Lycanthropy is a condition that causes a transformation between humanoid and animal, typically triggered by lunar cycles, intense emotion, or a conscious will. It is often acquired through a curse, an infectious bite, a spell, or divine ritual, although a few are born with it. While some struggle between their dual natures, others embrace the instincts and power that it grants.
The known types of lycanthropy are:
Werebears, can shapeshift into bears and large bear-like creatures.
Werebulls can shapeshift into bulls or oxen.
Werecats into panthers, tigers, and other feline-based creatures.
Werefoxes, also known as kitsunes, can shapeshift into foxes and are often associated with trickery.
Werereptiles can shapeshift into various reptilian creatures and may be referred to as weresnakes or werelizards, depending on their form.
Werewolves, can shapeshift into wolves or wolf-like creatures.
