Set in the modern day, in British Colombia, Canada. There are various monsters about, particularly werewolves/lyncanthropes. These beasts cannot speak in beast form, for the most part. Beasts of all kinds are hunted by monster hunters. Werewolves in this universe usually can stand on four legs or two and are more like large wolves with the option of standing bipedally.
