A Human is someone who is just that, an unaltered person who has no trappings of Others. Different from a Practitioner, they can lie and act freely without the bindings that being Awakened causes or being Foresworn.

Advantages & Disadvantages

Being a normal person as opposed to a practitioner affords certain advantages, as Others cannot freely act upon them to a limitation. They can lie, something that is valuable given the nature of power in the Pactverse, and don't usually build up karmic debt because it gets corrected almost immediately while harmless. Some have weaponize their advantages by becoming Blackguards and Witch Hunters.

However, normal people are more susceptible to the supernatural and their effects. An Enchanter or Enchantress can easily manipulate someone who isn't able to defend themselves and they are easily preyed upon by Others or put under their influence, so long as it doesn't interfere with the Seal of Solomon.
