lycanthrope

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.

Lyanna

Lyanna’s be on that crazy sexy shit, they’re sassy and don’t take no shit but can also be insanely hot while they’re telling you what to do. She also has a cute side and can at times be serious and strictly smart but don’t let that distract you from the fact that she secretly got a freaky side under all that sass and intelligence.

Have you met Lyanna yet?
Nah who’s she?
Damn, she’s this hot sassy chick who’s all smart and shit but everyone know she got a freaky side.

Lycranthropy

From Lycra and Lycanthropy:
1) The tendency to wear spandex at night when the moon is full.
2) The mythical ability to turn into a spandex clad super hero when the moon is full

I knew my lycranthropy had gotten out of hand when I found myself at midnight in the grocery store wearing spandex shirt and shorts with the bike at home.

Lycanthropologist

One who studies the biology, culture and transmutation of lycanthropes, (werewolves). Most are slightly neurotic about becoming, meeting or being eaten by the creatures, and enlist in the study of lycanthropology to prepare for the worst case scenario. Medicinal (Wolfsbein), surgical and spiritual (exorcism) treatments have been developed but none of these can guarentee recovery. Experienced lycanthropologists have even sought answers through extending their study to metaphysics and therianthropy but as of yet no epistemological or pathological explaination for the phenomena has been uncovered. Thus lycanthropology, like its mysterious subject of study, continues to thrive beautifully.

In 1951, in the French town of Pont St. Esprit., nearly 135 people had to be hospitalized and 6 died from ergot poisoning after eating bread made from fungus infected rye. The victims had horrible visions of being attacked by tigers and snakes and of turning into beasts. Victims reported a 'terror of dark’ and ‘feeling that my body was not mine’) together with burning sensations (commonly known as St. Anthony’s fire ) in the extremities & the scalp. Leading Lycanthropologist's consider this episode to offer valuable incite into the natureof lycanthropy.
