In the beginning, not the direct beginning, but in the first lifetimes of creation, there was war. A war that raged on between the Lycan, and the Vampire.
In this time, the Lycan, half animal and half mortal sought to protect the world from destruction, while the Vampire, half darkness and half mortal, sought to dominate and destroy them. Why the Vampire were driven by such rage has never been explained, but one thing remains clear. They had the ability to infect others. To spread their anger and rage through their person to other beings. The ability to destroy nature and corrupt the hearts of mortals and Lycan alike.
Some say that the Lycan and Vampire were created as complete equals, matched in power and cunning, destined to be mortal enemies, as youth is the enemy of age. The war was great, and it awoke the Mother goddess who saw the destruction and bloodshed by the Lycan and Vampire and was outraged.
She cast a curse on the Lycan, cursing them to two separate forms, but what she saw fit as a punishment for the Vampire was far worse. The race was cast out of the light into the shadows and cursed to drink in the blood they had shed for all eternity. This curse has spawned many legends and myths. Tales of death and seduction. Of a beautiful being able to lure and change mortals with but a bite.
The tales are not completely false. The Vampire are a race of beauty and grace. Hunters of the night with a thirst for blood that is insatiable. Fortunately for them many of the weaknesses that legend gives them are pure fiction. This is fairly unfortunate for Lycan and humankind as well.
