I personally would like to know the difference between the two, because I know that a WereWolf if a humanoid creature that tranforms into a wolfish creature, but is a WolfWere a natural werewolf or is it a wolf that is a Werehumanoid?

That, my friend is a good question.

<<font color="gold">Sagramore, when you don't have anything of particulary interest to say, there's no need to post. It is often referred to as spam, and your post is a good example of that. ;)

Back on topic, there are huge differences between the two races. Cause they are indeed two different races, and they loathe eachother so much that they regularily attack on sight.
A Werewolf is indeed a lycanthrope, or a man who changes to a humanoid wolf when it's full moon.
A Wolfwere, on the other hand, is sort of a shapeshifting wolf. It's regular form is a large wolf, hence why it is know as a Wolfwere. ;) </font>

If I remember rightly Wolfwere's are a hell of a lot harder to kill...

Pyrenk 07-28-2003 07:07 PM

They are tough to kill because of their incredible regen rate. However, your party's combined strength should do the trick.

Curses! I am without my monster manual to answer this! hehe

One thing I can never seem to remember tho, werewolves (and most werecreatures) can only be hurt with magical weapons... Is it the same for wolfweres?

Minchandre 07-28-2003 07:43 PM

I seem to recall that Wolfweres do not need special weapons to hit. They are, however, nastier, as they regenerate (especially Greater Wolfweres). I'd rather take on a werewolf any day, especially if the DM is nice and lets silver weapons do double damage...hehehe

The Lilarcor 07-28-2003 08:41 PM

yes, you would think that with all the legend that Were creatures are weak against silver, that the D&D manuals would state that in the books.

A regular wolfwere doesnt have much of a regeneration rate, though a greater wolfwere regenerates like 2 hp/sec
