Mortal
What does it mean to be human? You have no psychic gifts to define you, no paths and magical traditions to force you along other lines. You're free, to an extent, in ways no other group in the gameworld ever can be.
You don't have to hide what you are.
As a 'vanilla' mortal, you're an object of envy or scorn, but you're definitely not unimportant to the story. There are way more of you than there are of them, and it is YOU who form the backdrop of the world.
SETTINGWhat the Normals KnowThis is the World of Darkness, where the supernatural lies closer to the surface and the shadows are a bit deeper than they would be, in our own world. The average human, unGifted, may have heard the occasional rumor or campfire story, but unless the Occult is a particular course of study, they are unlikely to truly know of the Supers' existence. Think of supernaturals like gods, or fairies. People may believe in them, may set out saucers of milk and honey, but they don't expect to SEE them. That takes experience and faith (or very, very good drugs). That said... If you are from Tamarack Falls, it is highly likely that you have direct experience with the supernatural, be it something as mild as a granny who always knows when her grandchildren will be visiting by "surprise" or as dramatic as seeing a hob under bridge. The town tacitly accepts the oddities as normal, and doesn't tend to talk about them with any more interest than ordinary folks would show for discussing 'that poor girl with the buck teeth' or the local football star. Fort Brunsett, more cosmopolitan, makes plenty of tourist dollars off of those who know the area as a hot spot for paranormal activity, but by and large, citizens are less likely to have concrete experience with any of it.
