Biography: It was never really clear how the plague started, as far as anyone can tell one day there was no plague and the next day the wolves were battering down their doors, infecting them with their own particular breed of feral agony. Those who fled called them werewolves, to be clear they were not werewolves, though the parallels were obvious.

The primary distinguishing characteristic of the infection was the alarming acceleration of hair growth, and the fact that hair begins to grow from every part of the body. Victims have reported feeling great right up until the change. They reportedly feel energized and more healthy and athletic than they have ever felt in their life. The change is the point at which the plague reaches the brain. Whatever it does to someone the end result is the same, bloody violence against whomever they can find. They display little remnants of their former intelligence, though cannot be described as dim-witted exactly. They have a sort of brutal animal cunning, and what has been described as a pack mentality.

Very few managed to escape the wolves, and the contagion spread worldwide, though there are rumours that Madagascar is plague free. Sanctuary was an experimental city-sized airship that was being constructed at the time of the outbreak. It was commandeered by a group of survivors and launched.

It has its fair share of issues; it wasn’t one hundred percent complete when it was launched, and they had to make some makeshift repairs. But overall it is serving as a rather effective sanctuary. Regular ground trips are necessary in order to gather food, supplies and fuel.

Over the years the Sanctuary has picked up more and more passengers included a group of scientists who are working on a cure for the infection. They have thus far developed a serum that if taken regularly holds off the change, allowing those who have been infected to retain a hold on their minds. Since the invention of the serum, a couple of the more adventurous survivors have intentionally infected themselves, to get the benefits of increased strength and speed. Though these weirdoes are in the extreme minority.

Description: A massive zeppelin with a city sized cabin beneath it. It was designed to support life without any external aid but it was launched before a lot of these features were added. Luckily there are a couple of helicopters on board that allow those who can use them to make trips to the ground to pick up whatever is needed.

The people on board are tough as nails survivors. They are mostly the kind of people who made preparations of a zombie apocalypse, but found they applied just as well to a werewolf apocalypse. Of course not everyone on board is like that. Some are families that somehow managed to survive and got picked up, others are scientists rescued from their secure bunkers.

Weapons and Abilities: The survivors are armed with pretty much whatever they could get their hands on; chainsaws, pickaxes, shotguns, crossbows. They are pretty much ready for a fight. Also some of them are infected and thus have increased strength, speed and hair.
