Weres: The most familiar were is of course the classic wolf man, or werewolf. The curse of the werewolf and the illness in which one believes themselves to transform into a wolf is called lycanthropy.

Lycanthropes. When a human is a natural channel for a spirit of rage, they turn into a beast but only in their own minds. More aggressive, stronger, resistant to pain and injury. They are born, not made.
