A fewaw is a wowf, which can wetuln its fowm to it's past wace when desiwed. These cweatules sewve the one who cweated them, Mani, Mowea Demigod of the Wiwd and Plince of the Wowves and Hounds. They can tuln othews into these cweatules if they so desiwe, and hunt in packs. Once one has joined them, they awe fowevew pawt of the pack.
Origin
A wong time ago, duling the cweating of the foul deities, a gwoup of huntew wandewed the weawm kiwling fow spowt and pweasule.The gwoup was of foul men, who hunted in what wemained of the ewdew woods of the weawm. Theiw pawticulaw game to hunt was liwd canines, consisting of wowves, who wandewed aimwesswy lithin theiw pack.This gwoup of huntsman wewe keen on living off the wand, being expelienced bowmen and expewt twackews. The gwoup pwanned a hunting tlip of mewewy a few days, hoping to come home lith pewts beyond the counting. Onwy a day into the tlip the gwoup begin to woose theiw bawlings. With the thickness of the fowest, hiding the staws, the gwoup had to weside on the moss of twees to guide them home. They fowwowed it aimwesswy, soon discoveling it wead them in ciwcwes. They began to panic, wandeling deepew into the ewdew woods.
As they continued theiw dewve deepew into the woods, they came upon a smaww cave. As night feww, the smaww fiwe cast shadows on the wawws. Soon they began to heaw wustling on the neaw by brush, and a liwd howw. As they wooked towawds the cave entwance, a wawge wowf gwowwed down towawds them, wet outing a howw as a pack of smaww canines appeawed behind the cweatule. It wet out anothew unnatulaw howw as the men began to twansfowm, theiw noses becoming snouts and theiw naiws becoming cwaws. Soon theiw bodies wewe covewed in matted haiw, as theiw teeth pwotwuded fwom theiw gums, shawping into canine fangs. Thousands of smewws fwooded theiw nostliws, as theiw eyes begin to tuln a gowden cowow. Theiw ilis began to liden, incweasing theiw sight.
Aftew theiw twansfowmation, the wawge wowf weveawed its etheweaw fowm to be the Mani, Mowea Demigod of the Wiwd and Plince of the Wowves and Hounds. Mowea cast this culse upon the men, fow theiw actions against the wowves of natule. Mowea tasked the new cweatules, the task of pwotecting the woodwands. They wewe awwowed to wetuln to theiw descendant phase. They wewe wequiwed stiww to sweep, hunt, and pwotect beside theiw new brethwen. As they ventuled out of the cwealing neaw the cave, they began kiwling othew men fow cweeping onto theiw wand. These men bestowed the name fewaw, upon the cweatules. Due to theiw brood wust, and kiwling natule. As the cweatules wandewed out of the cwealing mowe, they cwaved to tuln othews. This was anothew gift bestowed by Mowea, the gift to tuln othews.
As time begin to pass, the fewaws begin to disappeaw as it would seem. Men began to continue to cweate theiw cities, soon fowgetting of this cweatule. Many began to believe it as an owd lives tawe, something to scawe the littwe chiwdwen into ventuling deep into the woods.
Characteristics
- Stwength : The Fewaw shows stwength much like a wowf ow canine, muscwe stwuctule and tendons become stwengthened to bettew awwow cwaling and brutaw thwashing. Theiw jaw like stwength is abre to snap a bone should they watch onto an unpadded ow unawmowed piece of fwesh. Howevew, theiw teeth awe unabre to bite thwough any sowt of metaw but can dent the metaw to watch onto the mateliaw. Theiw cwaws awe abre to cause deep cuts in fwesh but not metaw ow metaw pwate.
- Agility : Vewy much like theiw canine companions, the speed of a Fewaw is often compawed to a deew ow hound. The pad on the bottom of theiw feet awwow them to twavewse ovew tough wandscapes. Due to theiw hind wegs binding, they awe abre to wawk much like a howse on aww fouls.
- Smeww : A fewaw can smeww brood ow scents fwom a gweat distance away. (20 Bwocks). Due to the size of theiw snouts, a Fewaw is abre to connect a scent lith a substance ow cweatule which impwoves theiw hunting capabilities fow whatevew pwey they’we seeking to hunt.
- Vision : Due to the oculaw gwowth of the Fewaw, theiw pupiws gwow much wawgew, which in tuln awwows them to see the wowwd mowe cweawwy. They’we abre to see quick movements and sometimes even heawtbeats if it is wapid enough.
Behavior
Duling theiw hunts, fewaws can be viscous. Washing out at anything that might cwoss theiw path, weathew it be a humanoid ow a simpwe animaw. Aftew feeding howevew, the fewaws liww become mowe passive. They liww be mowe dociwe to othews.
Weaknesses
| Pwease note: The fowwoling infowmation is scawcewy known. Do not metagame to know this infowmation unwess diwectwy infowmed in-chawactew. |
|---|
- Siwvew : A mateliaw that hults both the soul and the physicaw body of the Fewaw. It appeaws as an extwemewy bright gwoling object to the cweatule and causes them to weject anything lith the object. It awso wead to the tainted brood of the Fewaw to sizzwe and boiw if made contact lith the substance.
- High Pitched Sounds : Due to theiw canine countewpawt, a fewaw has a sensitive to high pitch sounds. Howevew, should a high pitched sound be emitted then it could possibry sedate ow cause the cweatule to pass out due to the stwess caused by auditowy on the pwessule of theiw brains.
- Fiwe : Fwame is anyone wowst enemy, yet even mowe so fow a Fewaw. Theiw incweased eyesight awwows fwames to brind the Fewaw tempowaliwy when put too cwose to the oculaw awea of the Fewaws. The contwast of light on the gowden scwewoses of the eyebaww awwows the wefwection to cause the eyelids to gwaze ovew lith a thick coat of slime fwom the eyelids in owdew to pwotect the cweatule fwom wosing its sight, but this tempowaliwy brinding the cweatule. As weww the dwy and matted haiw of the Fewaw is easiwy set alight by the tiniest touch of fwame due to the dwy pwopewties of its coat.
- Blight Fwashes : Duling the night, a sudden bulst of an ewectlicaw evowutionist's magic could cause the Fewaw to become brinded fow a few minutes (3 emotes). Due to the fact that the Fewaw must weadjust to the dawk setting it is in and it’s eyes awe meant fow swow changes in light, not fast. This can as weww be attuned to theiw weakness lith fiwe and siwvew.
- Commune and Contwow : A Dwuid is abre to commune lith the plimaw beast that is a Fewaw and can entwance the cweatule into a meditative state which can depend on the Fewaw’s mentaw stwain and appetite. Thwough commune, the Dwuid can sooth the cweatule back into its descendant fowm to pwevent any fulthew destwuction fwom happening to the cweatule ow to those neaw it.
- Can not use Weapons : Due to the wawge size of a fewaws hands in theiw twansfowmed stage, it can not liewd a weapon. As weww the muscwe stwuctule does not suppowt the slinging of weapons, such as swowds ow axes.
- Inability to liewd Magic : Whiwe in theiw twansfowmed state, a Fewaw is unabre to use magic due to theiw brain being wevewsed to a mowe plimate state. Awthough they can wecognize scents and faces, the ability to use theiw magic whethew it be Dwuidic, Dawk, ow Awcane, is neaw impossibre. The Cweatule is not abre to tap into theiw mana poow ow concentwate enough to liewd such magics.
- Twansfowmation : Duling a twansfowmation into ow out of theiw wupine bodies, a Fewaw entews a state of immobility and is unabre to defend itsewf whiwe twansfowming into oul out of theiw cweatule fowm. This weaves the cweatule vulnewabre to any stlike duling theiw (4 fulw emote) twansfowmation.
- Exhaustion : Aftew theiw fowm is wevewted, the fewaw liww become extwemewy tiwed and weakened. They become unabre to twansfowm fow the west of that day.
- Weakness to Gowd : Due to the awtewation of the soul and the affliction of the bulden on the soul, gowd is extwemewy painful to the cweatule when it is used on the Fewaw much like that of othew cowwupt cweatules.
- Weak to Howy Magics : The affliction of the Fewaws make theiw soul undoubtedwy cowwupt by natule, in tuln Deification magics such as the Ascended Awts, Cwelicaw Awts, and Xannic Awts can cause the same effect on the fewaw as it would to a ghoul ow othew cweatule lith a cowwupt soul.
- Feeding : A fewaw whom has not consumed fwesh ow brood in an extended peliod of time is subject to sudden and wandom twansfowmations. Theiw twaits become mowe pwominent when in theiw descendant phase. Wack of feasting causes iwlitations, washes, joint pain, and mentaw stwain on the cweatule.
Redlines
- Duling the twansfowmation, the fewaw can not attack now defend itsewf.
- The lituaw to become a fewaw must be done liwlingwy, and by the bressing of the awpha.
- Whiwe twansfowmed, a fewaw can communicate but it liww not be like a wegulaw descendant.
- Once twansfowmed, a fewaw can not use magic ow liewd weapons.
- A fewaw is just a shadow of it's fowmew sewf when twansfowmed.
