So get super strong, eat steak, and hang out with your bros, but you have to black out in the woods with your friends once a month... sounds like my 20's.
Real wolf packs are just families. The "alphas" are the parents. The whole fighting over dominance and strength based hierarchy was even disregarded by the guy who stated the stuff in the first place.
I feel like a werewolf pack would involve more found family, like friends. Maybe a werewolf would even consider human family and friends to be packmates.
I could imagine politics between werewolf and vampire groups, as well as the groups hunting them "yo we found this guy who only comes out at night who lives in the woods and is ultra jacked, said to be over a hundred years old. should we bring garlic or silver?"
I'm autistic, so I doubt anyone would even realize anything was wrong with the sensory issues and mood swings. I also work from home, so I wouldn't really have to miss work.
Werewolves are actually probably one of the only monster that can actually perfectly speak as a human.
They also do have human emotions but slightly lowered They're very good at adapting Werewolves also mate for life and are incredibly loyal and caring to those who are special to them
My great grandfather in rural Brazil always told a story of this one night he was hearing insanely loud almost demonic growling and things being thrown outside. He grabbed his hunting rifle in fear (thinking it was some sort of jaguar which were quite common in the region) and waited until the noises stopped to go outside.
He then says when he did go outside he found a completely naked man in the trash.
I always wondered if it was true but he swore by it his whole life
Edit: corrected cheetah to jaguar ("onça" in Portuguese)
