No your a jew!! PUT HER AGAINTS THE WALL!!
Haha, that was mean.
Agreed. Was that a joke? I don't get it. :|
Probably an inside joke. Notice how Pariah's response was to just call Shadow Wulf a dork.
If you watched Pink Floyed the wall the movie then you would know what I mean. :lol:

Meh, I should have voted 'were'. That would have fit me much better.

A werecreature is a fictional creation.
A therianthrope is an individual working through what's essentially species dysphoria.

I dunno why they put physical with the therian.
Cause, therian is all mental. Or...if you wanna go that far, "Spiritual".

I have physical affect shifts. Of course I can't do a magical poof into a werecat, but strong mental and phantom shifts have caused me MINOR physical alterations. Example- I get redness and swelling on my hands and feet where pawpads should be due to increased bloodflow to those areas, and my eye color changes with shifts as well. (from drab grey/green to bright blue). So yes, therianthropy, can cause mild physical affect shifts.

I think in my case it depends on the point of view.

On the outside, I'm a human allright. I'd be stupid to try to tell you anything else.

But on the inside and in my dreams, I've been a talking fox(who has a knick for fire- and transformation magic) for years. Yip.

Suppose it is as it is usual in my case; hard to make sense of :P
Btw, If you're wondering about FoxOfWar, think about Real-Time Strategy Games and certain aspect profilic in all of them... lurking about in the shadows, kind of like me...

Heh! I for one can say that I am human. If I were to choose I'd want to be a tiger! That all, a simple 300 lb. tiger that would eat hamburg and steak all day in a reserve....Yeah, that sounds about right. That or I'd like to live back in England again. I miss England.

Well, you can't really prove either. They're both a matter of personal belief.

Opinions aside, werecreatures are NOT per definition (fictional) shapeshifters even though a lot of people have trouble getting it through they'r thick skull. For me, being a were means you took the idea and essence of a animal (wolf in this case), make it your own and perfectionize it instead of just uderstanding the animal like most therians do IMO (although nothing personal towards therians).

Eh? Never heard that before. And anyway, when you get down to actual definitions, they're pretty much the same damn thing.

You never heard it before because society rejects the truth from basically everything.

Unfortunately society does leave out the truth. Thanksgiving for example, our society never tells us how the native Americans were treated.
