Werewolves

Written by CoolG1319

In the depths of the forest, lurk the werewolves, massive creatures resembling a mix of oversized wolves and muscular men with eyes that shine like molten gold, razor-sharp, jagged teeth that effortlessly rip apart flesh and crush bone, and claws capable of slicing through thick trees as if they were mere butter. Under the moonlit sky, they prowl the woods, venturing out to seize unsuspecting livestock before retreating to their mysterious domain.
 
So that's why we put our animals in those strange metal cages?
 
Precisely. Various metals such as iron appear to discourage them from livestock snatching. Fables warn to never look them in the eyes as they hold the power to remove one's soul, leaving the body frozen in place and ripe for consumption. However, it is worth noting that this power is at its strongest under a full moon, so if you end up staring into its eyes, it is possible to break free from its entrancing gaze; that said, still do not attempt lest you want your essence trapped in the Never After.
