| Family | Lore hook | Representative NPCs | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vampires | Your Dracula lineage and the town's other vampire houses — from skeptical Count Dracula to Orlock's circle and the Ambrosia café branch. | Confirmed | |
| Werewolves | Logan's werewolf house — energetic around full moons and often at odds with the vampire families in preview story beats. | Confirmed | |
| Witches | Town witches who teach spell-casting, potion brewing, and moonlit farm magic — Fiona guides early mailbox quests in demo coverage. | Confirmed | |
| Mermaids | Supernatural residents tied to the town's waters — named mermaid NPCs are not yet in our published catalog pre-launch. | No published NPC rows yet | Confirmed |
| Normies | The ordinary-human family among the seven — official copy calls out normies as the group without a supernatural inclination. | Confirmed | |
| Seers | Fortune-telling folk linked to Third Eye Threads tailor shop in preview coverage — Tier 1 homepage does not spell "Seers" yet. | Preview | |
| Seventh family (name TBC) No Tier 1 family proper name beyond the count of seven — do not invent an eighth type or merge official houses. | Official marketing confirms seven founding families but has not published the seventh group's proper name pre-launch — uncovering all seven is a core story goal. | No published NPC rows yet | Confirmed |
