Lycanthropic Disorder

Share definition
This is a disorder when someone believes that they are a werewolf. Even though they will not change into one, they still pretend to go threw it as if they were becoming a werewolf. They can be violent and harmful, just as if they had become a werewolf.
It would suck to be around these people on the night of a full moon.

LYCANTHROPOLOGIST

Share definition
One who studies the biology, culture and transmutation of lycanthropes,(werewolves). Most are slightly neurotic about becoming, meeting or being eaten by lycanthropes, and enlist in the study of lycanthropology to prepare for the worst case scenario. More experienced practitioners also delve into the psycho-spiritual phenomena of totemic obsession.
I met a lycanthropologist today, whilst wondering through the highlands. He looked like he could use a shave......

1. In folklore, any human that can, while being touched by the light of the full moon, can turn into an animal, or animal/human hybrid. They can be evil, like werewolves, or good, like werebears.

The original werewolf legend was that you sold your soul to Satan, and he gave you a wolf-fur belt or cape, that when worn, would turn you into a wolf. NOT a hybrid. In folklore, running into a rye field would save you from a werewolf, because rye is a holy grain eaten by monks. Killed by silver. Supposed identifying marks include unibrows, index-finger as long as the middle finger, pointed nails, and stale breath.

2. A much better monster than vampires, which are stupid overrated goth pussies. See pussy. A werewolf is stronger, faster, more resilient than a vampire, and a hell of a lot cooler.
The dude's a lycanthrope, seriously. Lookit how he always disappears every full moon.
