Werewolf

A popular source for fantasy media, Werewolves are monsters who change into even more monstrous beasts on the full moon, or the 7th of each month.

Notable Werewolves in Crop Haven include Surge and Vanessa, as well as their parents.

Species Description
Werewolves have two forms - one a human, and one a wolf.

Human
Their "human" halves are still quite wolf-like. They have fur covering various patches of their body, such as their chest and legs - often their arms, too. With a fluffy tail and ears, they can be quite cute. Make no mistake, however: they are extremely powerful, even if they are fully sentient.

Wolf
Able to stand on two legs and four for sprinting, this form has a fully furred body with a wolfish snout and build. They are no longer themselves, and are dangerous. Werewolves who mingle with humans and even other monsters must lock themselves away the entire day and night of a full moon, or risk hurting ones they care about. This form is near-invincible, defeated only by a silver bullet.

Species Lore
The Werewolf ancestors are thought to be strong human warriors blessed by the God of Athleticism. However, when the warriors killed an newborn wolf cub's parents, the Goddess of Fertility became enraged. Furious, she cursed them to turn into their own sin once a month on the full moon and kill their own loved ones. They became monsters, and their descendants since have been scorned by the Goddess.

The werewolves mostly hailed from the desert areas in geographical terms.
