THE PACK Message Boards

The biggest factors I can see are Human form effects: if its no different than Jon Talbot then no benefit at all. transformation times: if its any time like modern movies perhaps, but lunar cycle and only at night transformation are limited, especially if they have no control as to when they will tr...

If the lone wolf is male and catches the attention of a subordinate none breeding female, then usually unless the Alpha male and female object too strongly she could easily run off with him to create a new pack. That is typically how new packs form in wolves.

seems we have two main camps of thought on this.

The Hyper Police/x-men esque camp of super-humans needing to prove themselves but might become segrigated.
&
the living weapons camp (like Project Metal Beast).

any other ideas that don't fit into these two groups?

Leave evolution debates out of it...(I am neutral but some may not be...<< >> << >> << >>) BESIDES some people exceed your expectations,,, Actually since It is related just try and disguise it I am not debating evolution. Just mentioning the fact that everytime we see humans minus their cultural in...

Red eyes, is an ancient cliche, I mean ancient literally as in first used in mythology ancient (all over the world even) and sometimes people who claim to see demons say they have red eyes. Its a deep psychological thing associated with blood lust, seeing red wanting to kill and make you bleed, pure...

RedEye brings up a good point. I don't see why werewolves would deliberately hunt humans as that would increase their public awareness and will cause unnecessary problems and physical stress/effort. Adding to it with my own input, whether or not the werewolf was were-borne or changed, since they ar...

Futurama had an episode very similar to that premise... Basically it ended with Fry being his own grandfather and the Planet Express ship blowing up a lot of military buildings. I think most sci-fi shows are obligated to do one. Honestly I am surprised Star Gate never did one, especially with how m...

It is the idea of making it more monster like by having not human or wolf sounds. But clearly it falls short of what the audience wants if so many point it out as a terrible cliche, in fact I am certain the roar thing has had its own threads before (and not just here). If it made the growls and bark...

Vuldari said he was leaving in a different thread. I think you scared him away...Unless it was a bluff Thus you should stop the arguement and get back on topic!!! That's what eventually happens whenever people paint themselves as the victim of an entire message board, but I seriously doubt Vuldari'...

Werewolves acting like spiders/insects who can easily defy gravity and walk/run up walls and on ceilings. There's one for you. Why did they come up with this concept? Wolves can't climb walls and run on ceilings and neither can humans. What makes Hollywood think a hybrid can? Oh well, I guess thats...

*nods* I can understand the mythology thing. The only point I was trying to make (back then when I first made the argument, and with Vuldari now) is that, while mythology may be influenced by real life, it's predominantly a human element, so God only knows how much truth there is to which legends. ...

For the record I do not group therians with any of these. They are a fan group as far as I am concerned nothing more. But when it comes to mythology I am a nitpicker. But don't require modern fiction to obey them (if it did we would never have had wolfman or dracula to start with) Going from guy put...

Well, he was talking about humans. Anyway, what i was trying to get across is, a werewolf would not go after a human, for the simple reason that they know not to. It doesn't have anything to with the hunting instinct. It's survival that we're dealing with. Isn't it? :? Unless the cross confusion ca...

Vuldari, you can put as many "facts" behind your argument as you want, but it doesn't change the fact that you're referring to your opinion as "fact" and accusing anyone that acknowledges any counterarguments of everything under the sun. Four pages later, you're still trying to ...

Someone already mentioned the deflating back to human thing, But I want to say it my way. It always struck me as a dumb cliche, if its dead then why does it have the energy to shift back, is it like a death spasm in the body or something? Its alot of effort to go back and forth for the body, but I g...

Well, we do swallow our saliva...but I suspect that what would happen was a dead face-hugger and a dead werewolf. Why? Two uber-dominant genetic structures fight it out until the host runs out of energy and dies. I think we are forgetting a certain species of aliens here, the predalien, the predali...

and I got beat to the messed up vision thing (which also features in alot of monsters and robots) supposed to be better but can't see a damned thing. cliche costume effects thin point cloth like ears that never move oversized dagger teeth and the mouth never closes or forms anything other than a sna...

A really weird though just hit me, Okay it has to do with my collecting cross over comics. But here is the thought, the Aliens from the Aliens movies and comics ect... these creatures vary in form based on the host they hatched out of. So what would happen if a face hugger grabed onto a werewolf? wh...

Yes adult mammals have the parental instinct to teach, although learned behavior comes in as to what exactly is tought. Different Orcas will teach different methods, and different groups of chimps will use different types of basic tools. So then when a werewolf is involved what kind of instinct woul...

Scott beat me to the (someone they know just happens to know how to make bullets out of silver). Over-used. It takes the werewolf a whole five minutes to change shape but no one makes a run for it or shoots it during that time. "oh my god what is happening to you"-stated by friends, family...

True for everything, however, Rhuen a predator knows that if there is the slightest chance it would get hurt, it will avoid the situation. I think that's what you were trying to say, however, even if this is an instinct driven werewolf, it would still remember that humans can harm it. If i can take...

Finally a voice of reason in the sea of endless arguing. What cumulusprotagonist said. I like this site, i would also like it if people (himself included) would stop arguing about something so stupid. We're here to discuss what our theories are (and he uses that term loosely,) and to bounce ideas o...

No one hates you for your Opinion. Its how you present your opinion that is getting under these people's skin. Its one thing to say, "this is how I interprit it" its another to say, "this is the truth and that's that" if you had said your piece and someone else said, "well ...

Wolves today avoid humans because humans are dangerous to them. But like any predator it will hunt what ever it can and is most abudant (at hand) for a werewolf that would be humans, easy to kill and lots of them, and unless people can make themselves out to be a threat it would continue to attack a...
