This is the place for discussion and voting on various aspects of werewolf life, social ideas, physical appearance, etc. Also a place to vote on how a werewolf should look.

Didn't really seem like that to me. Usually when people start to get angry they start TYPING IN CAPS AND USING OTHER COLORS :D

I see it all the time.
Now back to the topic:

Does "scaring the crap out of people" count as a power? Because werewolves should have that.

anything that people arnt familiar to are considered scary to them, so no that is not a power.

They should still be able to do that, though.

ummmm...you don't need a power for that. Don't be silly. :wink:

If a werewolf popped out from behind a tree, you'll jump out of your shoes. If a regular human did that, you'll still jump out of your shoes.

The element of suprise is what got you. Not a power the werewolf inflicted on you.

Fear is something thats built in to every living being. The fear factor is higher in some animals compared to others.

All I'd need is a wall. Or a counter, for ease of cleanup.

I'll add my opinion to the pile: I think that for the purposes of a story-centered, modern-earth movie, werewolves should come with heightened, animal-like senses and the extra strength and speed you'd expect from a large predator. I also think that a certain amount of accelerated healing would be reasonable, as it's become common to the mythos over the years. I agree, though, that regenerating entire body parts, pushing bullets out of the body (especially if the movie makers goof and have them extruding whole, unspent cartridges, as sometimes is the case), or having wounds close as you watch degrades my ability to suspend belief.

to me, the whole pushing bullet out of the body is one of the most fictional thing to do with a werewolf, growing parts should be a nessesity sense they do have regenaration, and if they cant even do that, then they wont even have regenaration, they will just have a really good immune system thats better than an average person and thats it.

We've been over this: Having regeneration doesn't mean you can regrow limbs. It just means you can regrow things that are lost. You can regenerate lost tissue; you do it every time you get a cut. But I bet you can't regrow an arm or leg.

nope cause the fact that super strength aint going to do crap cause the humans are gonna have weapons, and can pick him off when hes not aware, so i want the werewolf to have really good regeneration.
oh and luuuuupin. :evil:

regeneration
The natural renewal of a structure, as of a lost tissue or part.

Origin: L. Generare = to produce, bring to life

parts as in body parts, like arms and legs. :evil:
whos got the last laugh now Mr. Lupin MUAHAHAHAHA
:) but anyway. thats why i want really good regeneration, cause strength alone is not good enough

That 'or' doesn't mean they have to be able to regenerate parts.

No, I'm saying that just because you can regenerate, doesn't mean you'll get your arm back if you put it in a wood chipper.

Dude...give it a rest. :roll:


If you write a book, or tell a story, you can make your werewolves grow body parts. The werewolves in Freeborn won't be doing that.
