Werewolves – Cryptid

Werewolves are terrifying and somewhat common cryptids that torment the west. They often are the alpha of a pack of normal wolves. They are slightly larger than a human and can run on all fours or walk upright and use their front paws almost as dexterously as a human.

They do not use any weapons or tools, but occasionally a dead one will be found to be wearing human jewelry, leading some to believe they are corrupted people or possibly that being a werewolf is the condition of a disease.

Werewolves will primarily bite when running on all fours but will slash with their claws in engaged in a standup melee fight. They possess incredible regenerative power and immense stamina. Only wounds caused by silver or quicksilver do not immediately regenerate and even the most significant wounds heal in seconds.

They are known to be afraid of large fires and Leary of even small ones. During the full moon ranchers are known to start large bonfires around their herds to protect them from the werewolves.
