my dinner surprised and running.")
Hunting Tips: Lay a good ambush.  Look into your prey's eyes as you kill it.

them when they least expect it.  That may seem cowardly, but it's fun.
During the daytime I like the chase.

Feelings Toward Vampires: Wary respect.  They're better than most
humans at times though.
Feelings Toward Normal Humans: I tolerate them...


Personal Therianthropy:  I'm not exactly sure when I first found out;
as for how, I was involved in a shamanic journey at the time.  Wolf is
my power animal.  I think this was a test.  Something attacked my
guide, it was unclear what it was.  Normally I'm jumpy, but before I
knew what was happening I was leaping at the thing; I had shifted into
full wolf form without even knowing it. I've found that on the
full-moon dates my senses are a lot sharper than normal, although for
some reason I don't think I'll ever be able to physically shift due to
the fact that I was not born were.  As long as your wereness feels
right to you, don't let others try to change your opinion of it to
suit their needs.  I first discovered I was a were about a year ago.
I have always had a great interest in wolves.  Wolf as my totem animal
showed his Teacher aspect two years ago when I was called out to Pine
Ridge to do volunteer teaching.  I had never taught before, but Wolf
helped me do it.
