The Lesser Blooded
The beastkin — a lesser form of werewolves, normally with mixed blood from another race. These creatures couldn't morph into a werewolf form because their natural form carried animal and beast features from the start, but lacked the power and abilities of a hybrid.

Magic. Or at least, something like it.
No, it wasn't firebolts or storms. Nothing destructive. Nothing impressive.
Divination. Illusion. Healing.
Small, subtle spells. Quiet things.
Their lifespan almost doubled that of a human. Their beauty lingered until eighty, and their magic deepened with age. But they weren't made for war. Not truly. Their main tasks were as advisors, spies, seers, and aides. Sometimes lovers. Rarely soldiers.
