Werewolf

A Werewolf (also known as a lycanthrope, wolfman, wolfwoman, shape-shifter, children of the moon) is a human being that has the ability to shape-shift into a large wolf at the night and the full moon. This is caused by the effects of Lycanthropy; the disease that turns a person into a werewolf.

History of Lycanthropy (werewolf)

Lycanthropy (also known as the Werewolf's Curse) is a supernatural disease created from an unknown origin that transforms its victims into vicious, uncontrollable wolves: Werewolves. The infection is in the saliva of a Werewolf, one bite from a transformed or a transforming werewolf will turn its victims into werewolves and will be left with a lifelong scar.

Once the disease infects its victim, the person will have to wait until the next full moon when the person experiences his or her first transformation. Once a werewolf fully transforms, he or she will no longer remember who he or she is. When a werewolf turns back to human form, he or she will be left confused and will have no memory of what he or she did the previous nights.

Vampires have almost driven lycanthropes in into extinction because is the venom of a werewolf could kill a vampire within hours. During the 13th century vampires who have formed powerful covens seen werewolves as a threat to their existence and began hunting them down all across Africa, and Eurasia.only werewolves in the Indian subcontinent and south-east Asia survived. This is kinda boring. They are very dangerous but also pretty freaking ugly.

Characteristics

Infection

Each werewolf was originally human, before becoming infected with the werewolf curse when they were scratched or bitten by a transformed or transforming werewolf. Upon being infected, the person will be left with a lifelong scar. (Truth: this is not the only way to turn into a werewolf, if you are infected though you will go through a heavy fever and be very sick for about two weeks or more or less this same thing happens if you are a born werewolf :) )

Transformation

After a person is infected with the werewolf's curse he or she will transform at the next full moon. On every full moon, a werewolf will excruciatingly transform from their human to wolf form, then revert to human form by the next morning. The transformation is apparently triggered by the gravitational pull of the full moon, in an identical manner to sea tides rising. (Truth: NO some werewolfs have control over when they transform and it can be excruciating if it’s the first time and you do a full transformation, though usually it’s just easier to transform on a full moon and you are stronger and usually the first transformation is just around the hands and feet and you won’t see fur right away sadly it takes a while to be able to fully transform)

After reverting to human form the morning after the night of the full moon, a werewolf will not retain any memory of their time in wolf form, although they may be able to remember some of the emotions that they felt.(truth: sometimes u do have memory but usually u transform by youself back to human or it go automatically I think (still havent fully transformed))  

After some time they can control their transformation they can choose to shift on the full moon or not and they would have full transformation control.some werewolves can shift at will, but this requires a lot of training and emotional control. After the first transformation, the body of werewolf would be enhanced, increase in muscle mass and hair sprout, the full development of physiological character, etc. 

Born with the Werewolf's Curse

If a child is born with a werewolf parent, he or she will be infected with the werewolf's curse and thus become a werewolf. This can happen when the disease can be able to transfer or be passed onto a child born with a werewolf parent.

Diet

Werewolves are carnivorous creatures. They require flesh to survive, raw or cooked. A werewolf must eat meat, if they don't consume fresh food, they grow weak and would go out of control and they would eat humans or anything in their way. In their animal form, they prefer raw meat over cooked meat.

Lifestyle

Werewolves don't stay in one place for (at the most) 15 years other they could they caught by seen not aging and this could cause suspicion amongst humans .After the extinction in the 13th century, most werewolves live in packs governed by an Alpha. The Alpha is basically head of the family or the pack. Traveling in groups is much safer than living lone due to the threat of vampires.They like to live in countries with less media attention, so that they might remain there for a long time.

After the extinction, werewolf numbers are extremely low. But werewolves repaid the favor to vampires by wiping out half the vampire population during the Age of Exploration. By now only a very little population of werewolves remain.

Powers & Abilities

Werewolves possess a variety of superhuman physical processes. A werewolf can be known as many things, a Lycanthrope, a wolf shifter and in some cultures, it is seen as a protector. Despite the wolf side, they are believed to protect the livestock and citizens of their home.

• Full Moon: Werewolves are at their physical peak during a full moon (or 50+% of moon sometimes). Werewolves usually shift at night, though they are able to shift anytime. It is worth noting that Werewolves don't shapeshift unwillingly, they shift at will and can even decide to not shift at all. However, when the full moon has risen, they have a desire to shift into their wolf form. But it doesn't have to be on a full moon.

note From a real werewolf

ok so here are some symtoms —

- 1 - you crave meat a lot (I crave it constantly)

- 2 - you get angry very easily

- 3 - very territorial

- 4 - go crazy at the smell of blood (not a good choice to be a surgeon if u are like me )

if u are born a werewolf

so if you were born a werewolf theN your whole life you were very hyper like a young puppy and loved the moon (even howled at it sometimes) also when you were younger and still now your sides always hurt when you ran and you were a night owl and still are ( or should I say night “wolf”) when you are younger (haven’t gone thru puberty yet) then you won’t get all the symptoms since your werewolf ”gene” is still half dormant

don’t force your self to transform it’ll come By itself (like a period) but I warn you it hurts a bit but after a few transformations it won’t hurt anymore

once you have transformed for the first time you can practice doing it and Eventually you can do it on command (like the werewolfs in twighlight) anyways not all werewolfs look like the ones in that picture up there

think hemlock grove and twighlight, yea kinda like those doggies (werewolf transformations are nothing like hemlock grove that’s jus what the director thought it looked like) it looks more like in twighlight but slower if you are a newbie

more notes (and warnings) -

dont go on killing ppl okey, stick with rabbit and deer those are better and you don’t have to eat meat on,y when ur in ur wolf form you can eat norm meat like burger (they are more yummy than raw)

also if you are really craving meat you can eat fish ( it’s like a substitute for meat like tofu almost) if you are werewolf and vegetarian you will be angry all the time but You can fix that by eating meat more often

pros And cons of being a werewolf

pros - being able to transform into a wolf

cons - never staisfied with norm food only with meat or fish

the stuff about moon

dont listen to movies werewolfs can change whenevr they like just they are stronger on full moon ( if yo a human don’t get caught in a fight with a werewolf on full moon they will win and you could possibly be their next meal, depends on who they are really )

so that all for now
