Hunters
The existence of hunters goes back to at least [[le bete du Gevaudan]][[La bête du Gévaudan]]. It's unclear if there were hunters before the first Argent took down le bete. But since that time, the Argent family, as presumably others, have dedicated themselves to protecting humanity from supernatural threats. The Argents, in particular, follow [[the Code]].
 
Hunters don't limit themselves to [[werewolves]]. The Argents have an entire [[bestiary]] of things that they have hunted and killed through the centuries.
 
Their main weapons are [[bows]] and [[crossbows]], because [[werewolves]] can't heal with the arrow is still in. A bullet, which would pass through their bodies, wouldn't have nearly as lasting an effect unless it were a [[wolfsbane+bullet|wolfsbane bullet]]. Hunters also make use of [[tasers]], because electricity can prevent a werewolf from shifting and they are as vulnerable to the shock as a human.
