Triggers. Most werewolves have a trigger that makes them transform. For example, if a werewolf is in human form and it gets too hyper, it will transform. Other triggers are: getting too angry, getting hurt, getting too much adrenaline, or to protect something or someone, and even fire.
Furthermore, the werewolf gene must be "triggered" by taking the life of a living person or supernatural being, such as another werewolf.
During the transformation, the body of the person is twisted in an unnatural manner as bones reshape and shift to form a lycanthrope-humaniod skeleton, causing the person immense pain.
"The Wolf Man" also made it clear that once you become a werewolf, the only cure is death. Attempts to wish or pray your way out of it will do you no good, and all the chains in the world can't keep you from attacking other people [source: Britannica].
So, once someone contracts Lycanthropy or reaches the point in their life where it becomes active, what symptoms would they suffer before they transform for the first time? Sharp headache, body aches and spasms, blood pressure rise due to the the blood cells changing.
It is said that humans can be turned into werewolves by having been bitten by another werewolf. Getting scratched is a questionable way of becoming a werewolf, but most don't believe in it. However, both of these only work if the werewolf in question is in wolf form.
Those who were born as werewolves or were bit very young don't reach full "wolf maturity" until they reach puberty, which is somewhere between the age of 11 and 14. When they reach that point, their body starts to change rapidly, their urges to transform start to show more and more, almost uncontrollably.
However, any bite or scratch given by a werewolf will leave lasting scars, whether or not he or she was in a wolf's form at the time of the attack.
Life Expectancy
The Average Werewolf lives around 1700 years, to 2100 years. The Oldest recorded Werewolf was 2327 years old.
They are not easily intimidated and seldom care what others think of them. Because of their "keep to myself" tendencies and their stoic attitude, they are often viewed as unfriendly and cold. In reality, werewolves are very loyal to the select few they accept into their circle.
Congenital terminal hypertrichosis is characterized by the presence of fully pigmented terminal hair that covers the entire body. This condition is usually accompanied by gingival hyperplasia. This form is most responsible for the term "werewolf syndrome" because of the thick, dark hair that appears.
Werewolf bites cannot kill an Original Vampire, as Christopher Chamberlain mentioned to Charlotte Marshall when they were talking about Jake. However, it does weaken them temporarily, as Christopher felt dizzy and had severe hallucinations after drinking a beer laced with a concentrated dose of hybrid venom.
Relax your werewolf by ever strocking its neck or kissing its ears. If that may not work go on all 4 to act part of his pack.
Werewolves, like Löwenmenschen and Werecoyotes, have glowing irises that vary in color based on their rank and status; Betas and Omegas will have gold eyes if they have never taken an innocent human life and will have blue eyes if they have taken innocent human life.
In order to become an Alpha, a Werewolf has to kill another Alpha to attain their position as leader of a pack or form a new pack by gaining the loyalty of other Werewolves. But also, Omega, Betas, and even Purebreds an become Alpha Werewolves without having to steal or take that power and status.
We all know vampires are extremely strong and fast, but werewolves are faster and stronger and they have the advantage of being pack hunters - so rarely hunt alone.
Just like real wolves, they can have a small litter (usually two or three, but no more than four), which are born human. When it comes to the actual birthing process, some find it it is best to do it in human or anthro form because of the size of the children.
Pregnancy for a female werewolf is shorter than the 9 months a human would normally have. Werewolves grow rapidly in the first few years, so the gestation can be as short as 3 months or sometimes longer depending on how many babies the female is carrying.
The earliest surviving example of man-to-wolf transformation is found in The Epic of Gilgamesh from around 2,100 BC. However, the werewolf as we now know it first appeared in ancient Greece and Rome, in ethnographic, poetic and philosophical texts.
A vampire's death by a werewolf bite is very slow and painful, which is why many who are bitten are ultimately "mercy-killed" before they reach that point. Werewolf bites cannot kill an Original Vampire, as Elijah Mikaelson mentioned to Elena Gilbert when they were talking about how to kill Klaus Mikaelson.
What are werewolves scared of? First - we all know that silver is poisonous to werewolves, and they do their best to avoid silver in any form. Silver items, bullets , arrowheads etc are a sure fire way to kill a werewolf in animalistic form , upon death they revert back to their human form.
Once a werewolf finds his mate, he marks her to let others know she is taken. This is done by him biting her neck, which leaves a mark forever. After that, they are more drawn to each other and it makes it harder to resist one another. The females tend to get emotional and the guys tend to get...you know.
Violence, bad language
Extremely bad languages used, I was shocked as I sat down watching with my 6 year old daughter, she made wolf howling face and copied the rude words “…. sucker!…” etc, highly violence but addictive, it's so inappropriate for kids under 12 to watch.
Werewolves are often depicted as immune to damage caused by ordinary weapons, being vulnerable only to silver objects, such as a silver-tipped cane, bullet or blade; this attribute was first adopted cinematically in The Wolf Man.
For a werewolf or shapeshifter to start searching for their mate, they must be sixteen years or older. Some meet their mate the day they turn sixteen and others must wait a while longer. This can cause anxiety in some as they may start to believe that their mate is dead.
