What's with all the werewolf racism, looked down on, poor widdle mutant from marvel comics stuff? Not sure what image of the werewolf we are thinking of here but it sure as hell aint the same one.

The shifting at puberty thing was supposedly a metaphor for puberty being a time when the body goes through severe changes so it would make sense as the time when something like this might become active. That and its a rip-off of Marvel comics where Mutants get their powers at puberty. I say it depe...

My understanding of this issue. What Vuldari wants: Clear terms that everyone can agree on their meanings so when they are used in discussion we know exactly what they are talking about. A lofty goal, unfortunatly as you can see that's not going to happen in this context when refering to something t...

Fan-terms based on a single source such as Trekkie or dungeon Master has easy to identify sources. However terms meant to refer to a ficitonal creature which already has numerous variations is another thing entirely (something I think many here are trying to say) Neither Therian nor Furre with in th...

The howl was okay, the make up and camera were terrible though. I recognize the mask as one I had seen in a Spencers around Halloween.

The fuzzy faced ones I also call Wolfman or Wolfmen type werewolves. In fact I think its pretty common to call them that because of the movie by the same name that made them famous. I had alwasy used. Wolfman Half-wolf Full-wolf "gorilla with a dog mask on" Monster Wolf aside from these ae...

There is also a PBS special movie with the same title about killers on a reservation. So I'm not concerned, its a native american supernatural creature, they can't copyright its name. That would be like calling a movie Vampires and demanding royalites when ever some one used the word in their own wo...

I want that MArio anime (yes, there was a MArio anime, but it only came out in Japan) :(
was it the one where Mario also had Donkey Kong on it as one of the bad guys?
If it is then it also went to germany and/or Korea.

And with further respects, i think this discussion is going in circles. Agreed. Does anyone object to letting this rest for a while ?

Gestalt form is just for this movie, and basically only feels right in that sense.

To have werewolves in the Army (the only branch I familiar with, as I was in the Army) you would need a super-dominant Senior Drill Seargent, and two slightly less dominant junior DSGTs. Then you would set up your platoon of up to 65 recruits. After say, 10 weeks (regular infantry school is 14 week...

And my plan has succeeded. The term werewolf no longer means a damned thing other than wolf+man=what ever the hell anyone wants to think it is with those traits. PS: a man shapeshifting into a wolf is a physical description as it means something becoming something else (a physical change not a menta...

You are both off base. and the Navy seals argument doesn't make any sense other than that A Navy Seal is someone in the navy. A werewolf. Anything that is a combination of man and wolf, having features of both can and is called a werewolf depending on the source. If it were a soldier called a werewo...

Although "Therantropy" is frequntly used in R.P. circles as a species ambiguous alternative to "Lycanthropy" (btw... Lycan does NOT mean "Wolf"), I am not convinced that this is where the term originated from, but is merely where it was most popularly introduced into p...

the term therianthrope was origianlly invented for fantasy roleplaying games not even twenty years ago (more like fifteen) because nitpicky geeks realized that Lycan means wolf so not all werebeasts could be called lycanthropes (which is done in the original D&D monster manual) so they chose thi...

You make it sound so serious, Terestas.

Therians and Otherkin may be circumspect, but they certainly have some pretty major get togethers any more. I don't see hit squads going after them. The best way for anything to hide is if no one believes it actaully exists. and if this belief that it doesn't exist extends to such a a great degree ...
