I know just about all there is to know about Lycanthropy....
So if you want to know, ask me.
Being a lycan does have its advantages of knowlege on the subject....
I also have a website dedicated to my research if anyone is interested... But you'll have to ask for the link..
I dont wish to advertise where I needn't.
Anywho... I dub this, a werewolf discussion.
I like intellegent coversations....

Lycanthropy/Therianthropy
Lycanthropy, in folklore, assumption by a human of the appearance and characteristics of an animal. Ancient belief in lycanthropy was wide spread, and it still exists in parts of the world. Certain african tribes have their "leopardman" and the like, and literatures all over the world have tales of men changing to animals. One of the most widely held of these superstitions is the belied in the werewolf (a person who either willingly or unwillingy changed into a wolf, eats human flesh or drinks human blood, then returns to its natural form.) The lycanthrope, akin to the vampire, is thought to undergo his change by withcraft or magic. In the middle ages the church condemned lycanthropy as a form of sorcery and often ruthlessly punushed the supposed offenders. The term is also applies to a form of insanity in which a person believed himself to be an animal and behaves accordingly

-reads- Very interesting. May I ask exactly what you did your research for? It seems to be very well-covered. Is it for school or something?

I did it for my own personal reference.
I study what I love.
And what I love is what I am.

I see it as unwise to flaunt the fact that you are a kin. But that is just my opinion.... sweatdrop

Kin! You an Okami-sama are the only Kin I know, and if I hadn't changed schools, I'd know a vampire, too.
Have you ever managed a physical change? Okami-sama's eyes change sometimes. It's kinda creepy to watch, but really cool at the same time.
