Shadow Flash's Werecard

From: KieranWolf@aol.com

Human Name: Adam
Were Name: Shadow Flash
Phenotype: Timber Wolf, Panther/Jaguar, Siberian Tiger, and Hyena
Shifting Ability: Mental
Birthdate: 10/12/82

Birthplace: Brocton, Ma
Home Territory: Whitman, Ma
Dream Territory: Somewhere in the north (I'm never cold)

Physical Description, Human: Around 6' tall with brown hair and blue eyes, 
	230lbs. I'm pretty chunky, but I don't eat junk food, so I'm heavier 
	than I look.
Physical Description, Were: Most of my forms are both Anthro and non-
	Anthropomorphic, and I usually go from one phenotype to another within a two
	day period.These are the anthro descriptions: Wolf: I feel pretty tall...maybe
	6'7 with amber eyes and brown fur, Panther/Jaguar: around 6'2 with yellowish
	eyes and black/spotted fur, Tiger: Orange w/black stripes, 6'4, Hyena: Short
	and stocky 5'5 typical coloring. (Note: these are not forms I physically shift
	to, mostly things I got from hints and feelings, which I consider my "True"
	forms)
Human Career: Student

Hobbies/Interests: Guitar, magick, religious studies (still defining my own
	beliefs), drawing, writing, and learning in general.
Favorite Movies: Most good (or even the bad) Sci-fi and fantasy movies.
Favorite Were-movie: I've not liked what I've seen so far, but I'll watch any
	that I get my hands on.
Favorite Literature: Sci-fi/fantasy
Favorite Were Literature: Again, anything I see, I like for the most part
Favorite Art: Sci-fi/fantasy (see a pattern here?) and Anime of course
Favorite Were-art: Anything I see..well you get it by now.
Favorite Quote: I would put something from Bill Hicks sayings here, but there
	are so many I like.  Another dead hero...
Favorite Were Saying/Quote: "Ack!! I've been blessed!!!" and "Grrrrr...give me
	that jerky...now!!!!"
Favorite Personal Quote: "All Gods are created equal" and "Always treat others
	as your equal...because what if that person you meet on the street turns out
	to be yourself?"
Favorite Song/Band(s): Metallica, Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains, Nirvana, Tool,
	Live, Silverchair, Incubus, and Creed (moment of silence for the dead bands,
	and a good luck to the promising new ones)
Favorite Season: Spring for its color, Summer for its always sunny weather,
	with the chance to swim as water is my favorite element, Fall also for its
	colors like brown and orange, and not least of all, Winter, snow is my second
	most favorite element.
Favorite Holidays: Samhain, Hallowmas, All Hallows Eve, and Halloween of course.

Preferred Prey: I like just about any food you can toss my way. 
Hunting Tips: Work to your advantages: Wolves and hyenas wear down their prey,
	Cats need to sneak close, then deliver the pounce.
Preferred Method of Attack: A suffocating bite to the neck.  I also like
	selectively taking out internal organs with a quick jab.  My most powerful
	signature move would have to be the double-thumb wet willy (you don't want to
	find out how that feels).
Favorite Non-Were Mythological Beast(s): Dragons and Centaurs
Feelings Toward Vampires: I find most of them to be very good friends, and I
	will always choose to befriend them.  We have to stick together, because the
	normal humans outnumber us badly.
Feelings Toward Normal Humans: I've found that most of them can be decent and
	understanding people, but there are always those that thrive on controversy
	and would try to exploit us.  I've recently gotten into Paganism and magick,
	and I consider most "different" humans  (who are not weres themselves) to be
	in the same boat as weres and vamps, we need to stick together.  I've never
	let myself care what others think, and that really helps me now that I know
	I'm a were.  I know I can live my own life, no matter what my parents do to me
	now.

Personal Therianthropy: 

	I've always felt different... (sound familiar? Well I'll skip that part in the
interest of time)

	The first time I considered my wereness was when I was doing web search and
found Shadow Myst's page.  After a lot of indecision and decision...I was able
to finally confirm it...I'm a were!!  I'd like to thank Utlah for his
excellent page which led me to AHWW and my previous card (this is a redo).

	Since then, I've found out a lot about my wereness, my phenotypes have taken a
while to surface (it helps to know a whole lot about animal behavior and watch
every docu you can get your hands on :D), but I know now that I'm a polywere,
that is, I have many phenotypes.

	I think the reason It took so long was the fact that I'm a very ambiguous
person (I hope I'm using that term right), that is, I don't fit into any one
category easily.  This includes most aspects of life (look at my religious
quote...I believe in all Gods). So naturally I had to think a lot about which
animals I'm most like, and the end result was that I'm a combination of many
all at once.

	So there I am (at least for now) in a Nutshell.

	Still being controlled by my parents (forgive them, they don't know any
better), and having to keep my homosexuality and wereness a secret.  Even
though sometimes living in secret like this is almost enough to make me hurt
myself, I'll always be around here, so feel free to drop me a line.  Despite
lot of things, I remain a cheerful and friendly person...so what are you
waiting for?

	I'd like to give thanks to Shadow Myst, Utlah, MoonChild, and all of my other
AHWW buddies, including all the new weres *hugs*. Without all of you, I would
never have gotten this far and kept my head.
Aaaaoooooooouuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!!
