Topic: Werewolves! Posted: 25-Nov-2012 at 10:48 |
Native Americans have the "Shape Shifters", which they take very seriously. There are instances where they have been reported to the tribal police.

The Indians also have a type of vampire or ghoul known as a Wendigo. If you ever see one, you also become a Wendigo

One of the best western movies in recent years is about a wendigo, it's called Ravenous and well worth checking out.

I love that movie. I haven't seen it for a few years, but I will have to look it up.
Of course Vampires are still reported today.

Traditionally, silver from a church crucifix was believed to be a powerful protection from evil. This belief must have prechristian origins

Silver is a traditional anti-septic, and it's true it does have anti-septic qualities and is still used for this in modern medicine.

Possibly. But their sight is exceptional...even during periods of extended darkness...ala the arctic. If the origination is with a hunter's moon it would have benefited the hunter not the werewolf. Tradition relays their aggressive, hunting styles and tactics in approach and pack reliance. It also relays their intelligence, and abilities to camo, use cover and concealment and, or exist and operate in varied terrains and climatic conditions. Consequently, The man who becomes the wolf is not something to be trifled with. Your best bet at countering them is a Navajo or Apache Shaman's guidance. Otoh. a 12 gauge with 00 buck and backed with silver loaded slugs is a quality option. And btw.....don't anyone urinate in your pants while engaging, it's a distraction. You got time for that after the meanie is dead on the ground. Amen.
