I strongly doubt that a werewolf who believes him or herself to be a superior predator, not to mention superior to humans, would bother to clean up after their meals.
Even if such a habitual human-eater did, people tend to find that it's very hard to be a serial killer, in America at least, and not have people notice.

Exactly. That's why normal werewolves that only kill when necessary would bother to dispose of the body. Your typical ego-inflated rogue werewolf would just leave a big mess like the Darkwolf did.Apokryltaros wrote:I strongly doubt that a werewolf who believes him or herself to be a superior predator, not to mention superior to humans, would bother to clean up after their meals.
Though that's not to say that the rest of the pack wouldn't clean up after the rogue werewolf... After they've cleaned up the rogue werewolf himself of course.

There's always the power of suggestion. Even if werewolves are not inherantly any more violent than humans or wolves, then there's the myths, stories, and all the movies we love to hate, that describe them as monsters.
In my own storyline, werewolves are not affected by full moons and are not in any special way affected by silver, but there are people who upon getting lycanthropy feel psychologically compelled to shift on full moons, and break out in hives when exposed to silver, if they know that it is what it is. This "Hollywood neurosis" can occasionally be extremely dangerous, as those who are too taken in by it can be prone to violence. I even have an unwritten story idea, involving a poor guy who gets lycanthropy in an effort to cure baldness, but who ends up turning into a psychopath. I pictured The Howling's Robert Picardo for the role.

Taking a Gestalt approach, since it's the "in" thing...
I've read a book called Blood and Chocolate. In this book the werewolves forbid it because their goddess, the moon, gave them the blessing to change. And to eat them would degrade them and make them uncivalized and they would be punished by the moon. even killing a human (even for a purpose) would get you in trouble or killed by the pack. I'm not sure if I got it all right, its been a while since I read it.
What if I don't fill this in? What are you gonna do?

But do real wolves prey on humans at all? Not naturally they don't. What if the human is vegetarian? Hahahaha I did read a book where the were was a vegetarian. She ate meat and killed on the full moon but during the day she was pretty disgusted with herself I believe.

Oh no its not! If you eat a human, you'll be digesting human protiens! Then afterwards, you'll have complications simular to the Mad Cow disease because your own body is attacking the human proteins. Eating your own kind is not good for you.
Bleh!!!
Also....are humans meant to eat meat?

They're actually misleading about a couple of things. Like the fact that our digestive system is long enough to digest plant material. It's about 15 feet too short. Not to mention that like carnivores, we have binocular vision (good for hunting.) And things like sweat glands don't really have anything to do with being able to digest foods. And my cat, an obligate carnivore, has no problem eating cooked food.Figarou wrote:Also....are humans meant to eat meat?

Not all animals need a very long digestive system to digest plants. Cows have a four chamber stomach. Other animals re-chew the plant material. They swallow it, then regurgitate previously chewed plant material and chew it some more.
HEH...I can see a human re-chewing a hamburger he had for lunch earlier during the day.
