Nate’s family is full of hunters, lycan, and Garou monster hunters. Long ago they chose to get infected with lycanthropy as when they fight vampire they do not have to worry about getting infected by something they may or may not be able to control, hunger.

So over the generations, they selected the strains of lycanthropy/ Garou they wanted and over time their family achieved the goal they always wanted. One which they could control and be able to hunt monsters with an added advantage.

When it came time for Nate’s turn to start his training the process was not fun. Painful, a confusing blur in the end. Causing those who are infected to act rabid, as all they hear are the noises, smell the scents and feel their bodies change. He knew that some had to be put down in the past because of the change but he still went through with it.

Come the morning he was woken up by his mother who fed him and gave him water. Then his training truly began. First learning how to control the shift and then to fight, combining the two if need be.

From his training he left his home to start work as Monster Hunter, hunting down many beasts and monsters along the way, and often times killing them. During one of those jobs in a town he ran into a woman named Jane and the two have been wandering together and hunting monsters as well.

Though Jane does not know what is truly going on underneath his skin as of yet.
