Description
An werewolf is a savage predator that can appear as a humanoid, as a wolf, or in a terrifying hybrid form—a furred and well-muscled humanoid body topped by a ravening wolf’s head. It varies from lesser werewolves as it grows considerably larger once transformed into a hybrid or wolf form.
The Alpha Werewolf retains a degree of intelligence when transformed and is capable of understanding communicated language. It maintains a sense of control in being able to suppress its blood lust to a point that the Alpha Werewolf can think strategically. The Alpha Werewolf has a dominant personality that makes it able to command other wolves and werewolves despite their brutal tendencies and instincts.
