Werewolves

**Werewolves** are one of the species that the Vampires tried to erase from history out of fear for creatures that can bind and top them as stronger or restrictive as a species. Werewolves are naturally high in Qi capacity compared to other supernatural species, possessing natural Qi infused combat abilities that can threaten the Vampires. Werewolves are able to stop vampires regeneration because they are able to infuse Qi into there claws so It stops regeneration of vampires even if they drink blood. Werewolves were creatures that got stronger based on what they ate. They healed better and are physically more capable than vampires. They even got stronger depending on the moon and sun.

Werewolves operate in a pack as they normally like to be with their kin and are species that are efficient in a group of there own. Werewolves are the most powerful when they are in a pack as they will be able to show there true strength when around the pack.

## History

### Birth of the Werewolves

The exact circumstances of the birth of the Werewolves were not known, however Lenny Steel hypothesized that Werewolves began trough the Beasting Process, when Humans absorbed the Beast Crystals of a wolf-life beast.

### Werewolf Civil War

During the Magical Era of Earth, there was a war between the Werewolves that wanted to dominate humanity and those that wanted to project it. The latter won the war thanks to the support of the Humans, but they progressively disappeared, to the point of being forgotten by the time of the Shadow Plague. Lenny Steel believed they had all migrated to another continent than Bronzeland long ago. The Werewolves hostile to Humans still existed but were in hiding.

## Conflict with the Vampires

The Werewolves were in a fight with vampires. As their species are superior to Vampires. They are physically stronger and heal faster that Vampires. They also don't have many weakness like Vampires such as the sun. As the Vampires of old generations determined that the Werewolves were too big of a threat for them. We still don't know if the Werewolves are still alive or have been wiped out completely.

## Types

Werewolves are divided into three different types. Each type of Werewolves have their own specialty. These three different types of Werewolves are:

* **Alpha**
* **Beta**
* **Omega**

The **Omega Werewolves** are ones that have been turned but are alone not in a pack. They are tend to not be able to cooperate in a group and like to act alone.

The **Beta Werewolves** are ones that in a pack and are below the Alpha's. They are ones that like to be in a group and are forced to follow with the rules that the alpha has put in place. Beta Werewolves are able to challenge the Alpha to a fight every month for being the leader of the pack, the alpha will have to accept the challenge as it is a rule in every pack and if the Alpha loses then the Beta becomes the new leader and the alpha of the pack.

The **Alpha Werewolves** are the leader of there pack. They are the strongest in the pack and are the ones who decide the rules of the pack. If the Alpha is around the pack then the whole group will get an increase in strength and will be able to take out there full powers and capabilities. It is said that there can only be one alpha in there entire species. If there are two alphas then they will fight against each other with their packs to see who is the true Alpha wolf.

## Diet

Unlike their natural enemy, werewolves can eat human food and is not restrict to one type of food. They can even eat human, vampire, beast and any other creatures. There is an important aspect of werewolves for them to get stronger, and that is, they need to eat the strong. Werewolves have unlimited potential, and can continue to grow and grow as long as they eat, But there is one restriction, that they can't eat sweets, which is poisoness to them. And due to there endless appetite, they can continuously eat anything without stopping.

Werewolves are supposed to be a Predator, If they wish to grow stronger, they hunt down their own targets and feast on them. A Werewolf cannot feast on others meal and act as a Scavenger.

## Werewolf Ritual

A Ritual that can be performed by an Alpha. In this said ritual, one is able to communicate with the one from above. The guess is, it is the one that originally created the werewolves and gave them there punishment. When making contact with this said person, one must make a vow. A promise between the Alpha and the greater power. Whatever this vow or promise is, not just he, but the rest of his pack must keep it and never break it. When the ritual is complete, all of those belonging to your pack, whether born into it or forced to join, will no longer have a problem. As this new vow is linked to your pack and only your pack. This is the way to break the punishment given to Werewolves and a responsibility of a Werewolf.

If the vow is broken there are one of two things can occur. One is that the pack will lose its status, losing its power as a werewolf. They will never be able to transform again no matter what they do, nor be turned by others. They will remember everything they once had, but it will all be lost, and everything taken away from them. The second one is that they will permanently be in a full moon Werewolf state, with a blood lust impossible to be quenched.
