Factions - realistic or unrealistic?

INteresting.  Does that make Humans a domesticated Herd animal?

Nope; in that setting it makes them a tiny and peculiar ethnic minority.

I read the first book. I had mixed emotions but thought it was definitely worth reading the second book. It had interesting potential. I forgot. It's been long enough that I need to reread the first book before starting the rest. I will have to do that soon.

I kind of lost track of them for a while, and was surprised to discover just a couple of weeks ago that there are now five out.

So uh I know I'm kind of necroing a topic and I apologize but I just started reading the first Bloodhound Files book and I am liking it ok, except the main character keeps identifying people as werewolves and then later as Vampires and vice versa... is that some kind of unreliable narrator thing or just a mistake? On the train near the beginning in Japan she identifies the detective as a Japanese Vampire and then a few pages later describes his wolf form. I thought I was confusing characters but I checked and it's definitely there.

She's unused to the world and really no good at telling vampires from werewolves, and often gets them wrong on first meeting, is how I read that.

Factions could exist, but who says they have to be all made up of one type of supernatural entity.

Wonderful point, I suppose they could group based on location or common desire/religon/belief or any other ole thing people have created factions around

[Wordmaker]

This exact point influenced my world-design for Locked Within. The two primary factions, the Council of Chains and the reborn Conclaves, are separated by conflicting ideologies first and foremost.
