Hunters usally stick to using older weapons to kill a werewolf, crossbows, swords, canes, and rarly use guns to kill one, unless using silver bullets. According to the different legends and lores, there were many ways, other than the bite, to become a werewolf. Wear a werewolf skin that will magically transform you. Sometimes even a belt made of werewolf fur is enough. Being cursed by a demon. Use a spell of some sort. TyphonTyphon and his mate Echidna were the progenitors of many famous monsters.
Typhon attempted to overthrow Zeus for the supremacy of the cosmos. The two fought a cataclysmic battle, which Zeus finally won with the aid of his thunderbolts. Black goo is usually a sign of sickness of the body or, possibly, the mind. Life Expectancy. The Average Werewolf lives around years, to years. The Oldest recorded Werewolf was years old. It is most frequently used by Alpha Werewolves to turn humans into Beta Werewolves through a bite or an especially deep scratch, but this process can also turn humans into other creatures, such as Kanimas or Werejaguars, among others.
They also hate to be around objects made from silver or iron. 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. To their credit, vampires are extremely agile and this would give them the edge to be able to dodge paintballs travelling at mph.
Werewolf bites cannot kill an Original Vampire, as Christopher Chamberlain mentioned to Charlotte Marshall when they were talking about Jake. Skip to content. Search for:. Home » QA. What Kind Number Is 0?
However, since the Nogitsune spirit is nearly always dominating the spirit of the host and since the Nogitsune's host often has no idea that they are possessed when they are in control of their own body , the host does not usually have the ability to actively use these powers on their own. There are exceptions to this rule, however; for example, the Kumicho of a branch of the Yakuza in Japan voluntarily allowed himself to be possessed by a Nogitsune in order to rise up the ranks of his family, suggesting that he may have made an agreement with the Nogitsune that allowed him some conscious use of its powers.
On the other hand, Stiles Stilinski , the human host of the Nogitsune summoned by Noshiko Yukimura in , was possessed without his consent or knowledge, and any use of the Nogitsune's powers that he had was under his possessor's orders.
So far, a Nogitsune has only been able to possess and share powers with humans, though it has been implied that they can also possess fellow Kitsune when in a human form, since Noshiko summoned the Nogitsune with the intention of it possessing her and imbuing her with its power so she could heal and get revenge on those who covered up the riot at Camp Oak Creek.
A Hellhound possesses the ability to endow their human vessel with an immensely powerful set of supernatural abilities. The sole Hellhound that has appeared on the series, Cerberus , possessed the body of then-human Jordan Parrish , and used his body as a tool much like the Nogitsune did with Stiles Stilinski until Parrish and Cerberus made an agreement in order to defeat the Beast of Gevaudan.
Afterward, their spirits merged, and Parrish was afforded full control over Cerberus' powers. However, even before they merged, Parrish had sporadic control over Cerberus' powers, as he accessed super strength in an emergency when he was trying to free Chris Argent from the large piece of rebar that was impaling Chris Argent , and his immunity to fire manifested when Deputy Haigh attempted to kill him to earn his Deadpool bounty by dousing him in gasoline and setting him on fire.
It was implied by Corinne , Talia Hale , and Alan Deaton that sometimes, female Werecoyotes involuntarily grant a part of their power to their daughters upon childbirth in order to make the next generation even stronger.
It is unclear what are the circumstances required for this involuntarily power transfer to occur. However, some Werecoyotes, such as Corinne, see this inheritance of power as "theft," and as a result, she and other Werecoyote mothers to which it occurred are able to steal this power back by killing their offspring on a full moon. Corinne attempted to do just that by killing her daughter , Malia Tate , a few days before the full moon, but Malia used Belasko 's talons to steal Corinne's powers instead.
Werejaguars possess a connection to Berserkers , with at least some of them, such as Kate Argent , possessing the ability to turn humans and supernatural creatures into Berserkers themselves. Unfortunately, there was no cure for lycanthropy. However, some of the worst effects could be mitigated by consuming Wolfsbane Potion , which allowed a werewolf to retain their human mind while transformed, thus freeing them from the worry of harming other humans or themself.
According to Gilderoy Lockhart , the Homorphus Charm could force a werewolf back into human shape. However, due to Lockhart's reputation as a liar, and the many falsehoods he told to inflate his popularity, his information is highly suspect — as is the very existence of a Homorphus Charm in the first place.
However, as many of Lockhart's claims were also based on the accounts of more trustworthy wizards accomplishments he would claim for himself, following the disposal of the originating witch or wizard , there is a chance that the charm did, in fact, exist. However, for him, the charm "only" forced the werewolf to temporarily revert to human form rather than permanently curing them as Lockhart claimed. Though as Lee was a fan of Lockhart's, he believed that this was due to his own inability to perfectly cast the charm.
Contrary to what the Muggle world believed, werewolves were not affected by silver, except in that it could be used in the mixture of powdered silver and dittany to prevent bite victims' death and would merely close their wounds to prevent bleeding after a severe werewolf attack. None of them, of course, could completely cure an afflicted person once they were bitten, but could merely prevent and close the physical wounds on the skin.
The monthly transformation of a werewolf was extremely painful if untreated and was usually preceded and succeeded by a few days of pallor and ill health. The werewolf could display irritation towards friends. While human, the werewolf could be as good or kind as the next person. Alternatively, they could be dangerous even while human, as in the case of Fenrir Greyback , who attempted to bite and maim as a man and kept his nails sharpened into claw-like points for the purpose.
Though werewolves usually only infected their victims through biting, they sometimes took it too far and killed their victims. Without any humans nearby to attack, or other animals to occupy it, the werewolf would attack itself out of frustration. This would leave many werewolves such as Remus Lupin with self-inflicted scars and premature ageing from the difficult transformations.
Werewolves could be easily distinguished from regular wolves by their shorter snout, more human-like eyes, the tufted tail, and their mindless hunting of humans whilst in wolf form. The real difference between a wolf and a werewolf was in behaviour. Wolves were unlikely to attack a human except under exceptional circumstances. Werewolves, however, targeted humans almost exclusively and posed very little danger to any other creature.
Dolores Umbridge , the drafter of the anti-werewolf legislation. Werewolves were generally regarded with fear and disgust by wizarding society. People seemed to think even when in human form, the werewolf could pose a danger. It was not uncommon for people known to be werewolves to be shunned by society and discriminated against within the wizarding world. It was very difficult for a werewolf to get a job in the wizarding community, especially after the passing of restrictive anti-werewolf legislation by the very prejudiced and hateful Dolores Umbridge in the s.
Umbridge drafted this legislation due to her irrational and vitriolic hatred for what she considered to be " half-breeds ". Because of the difficulty in finding work in the wizarding world, many werewolves lived in poverty.
It also forced some, like Remus Lupin to take jobs far below their abilities. After Lord Voldemort 's defeat in , the anti-werewolf legislation was most likely repealed by the new Minister, Kingsley Shacklebolt , in his effort to reform the Ministry of Magic , therefore weeding out corruption and not tolerating prejudice and discrimination. As a result of the anti-werewolf legislation, many werewolves suffered poverty. Remus Lupin managed to get by with the aid of his friend James Potter [10] and later by working as Defence Against the Dark Arts professor at Hogwarts.
Though in between he had to work at many jobs that were far below his level of abilities, resigning and moving on to another before his workmates noticed his signs of lycanthropy. Lupin did this while living in a tumbledown, semi-derelict cottage in Yorkshire.
He decided to resign from this position after his condition was exposed, by Severus Snape , as most parents would not want their children being around a werewolf, despite the safety precautions Remus and Albus Dumbledore took; Remus stated that it would have been impossible for him to even attend Hogwarts as a child if it were not for Dumbledore's kindness, as other headmasters would not want a werewolf in the school.
In a display of ignorance and arrogance, the Ministry expected werewolves would submit themselves to the department to sign various conducts and registries , which would also force the werewolves to promise to secure themselves from attacking others. No person would be prepared to walk into the Ministry to admit themselves as werewolves, thus showing the Ministry's lack of respect of werewolves' intelligence and dignity.
Lyall Lupin , in particular, regarded werewolves as "soulless, evil, deserving nothing but death", until his own son was infected as a result of his prejudicial comment. Given Kingsley Shacklebolt 's friendship with Remus Lupin and the furthering of Muggle-born and house-elf rights after , it is likely that the reforms of the Ministry under Minister for Magic Shacklebolt included less prejudicial treatment of werewolves.
Monstrous Fenrir Greyback , the most savage werewolf of modern times.
