pack she travels with - a pack of all the beasts she has saved that forever stand by her side for pulling them back to humanity.

Tanto
Son of Levi & Delci
Designed by Aantlers | Owned by: xxx
Specializes in: Werewolves
It was probably a good thing Katana had been born - because Tanto probably wouldn't have made it on his own without his much wiser, more skilled sister. Tanto is far less serious about his work, though because the two are so bonded, he tries so very hard to keep up with his sister so he can stand by her side through everything. While his ignorance annoys her at times, Katana would do anything for her brother and wouldn't know what to do without him around. His silly antics bring light to some of their darker days, and even in the roughest of times, Katana finds herself smiling at Tanto.
Tanto has a way with the Werewolves he and Katana rehabilitate, too. If anyone can teach them how to find their humanity, it's this lovable guy. He may not be the best with his blade, but he does have a way with lifting and healing the spirits of others. It is difficult to say who has helped them most - Katana who spared their lives and offered them a second chance, or Tanto who taught them how to live a life of wonder and kindness.

Javelin
Daughter of Hal & Arrow
Designed by Rana | Owned by: xxx
Specializes in: Sirens and other sea creatures
Javelin is the reckless one. Hence, the missing leg. She is bound and determined to win every mission she goes on, even if it means losing her life. Thankfully, that hasn't happened yet, though she has had many close calls. While she used to work on land, she has found it is much easier to hunt at sea where she doesn't need to be able to run as quickly. Javelin accompanies sailors on their ships to protect them from what lies in the heart of the seas.
Javelin can be seen as arrogant, though she's really not - she's just very confident in her abilities. She blends right in with the boys, and is better than most of them, which annoys her siblings. A bit of a showoff, she is never afraid to challenge them to duels for practice. This feisty girl isn't very attached to anyone and loves traveling across the world.
In what little downtime she has, she enjoys basking in the sun, fishing, and swimming.

Pistol
Daughter of Sky & Arrow
Specializes in: Vampires
While it may not look like it, Pistol is quite dangerous with her gun. Speed, accuracy and quick thinking are all attributes of her fighting that make her great at invading vampire nests. Often, she is chosen to lead these raids because she is so skilled in dealing with all things vampire. From knowing where they like to live, to their daily habits - she took quite an interest in them at a young age.
Her bright colors may not make her out to be a creature of the night, and it's true, she isn't. She loves hunting vampires because of their high payouts and relatively quick turnarounds. Because of how quickly she can eliminate them and collect her bounty, she has the freedom to enjoy the finer things in life. When not working she enjoys spa treatments, fancy dinners, and staying in the best hotels in the most beautiful parts of the world. You could say Pistol enjoys the life of luxury.
Her personal life may reflect her girly side, but her hunting abilities are as refined as any of her other siblings. They can't quite believe her abilities, however, since she is never seen practicing. She likes to keep her work life entirely separated from her personal life and takes her training to the darkness as well.

Scimitar
Son of River & Freida
Specializes in: Treasure Hunting
Another sea dweller, Scimitar has a life of his own on the open seas. He travels by ship in search of treasures and eliminates anyone in his path. He has taken a different route in life from his siblings in that he does not hunt down beasts; he does not protect the innocent. He is out for himself with his abilities. To him, it seems it'd be a waste of his abilities to not pursue his dreams. He is a pirate at heart and wants to discover unknown shipwrecks and own the sea. Of course, so long as no one interferes with his plans, he certainly doesn't go out of his way to cause trouble.
At times he allows his sister, Javelin, to travel along with him, though she hardly approves of what he's chosen to do with his life. However, she can't help but to be impressed with the amount of knowledge Scimitar has with the seascape. He needs no maps or compasses to find his way anymore, and for that she admires him. His greed, however, she tries to ignore so long as he's willing to help her from time to time.
Scimitar can be seen as an outcast from his family in many regards, though he still loves them all and enjoys visiting them when he returns to land for short periods of time. He is an arrogant and witty captain of his ship, but is at a bit of a loss when it comes to those on land and tends to be rather quiet around the rest of his family.
The only thing he enjoys about land is his hidden reserve of treasures he keeps adding to. He can never get over the shine and beauty of old objects that were lost in the sea until he uncovered them. He probably loves his items more than anything in the world.

Sai
Son of Arrow & Levi
Specializes in: Undercover Operations
Sai is a master of disguise. Just as his coat changes colors, so do his personalities. In a single moment he can be happy and charming, in the next quiet and calculating. His personalities change so much, no one knows who he really is. Perhaps even he doesn't have the answer for that.
Because of his ability to change faces with ease, Sai carries out special orders of all types. He can blend in with any crowd. This helps him carry out missions of varying types, whether capturing corrupt higher-ups or seeking vengeance for normal citizens, he's pleased to carry out contracts. Sometimes he even works for free, because he just enjoys his work. It's a thrill to him to be given new, unique challenges on a regular basis. He loves playing the roles he is given.
Perhaps he loves these roles too much. He never forms close relationships. After all, who would be able to get close to someone who is never the same person twice? Who is he on the inside? What are his real motives? His siblings wish to believe he simply wants to make the world a better place. Logic says he may be just a slight bit crazy.

Kukri
Son of River x Arrow
Specializes in: Assassinations
Kukri is the silent type. He's silent around others, and silent in his work. He lives a life dedicated to the path of removing evil from this earth, no matter its species. Humans, vampires, werewolves... anything that makes the list, anything that soils the earth, he exterminates. And he does so gracefully, quietly and without ever being seen. In a way, the way he accomplishes his work is beautiful.
He's very intelligent and loves learning about the world. Through books, and through his own travels and talking to locals, Kukri does indeed know a lot about various countries. He speaks many languages, cooks tasty foods of many different cultures, and has a great respect for the world and its inhabitants. He loves meeting new people, especially of cultures other than his own, and hearing their stories. He loves it even more when he can leave a place safer than it was when he arrived.
