Nocturnal

Nocturnals are an ancient and enigmatic race that has coexisted with humanity for centuries, dwelling in secrecy and preferring the cover of darkness. While some Nocturnals are predatory, others act as guardians, but all share a common trait: they are most comfortable and active during the night. Nocturnals possess a deep aversion to sunlight, with the severity of their reaction varying among individuals. Some may lose their abilities during the day, while others become incapacitated or suffer adverse effects when exposed to direct sunlight.   Despite their vulnerability to daylight, Nocturnals are formidable beings with natural weapons and superhuman attributes that make them stronger, smarter, or both compared to humans. They navigate dark environments effortlessly, thanks to their superhuman senses, and their intimidating presence often instills fear in those around them.   However, Nocturnals must tread carefully in the human world, concealing their true nature to avoid detection and persecution. Despite their challenges, they play a significant role in the underground society of Big Apple Sewer Samurai, operating in the shadows and influencing events under the cover of night.
