Feature: We Are The Same
Regardless of whether or not you choose to acknowledge your kin, you and them share a likeness that you cannot ignore. Whenever you are in the presence of another lycanthrope, or werewolf, you are capable of recognizing the signs that reveal them as such. Though this also means they can likely identify you as one of them as well.
Suggested Characteristics
The life of a lycanthrope is never an easy one. Most struggle to simply survive, let alone live any semblance of a normal life. Some succumb to the thrill of the hunt and embrace their more animalistic sides, while others feel nothing but shame and are sickened by their monstrous urges.
