Superhuman speed

Refers to characters (or races) who can move at speeds beyond that humans can manage.

  • Vampires - They possess enhanced speed, and are exponentially faster than any normal human.
  • Werewolf - They are able to achieve great speeds.

Characteristics

When moving at superhuman speeds, the practitioner often appears as a faint streak and sometimes even a blur. Oddly, ghosts are able to move quickly.
