Candor

Candor is an alternate Earth universe, in which Praedor and Riven Isles (among other places) exist. In its story, its time period is a reflection of the golden age of piracy in real history, but with the presence of the supernatural and mystical. Hounds (werewolf equivalent) curse the land by a recent disease originating from the sea.
Humans war with the Hounds, sometimes assisted by or opposed by the Gifted: men and women with unique abilities like telekinesis or healing.
