Werewolf + Sore Throat
How does a werewolf cope with this? I mean, can you TF with a sore throat, now howling at all?

Re: Werewolf + Sore Throat
Would probably cope pretty much like a human, i guess. Although not being able to howl would suck.

Re: Werewolf + Sore Throat
Well, I think it would depend more or less on why the werewolf's throat is sore. It can be a symptom of a health concern that their lycanthropic regeneration may not be able to correct, but if it's just a result of the usual throat strain, I think their increased healing will take care of it.
Besides, it's not like a sore throat is a serious problem for normal humans. Really, sore throats and heartburn are the only two ailments I know of that you can find treatments for at the checkout at the grocery store. Whatever it is, if it can be treated with something cherry flavored, I don't think it'll ever be an issue for a werewolf.

Errrr.....oooooooookaaaaaay? [yoda]Odd question, that is.[/yoda]
I've got one. (Or 2.....3.)
Can a werewolf have a green thumb? Wait...does a werewolf have a thumb?
How about lint in the belly button?
Re: Werewolf + Sore Throat
If the sore throat is use-related - e.g. from howling too much the previous night, or from breathing in smoke - that shouldn't stop the werewolf from transforming. Might make the traditional howl to the moon a bit of a strangled squawk, though.Ookami-kun wrote:How does a werewolf cope with this? I mean, can you TF with a sore throat, now howling at all?
If the sore throat is virus-related - e.g. from a cold or from an infection - then transforming might be a bad idea. It depends on whether transforming takes a lot out of you (the writhing, howling, joint-popping type) or puts a lot into you (the regenerative type). If the former... and particularly if transformation is the sort of strain that shouldn't be attempted unless you're in top condition - I could see serious side effects. If the latter, it might even be good for you.

Re: Werewolf + Sore Throat
Looks like it boils down to the reason for the sore throat.
Not all Werewolves howl as they TF; some don't howl at all.
We're thinking Sore Throat = sickness. What if it was the result of getting whacked in the throat last time you TF'd? What if the Villagers tried hanging you?
There are a lot of reasons for a "sore throat" that have nothing to do with being sick.
