Werefolk

"Beware, the blood of beasts runs through those veins." - Warning post
The Werefolk also known as Where-people/Where-men or Beastbloods, are the people infected with the disease of changing into an animal.

Basic Information

Anatomy

While not in beast form they look like whatever race they were before they were infected. But while transformed they can change into whatever form of beast changed them. There forms are:

• Werewolf
• Wereparrots/hawks
• Wererabbits
• Weregrasshopper
• Werefrogs
• Chimeras (only Saytrs and Centaurs turn into these)

Genetics and Reproduction

They produce in the same manner as they would before they were infected.

Growth Rate & Stages

Werefolk don't change or experience any differences until they turn 10. That is unless they were apart of a bloodline that hasn't been cured yet. Then they already look partly transformed at birth.

Ecology and Habitats

They don't need any specific habitat to live they can adapt pretty easily.

Dietary Needs and Habits

They hunt and farm normally but if they like to do it quickly they change into their beastform. They can track and kill their prey much faster this way.

Additional Information

Social Structure

The werefolk are all lead by a queen who rules over their small villages and towns.

Facial characteristics

They usually have a red tint around their irises.

Geographic Origin and Distribution

They came from somewhere in the Savage Lands but now reside around Serferine. In Serferine they can be found in:

• Serferine City
• Kross
• Arcton
• Garigill

Perception and Sensory Capabilities

They have better sight and smell than most while untransformed but it increases greatly once they change.

Civilization and Culture

History

The Werefolk came as a wave of terror in the Circle. They exterminated the children and the gray ones, and killed so many before they were corralled. The plan was to destroy them all but the dwarves had other designs for them. They took them to Seersglade, and according to the Werefolk they tortured them. But the dwarves claim to have been looking for a cure, and to their credit they found it. The Werefolk now had full control of their transformations, but that wasn't going to excuse the blood they spilled before. Many in circle despise them to this day and they're frequently discriminated against. So they decided to live away from the cities and took to farming and hunting, and this is now how they make their way in the world.

When a person is turned their transformation is somehow tied to their blood. No one knows how it ties in yet, but it does more of an effect on mixed race people. It's different animals are vying for control, and the less control that person has. This knowledge had an unintended side effect on the turned and unturned alike. People were scared to date outside their race for fear of their being potentially turned. Werefolk were also nervous about the same thing, after time this fear died down. But people who live near werefolk still practice this out of fear.

Body Tint, Colouring and Marking

Varies. The Werefolk share blood connection but come from different races. Humans, Elves, Dwarves and all who have lived in the circle have had people infected. So not only do they look different already but when they change they have various colors of animal fur as well.
