Werewolf


 * This article is about the "classic werewolf". For other types commonly called "werewolf", see lupine theriomorph.

A werewolf is a person able to transform into a wolf through magic. To distinguish it from other lupine theriomorphs, it is also called the "classic werewolf".

Description
Werewolves are humans who are able to use magic to transform themselves into a wolf, and back into human form. Despite using magic to accomplish the transformation, they usually cannot do any other magic, and are thus not seen as wizards.

The transformation itself changes their physical body, but their mind remains the same. As such their personality and ability to think and reason are fully intact. But they also do not naturally possess a wolf's instincts or reflexes, making it necessary for them to first adjust to and learn to properly use their transformed bodies.
