Preferred Prey: Varies from life to life... That which is most available.
Hunting Tips: Don't hunt if it's not for survival of any sorts.
Preferred Method of Attack: It depends, I always prefer skill and wisdom before strength and size. I dislike the way humans hunt, and I hate guns and other weapons more modern than bow and arrow.
Favorite Non-Were Mythological Beastie: Dragons & Gargoyles... Furtail loves elves as well, but they are not exactly 'beasties'. ;)
Feelings Towards Vampires: How could I know? I haven't met anyone...
Feelings Towards "normal" humans: That depends, of course. They need to understand that they are not the only living beings on this planet. They need to be more tolerant and accepting towards people that are different from them. And with people, I also mean other animals... :)
Personal Quote: "Woof!"


Personal Lycanthropy:Personally I don't consider myself a were, I consider myself a wolf in a man's body. Since some of you think that this 'qualifies' for being were, I guess I'm a were by your definition. My soul is a wolf soul, but it's been a few lives since the last time I actually was a wolf. Wolf is what I have been most of my lives, though. I usually don't have got this problem with my true self, though. I mean, normally I take each life as it comes, and I don't think further about my true self. This life, though, has left me aching with the longing of becoming my true self again. I really don't know why, but I suspect it might have to do with the 'almost drowning' accident I had when I was a pup. I was actually dead for a few moments, and I guess that this released parts of my soul to get in touch with my consciousness, and when my consciousness well was aware of what it is to be a wolf, I guess that side of me took over. I've always had trouble with trying to act human, nowadays I just don't care. I am a wolf, take me as I am, because I won't change myself. The only way I would like to change myself, would be to change myself in a way that would bring me more towards my true self. The life of a man can never satisfy a wolf... *howl* *panting* I am unfortunately somewhat domesticated, due to that horrible thing that's called education. Therefor I act somewhat more like a dog than a wolf in this life, even though I am a wolf.
