As long as I can remember, werewolves were myths, stories, tales... movies, but then I met her. She was home schooled all her life. her parents kept her in the house... I didn't know what was wrong with her until one night on the abondoned train in Edmonton (Different story of why we were there) She started shaking... at first I thought it was a seizure, epileptic maybe, even possesed I could understand, but it was different, her growls, he voice, her teeth and her eys were so odd, even her ears and hands. It didn't look like ANY "Werewolf" would look like, she looked the same yet so different, her teeth had always been abnormally long, okay.... but her eyes, the whiteness of her eyes were so bazarre, and her hands, Unshaved arms? but her ears... a little pointy, a lot of peoples were, but when we got to school the next day she made me promise not to say a word, I promised.

then one day she scratched me in class... things have been horrid since! The dreams, I even have markings in my back and I look so much different, I can smell what my grandma is cooking right as I get off the bus, and I can hear a pulse, like last night, I heard one loud and clear of my dogs. I dont know, werewolf or not, something is strange, I dont want to say werewolf cause that souns so stupid, but.... I don't know, I can take pictures of the markings and changes, maybe someone can tell me whats wrong?

No! Not Werewolf! Wereling! A person who has the ability to be a werewolf but has not quite reached it yet. If you would like to know more on this subject just ask and I will tell you everything I know ^_^

Strange, I've dealt with everything under the like except werewolves. But I've got to agree with him. She proabably still has to mature and get use to her abilities the changes everything. So..she's probably a Wereling. As for the scratch, I've heard that you can get senses that way but I can't tell you weither or not it's true I'd have to so a lot more research.

Don't be selective! Don't forget all the other weres, who arent wolves. smile
Besides that, do you still see her?

I think you should talk to her about this while she is coherent. I know if I was in your shoes, or even her shoes, the last thing I'd do would blab it out to a public forum.

Watch where you show your stories.

Nothing wrong with talking about in on a public forum, but there is something wrong with giving out the name of the person in question, which you did. I'd suggest deleting that ASAP.
PostPosted: Thu Dec 28, 2006 1:59 pm


You know I agree with taking the name away...

I would like to hear as much as possible on the subject werewolfes/werecats(if the cats exist that is) and how you can get infected, if possible at all...

As far as I know you can't 'get infected'. Weres are born. Not made.
And I agree with the name.

I'm not stating the following as fact, it is what I have come across and you can take it how ever you want to. (were ever you want to) And the terms are choppy, so its the idea behind them...

Blood Born--Typical therian thing, you have some animal spirit or energy, or whatever you consider it to be, still left with you.

Bitten born--Basically were something either rugs off from another on you by bite or scratch, maybe even if their blood gets in you somehow. Another idea is that it triggers/"awakens" something in you that was already there. (its debatable for howoften that whatever is 'asleep' would be present in people)

Energetic--This isn't really a seperate catagory. Its basically therian/blood born, but its were all the "symptoms" are not present. Basically, this is were you're normal as far as anyone can really tell (except maybe gifted people with good sight or access to knowledge).

(I think Werewolf would be Weretherian-and the animal would be wolf)

So, yeah. Good luck with that...and don't forget how mind over matter can actually be responsible for things.

Werewolves and Animus-bi are to different things. There is only one type of were and that my friend is the werewolf. Animus-bi are often mistaken for Were but in fact they are not. They are just humans with animalistic attrabutes.

I don't believe in anything being born rather than made. Nothing should ever be determined by birth.

A Wereling is born and a Werewolf is made. It is unknown when the first Werewolf was created but it is said that a human ate the flesh of a Wereling to take the Werelings strangth and abilities into himself and he became the first Werewolf. It is also said that eating the flesh of a Wereling is the only way to become a Werewolf. I am not saying these statements are true but it is what I believe.

Another thing about the Wereling is that they do not truely know that they are a Wereling until they have sexual inneractions. When a Wereling has sexual inneractions with another they reseive all of there abilities. Before a Wereling goes through said changes they are in great danger for they are hunted by both Werewolf and Vampire.

The reason why Vampires hunt the Werelings is the Wereling blood. The Wereling blood is like candy to vampires. It also increases their abilities and makes them stronger. It is very aparent why Werewolves hunt Werelings. They do it to create more of their own kind and indoing so making themselves stonger.

Alright, ignoreing that this seems slightly fanfictionish.
What you're saying is to be a Werewolf, you have to eat the flesh of a Wereling. And if a Werewolf is hunting a Wereling, then they've already eaten Wereling flesh.
Second, from what I've come across, there are barely any "Vampires" around that would fit into the what you are saying. (ones that like actualy blood).

And could you elaborate on what makes Werewolves special enough to be a totally seperate catagory from other "Werecreatures"?

Werewolves, werelings, therians, weres ... gah, you people are confusing. I just wish someone could pick some official labels and stick with them.

The wolf in werewolf is current English; the were is not. The wer- or were- in wer(e)wolf means "man"; it is related to Latin vir with the same meaning, the source of virile and virility. Both the Germanic and the Latin words derive from Indo-European *wīro-, "man."

Therefore, it is incorrect to label only werewolves as "weres", seeing as the word applies to their primary form (that of a human). It could, however, acurately be used as an umbrella term covering all those who either transform into or constantly have partially animalistic physical traits. If you wanted to discuss a specific animal condition, "were{insert animal here}" is more appropriate.

Also, if you wanted to refer to werewolves only, the term lycanthrope (or shortened lycan) would be more appropriate. The word originated in ancient Greece as lykanthropos. Lyk(os) meaning "wolf", while anthropos translates as "man". If you wanted to discuss some other animal form, find a translator online and find out what the Greek word for it is, and tack it on to "-anthrope".

Also, while I'm at it, the word therianthrope would be an umbrella term as well, as it is used today. Therion was Greek for "wild animal" or "beast".

Now, whether Thropes are the spiritual animal-people and Weres are the physical animal-people and werelings are born and other weres are made ... well, that's all beyond me. I seriously do think some council or SOMETHING should get it all straightened out and uniform so everyone's on the same page.

@ Vincent. Theres no mistaking when I say there are other 'Weres' besides wolves. These Weres do shift into some other form of animal.

-nod-

I've never heard of 'werelings'.
I've only heard of Therians and Weres.
And while the terms are different, they are the same. Some actually do shift physically, as I've had my experiences and of my own close friends, those stories I'm not able to describe because of protection and loyalty purposes. And that is their right.

To my knowledge, Weres are born or 'made' before they are born. Many carry an animal sense and additute throughout their life since they are very young.

That said, I haven't met a 'turned' anything that wasn't blowing bullshit. Because seemingly, they hadn't a brain cell in their head that told them it'd probably be a good Idea to keep quiet. They often spouted words like 'Lycan' and how vampires and lycans are in a war against each other, so not only are they quoting Underworld they have no idea that Were and Vampires are friendly to each other, and many are friends. Anyone who say otherwise has a deep misunderstanding.

I do think "lycan" COULD be an appropriate term to signify a wolf-specific Thrope form. That is, if it could be washed clean of those horrid movies. After all, as I said, it IS derived from the Greek lykos, which does mean "wolf".

As for the Big Bad Vampire vs. Werewolf War O' Doom ... as I said the other day to Aila, the ONLY reason there would be conflict between the two (aside from normal personality differences) is because they would instinctively sense the predator in each other. After all, you don't see the bear and the bobcat hanging out, do you? smile Even so, as YOU said, their own uniqueness more often brings them together, rather than driving them apart.
