The Werewolf, Suggested reading for the aspireing werewolf.
By NoahR93 (A.K.A Salazar)

Part 1 - Types
So you want to be a werewolf? Well first things first, What kind?
There are two divisions of werewolf, Alpha or Beta
-The Alpha Wolf
The Alpha werewolf is created in one of two ways, They are born with the disease or they induce lycanthropy voluntarily. This type of werewolf is typicaly stronger than the beta wolf. The hereditary form manifests itself during puberty.
-The Beta werewolf
Beta Werewolves are the humans who have been cursed by another, or contracted the disease by another type of werewolf. They have very little control over their transformations and are all affected by the moon. If a beta werewolf does not taste human blood then the curse is reversible, but very hard to do. If the beta aids in the killing of the alpha wolf that it contracted the curse from, then the curse will be broken. The other good thing in this act is that the alpha wolf cannot himself harm the beta wolf, he must get another to do this bidding.

So just choose your poison and move onto the next step

Part 2 - Behavior
Now how does a werewolf act? Well, For the most part Werewolfs are very primal in nature. Some may travel like a nomad, others choose to join a pack where they can be safe. Some werewolfs are very wrathful in nature but this is not true for all, in fact many a werewolf can be reasoned with and talked to. So your personality is your own, be creative.

Now onto the next section which is...

Part 3 - Strength and Weakness
None of us are immortal, but play your cards right you can come very close. While in human form a werewolf is at thier weakest. They retain thier abilities but in a very dimished state. The transformed werewolf is an enormous creature. Increaseing up to 3X in size. The werewolf is said to have regenerative powers (No god mode people). This causes them to age slower than the average human. The senses of the werewolf are very powerful and this becomes one the greatest tools to the werewolf. Of course the greatest weakness is the all too famous silver. In short Silver = Bad. If the head or heart of a werewolf is removed he will die.

Speaking of tools...

Part 4 - Abilites
Well whats in the old aresnal eh? Besides what I've stated above there are a couple more abilites worth discussing. The werewolf has immense strength and power, in some cases a werewolf has been known to remove a mans head in a simgle swipe (Once again no god mode). The main weapons of choice for the werewolf are the claw and fang. Due to the increased senses the werewolf can see almost perfectly in the night, another great tool for the werewolf.

Now for the most important part of all

Part 5 - The moon
Alpha or not, the moon guides the werewolfs tranformation. Full moons will be on saturdays to maximize the amount of transformation time. During these days if you are a Beta wolf you will be forced into transformation, Alpha's have a choice.

Final part.

Part 6 - Packs
If you want to join a pack you are in luck, I will be posting packs and thier leaders here when they are set up. If you want to start a pack please send a PM to NoahR93 and I will evaluate you based on your activity in the guild and your conduct.

Well thats all for now, Happy hunting my friends

Name: Styx
Age: 19
Type of Werewolf: Alpha
Abilities: she is extreamly reliant on her strength and flexability, seeing anything that isnt a part of her as a threat. knives and swords can be taken.. hands and teeth stay loyal.

Personality: that only thing that fits her perfectly is saying she is Wild. she can be watchful, quite, and mistrustful.. but she also has a very catch-me-if-you-can attitude. she will flirt, play, and in any other way tease men.. though she never goes beyond that. even when she smiles, its still dangerus to be near her. if wronged she can be aggressive, even by wolf standards.

Appearence: in her human form she uses glasses, though she doesnt need them. her hair is blood red and she has floresent pink eyes.. an odd trait she gained from her fathers pack.

Name: Alex
Age: 17
Type of Werewolf: Beta
Abilities: He haves a sword that serve`s him good but when he is in werewolf form he haves his claws and fangs that are his best chance
Personality: He is calm but he will betray any one he doesn`t fill is good
Appearance: He has wierd marking`s that some how happened people are still trying to figure it out

Name:
Kurotori

Age:
20 human years

Type of Werewolf:
Beta

Abilities:
In human form Kurotori is very helpless and prone to attack. She does carry a small katana named Sephuris, though she is not very skilled at wielding it. She relies on submission to others to stay alive.
In werewolf form, she greatly uses her speed to her advantage, though hasn't learned well how to use her strength. She find her teeth and claws fascinating, and enjoys trying to learn how to use them correctly. ((Without much success.))

Personality:
Kurotori has a young naive spirit, not very knowledgeable on how to stay alive in this world. She is very shy, and tries to cling to those stronger then her as protectors, whether they like it or not. Someone she once loved cursed her, then abandoned her to figure out her new form on her own. She is very ignorant to seeing that this is a curse, and instead views it as a gift she doesn't use to its full potential, which is a soft subject for her. She is secretly ashamed at her incompetence versus others of her kind.

Appearance:
((Self-made art coming eventually. o.o For nao, you'll just need to deal with description. =S Sowrry.))

Human Form:
Kurotori has a slim body, not very strong. She has piercing blue eyes and long black hair that flows to her waist. Her skin is a pale ivory. She always wears a fake-silver necklace of a cat with green eyes. (This necklace has a lot of meaning to her.)

Wolf Form:
Kurotori has the image of a maned wolf, though rare in a werewolf. She is much smaller than other werewolves, though still larger than pure wolves. Her blue eyes follow over to her werewolf form, a bright contrast with her copper-red fur. This does not help in the Lycan community, for she is an outcast even there.
