So Gutt's turns to be the lycanthrope of the story apart being the main character as well.
Active at night, hard to permanently hurt him and with the weakness of a rage that can turn to frenzy if base insticts get stimolated.
And the background of this is a curse.
But he lacks bodyhair and the scene of transformation.
Another interesting twist is that of the armour, a knightly and chivalristic presentation or aspect of the werewolf myth.
The vampire can very well be Zodd, who presents what the lycanthrope version lacks: bodyhair, tranformation to a large-sizeed beast and without plate armour but with a more barbarian or savage outfit (the things Zodd lacks as a vampire, Gutt's countercompletes them).
Skullknight is there as a spectre and mages lie around as well. Inquisition and heresy dramas also.
Caska and Rickert stand as the human victimization view due to the tragic darkness of the world.
And don't forget the deamons and the other spawn apostles as well (though I ain't sure if the influence of the later derives more from WoD or the Chaos of the Warhammer)
So the world of darkness:dark ages still lies there as a whole.
In which of those artistic presentations do you think Miura has done well through the art of his manga(and which has failed as well)?
For instance:1 negative example: (To me) the human victimization(tragedy) doesn't convince me in the story, propably because the whole manga-story presentation has gone a lot super-powered indeed obscuring the importance of humans: the level of this is a minority to the whole of the story's composition.
