werewolf -- lunar wolf-hybrid (chargen pick, or bite-turn)

At create: choose Werewolf on the Awakened menu (or type shifter, then Werewolf). You are a Shifter wolf -- moon tilts Instinct, form is the hybrid beast. Not a Skinwalker. Not a motel shapeshifter.

Create options
  bitten (default) -- no extra cost
  born wolf        -- fiction, not a second Path (menu shows any account-point cost)
  starting tier    -- everyone starts Tier 0; optional T1/T2 at create (help chargen)

How you play (full moon sleep)
  On a full moon, sleep forces hybrid true form -- your body may hunt while you sleep until you type wake
  Tier 1 wake: memory gap (no hunt recap). Tier 2+: short recap on wake

How you play (hearts)
  1. stalk wildlife or town livestock, butcher the carcass, eat heart
  2. Leave dogs alone -- pets and street dogs are never prey
  3. First human heart you eat locks the turn -- serum + sire blood cure only works before that meal
  4. After lock, wildlife and livestock hearts refuse most wolves; Apex (tier 4) may force one at heavy Frenzy cost
  5. Hunters finish wolves with silver nitrate (inject / splash) -- proper kill, not a stun

How you play (if you started this way)
  1. instinct / form / stalk / maul     help shifter
  2. Full moon heightens drain, beast strength, and Frenzy -- type instinct
  3. scout mice / scout pack -- prey compass and pack sense (no names at distance)
  4. pack form church|fenris <name> -- found a werewolf pack (help pack); pack smell betrays infiltrators

How you play (if a wolf bit you)
  1. Wolf-form maul stamps a wolf-turn on living Humans -- [BITE] message
  2. extract blood <sire> -- tagged vial from the wolf who bit you (living or corpse)
  3. Buy lycanthropy serum at the bunker armory; drink it while the vial is on you. Serum alone does nothing.
  4. On a full moon while still infected: succumb -- irreversible Werewolf
