Witch Hunter

Witch Hunters are a sub-group of Supernatural hunters that exclusively hunt magic users in any form. Often religious fanatics who believe themselves commanded by God to exterminate the "Unholy Magic", they are much more well organized than common hunters, following a strict rule of conduct that is highly militaristic. Utilizing military equipment and strategies, witch hunters have proven themselves highly efficient and dangerous, contrary to their Werewolf, counterparts at the time, more similar to the Vampire and Demon hunters. They are currently very rare in the modern day, common hunters having wiped many of them out in the 1980s. In that time, they attempted to purge all 12 great magical bloodlines by Luring them into a trap, successfully destroying eight of them. Remaining, barely, were the Howlett line, surviving through John Sr. and Louis, The Malthus Line, surviving Through Rebecca and her sister, the Michaels line, survived by Logan, and The Donahue line, survived by Selena. These lines also happened to have deep Influence with the common hunter hierarchy. In retaliation, veteran hunters of the other two splinter groups tracked down and killed most of the leadership while forcing the others into retirement. In the current day, they are believed to be inactive, although rumors persist of a secret faction of surviving witch hunters rebuilding in hiding, lead by the ruthless Kingston Family.
