1) Songs about shapeshifters
There are generally very few songs specifically about shapeshifters per se; but there are LOTS of songs that either evoke a certain mood that some find conducive to shifting, or seem to deal with the subject in some manner. Everybody's got their favorites... here's the list we've come up with so far, in no particular order, and far from final:

Warren Zevon - "Werewolves of London" (the classic. If this
isn't on the *Wolf* soundtrack, somebody screwed up)

Metallica - "Of Wolf and Man" (overplayed album, but great song)
Cure - "The Hanging Garden" (from *Pornography*, easily their best album; dark and really creepy)
CCR - "Bad Moon Rising" ('nuff said)
Belly - "Low Red Moon" (Tanya Donnelly. sigh...)
Joe Satriani - "Big Bad Moon" (vocals almost a growl. Cool.)
Golden Earring - "Clear Night Moonlight" (showing my age, I guess, but it is a cool song)
Sisters of Mercy - "This Corrosion" (on days like this/ in times like these/ I feel an animal deep

inside / heel to haunch on bended knees...)
Rush - "By-Tor and the Snow Dog" (distorted growling sounds & and an epic battle.

What more could you want?)

Grateful Dead - "Dire Wolf" (don't murder me)
Sam the Sham and the Pharoes - "Little Red Riding Hood"

-- Wolfshadow (afta@midway.uchicago.edu)

There are several songs by Glenn Danzig that deal with werewolves/lycanthropy, such as "Am I Demon" ("Am I beast or am I human/Am I just like you?").

Also, Glenn Danzig's "Black Aria"... one particular song deals with shapeshifters; the whole album is fantastic for setting a dark mood. Instrumental.

There is a Venom song called "Cry Wolf" that deals with werewolves.

Sting - "Moon over Bourbon Street" from the Dream of the Blue Turtles album. Liner notes say that it's inspired by Anne Rice's "Interview with a Vampire", but there's a wolf howl there right in the last few seconds... and it sets a great mood.

Duran Duran - "Hungry Like the Wolf"
A-Ha - "Cry Wolf"
Ozzy Osborne - "Bark at the Moon"
Nine Inch Nails - "Closer"
Genesis - "White Mountain"

The group The Cult put out a lot of stuff that captures the flavor of werewolves, if not the actual subject. However, two songs cut close:

1. She Sells Sanctuary, Howling Mix--one of oodles of remixes of
this well worked song, it is almost eight minutes long. It begins with electronic howls and has two of those howls inserted into the song at varying points. No other wolf connections directly, but still a neat song, and the howls are great. The lyrics are hard to make out, and just as hard to understand even when you do read them printed out. This song is not on any album, but is available in England on a single off She Sells Sanctuary, or on a CD entitled "The Love Mixes." In the US, it is only available as an import, so be ready to special order and shell out.

2. Brother Wolf, Sister Moon--of the _Love_ album, this song is a must
hear for any lycanthrope out there.

--Jon

I know of a few werewolf songs not listed, but the only one I can think of the top of my head is called "Full Moon Fire" by Walter Egan (of "Magnet and Steel" fame). Mtv used to show it around '82 or so. Pretty typical crappy video, but has the singer watching "The Wolf Man" in a movie theatre and turning into a Lon Chaney Jr. type o' wolfman. Also, although the song has nothing to do with werewolves, Real Life's "Send me an angel" featured a wolfman riding around in the woods on a horse (note: this is the original, not "Send Me an Angel '88" or whatever it was). Oh, here's another one. "I'm a Werewolf Baby" by the Canadian band the Tragically Hip. also pretty obscure and only noteworthy due to the title.
-- Ryan Bassler

Please add the Seraphim Gothique to the were mvsic list in the FAQ. After all, the singer is qvite therianthropic.
"Jane Mary cry one tear" and "Mother/father" (and others) by Swans. Even though everyone knows Michael Gira is an ancient vampire, he's written a few songs about werewolves. Also, Jarboe's howl on "Mother/father" is rather nice. "Let it come down" also mentions shapeshifters in one verse.
"Rats" by Syd Barrett. A bit of creative interpretation, not hard to do since the man was way off his rocker, and this is all about werewolves. Btw "Wolfpack", like at least half of Syd's songs, is about vampires.
"Leaves of summer" by Cranes. I can't understand a word of it, bvt it's the best song I've ever heard, and therefore has to be about werewolves.
"Is there" (and most everything else) by Sunshine Blind. There's no need to explain this to anyone who has heard it, and if ya haven't, ya shovld.
"KillyKillKilly (a fire sermon)" by Current 93. This is all about militant misanthropic weres. The rant in it has caused me to shift before. Other C93 pieces may also be on lycanthropic themes ("To feed the moon", perhaps?) bvt it's very hard to tell.
"Doppelganger" by Curve. It doesn't make too much linear sense, but with all these shapeshifting - related lines, it's more than a bit difficult to ignore.
"Tarantula" by Colourbox (also covered to good effect by This Mortal Coil.) Take the word 'tarantula' out of the chorus (maybe it was planted there for deception...) and the song is applicable to all shapeshifters.
"Brute" by KMFDM. I won't vouch for this one, but a friend of mine who's listened to it many more times than me maintains it's about lycanthropy and the accelerated healing powers of weres.
- Darkening (pmk2838@rigel.tamu.edu)

* Como un lobo (Like a wolf), Miguel Bose. Romantic (Yuk!) but good for you were girlfriend: A Werewolf fall in love and describe him girlfriend like only a wolf know.

* Un hombre lobo en Paris ( A werewolf in Paris ), La Union. This song is based in the novel "The wolf-man" and talks about a imaginary trip of Denise (a wolf that can convert in human) to Paris.

Just a few musical entries you might add to your FAQ:

1. "Hollywood Millionaire," by THE WEREWOLVES (RCA 11283)--a late
'70s/early '80s track off the group's rather unsuccessful album "Ship of Fools."

2. "Strange," by THE WOLF MAN (Okeh 7269)--1950s blues.
3. "Werewolf," by THE FIVE-MAN ELECTRICAL BAND (Polydor 14221)--Spring

1974 rock song which registered nationally at #64.

4. "Werewolf," by THE FOURTH WAY (?)--early 1970s "progressive" album,

with all tracks being instrumental performances.

5. "Werewolf," by THE FRANTICS (Dolton 16)--Winter 1960 instrumental

from the Pacific Northwest. Charted nationally at #83.

6. "Watusi Beat," by THE WOLFMEN (Bobbette 380)--1987 psychedelic rock

in the '60s tradition.

"Hovr of the Wolf" by Christian Death. This is by the Rozz Williams version of C. Death, so the lyrics make no sense, bvt the word "wolf" occvrs qvite often and there's lots of wolves howling and growling.
"Bannoy" by the Pain Teens. A highly distvrbing story of an abvsed little boy who thinks he's a dog... a were horror story that will scare even weres.
- Darkening

"Teenage Werewolf," by THE CRAMPS; occasionally seen under the name "(I Was a) Teenage Werewolf." Rereleased on Elvira's Hallowe'en compilation. I've never heard it in its entirety- sorry. Best regards. . . .

Adam Douglas, The Beast Within (1992, London)

The Beast Within - Animals in the middle ages, Joyce E. Salisbury. Routledge, 1994, ISBN: 0-415-90769-1
Cost me about 12 pounds sterling [make that $20].
It's basically an analysis of the human perception of animal forms since about the 10th century, from religious, sexual, social and economic standpoints. The bit at the end 'humans as animals' and "what is a human", are IMHO really rather good; certainly changed *my* way of looking at myself in the traditional sense as a human, to the way I feel now, which is much more animal-centred.

Ed Warren - Werewolf: a true story of demonic possession Apparently about a man who was "possessed" by a wolf spirit, which is exorcised by a Catholic priest. On the back cover, they describe seeing him change, yet with the included photos, there is not one picture of said change. Methinks they were just trying to sell books with a little hype.

Animal Spirits, Nicholas J. Saunders, Macmillan/Duncan Baird Publishers, 1995. ISBN: 0-333-63846-8
Price: 9.95 pounds sterling.
A strange book; at first it starts with a discussion of "the shared world" the way animals have been perceived by humans, discusses soulflight, animals in heraldry, hunter and hunted, food, animal-related beliefs, shamanism etc. Then the second part has specific sections on animals [bat, jaguar, wolf, dog, shark, fish, bear etc]. The third part is a gazetteer of animal beliefs from around the world.
But this book's 2-page definition of Werewolves is in the section "Imaginary Beasts". Huh! So *I* am a figment of somebody's imagination, am i?? Anyway, the picture to go with the Werewolf ('Cannibal, or Werewolf' by Cranach the Elder) is worth it, just for all those severed limbs, heads etc!
A useful introduction.... and a good list of references at the back too!

Of Wolf and Man or Of Wolves and Man (I forget which) Author:Barry Lopez
It is technically only about how people think of wolves and have reacted to wolves throughout history, with only a few chapters on werewolves(which are fairly dry repititions of legends from the dark ages) but the multi-faceted, mysterious view of the wolf it gives is FANTASTIC, especially the stuff about how native americans see the wolf, and the way the wolf is presented as an intelligent being that we can never really classify or understand, but that evokes deep feelings in the human soul.

Dance of the Dolphin
Author: Candace Slater
This book is a collection of recently-gathered and supposedly recently happening stories of weredolphins along the amazon river. Apparently some people there still believe that they have witnessed weredolphin transformations, recently, not in the 17th century or anything, and a lot of them. Unfortunately the author goes deep into psychology trying to explain why so many people have these delusions, and treats the subject as if all these were delusions. It is the only book I know of that has this many supposedly-true recent were stories.

The White Goddess by Robert Graves (Faber & Faber) Subtitled A historical grammar of poetic myth. This is one of my favourite books. It's more a research into pre-christian religion than anthing else. But a riveting read.

The Golden Bough by Sir James Frazer (Wordsworth Reference) and MacMillan & Co.) Subtitled A Study in Magic and Religion. This book was published first in 1890. A lot of Robert Graves' source material comes from this book.

The Woman's Encyclopedia of Myth and Secrets by Barbara Walker ( Harper & Row) This is a feminist approach of most myths legends, saints and sinners. There is an interesting couple of pages under the heading Werewolves.

I found an interesting collection of folk tales in the Children Section of my local library. Published by the Oxford University Press and retold by different authors, the come under the general heading of Myths and Legends in Paperback. About sixteen titles. Myths and legends from Africa, Amenia. China. England, France. Gemany, Hungary, India, Japan, Persia,Russia, Scandinavia, Scotland, Turkey, West-India etc. another Oxford Paperback, The Tain translated by Thomas Kinsella Treats the story of Cuchulain. The Ulster Hero. (For the American among you. Ulster is Northern Ireland) Cuchulain means the Hound of Culain. Culain was a smith who had a dangerous dog which had to be kept down with three iron chains held by three strong men each. The boy Setanta killed the dog in a fight. The smith was heart broken and Setanta made up by becoming a watch dog until the next bag of pups was raised. That's how he got his name Cuchulain. The story is pre-Christian and more for adults than for children. ;)

The Mabinogian, translated by Gwyn Jones and Thomas Jones. (Everyman's Library)Those are very old stories and legends from Wales. A whole population is transformed into mice. It's a classic.

There are many Irish Fairy tales on the market. I haven't found werewolves in them but men and woman who are animals by night and people by day or vise versa. Seals, dogs, cats etc. For some it was because of a curse, some because they have special powers and the rest just as a matter of fact without any explanation.

Deerdancer, The Shape Shifter Archetype in Story and in Trance, by Michele Jamal -- she apparently has a book called Shape Shifters, too. This one goes into depth in many archeypes -- bear shifters, wolf shifters, buffalo, seal, deer, and even tree and deity shifters.

Fiction

Naked came the Sasquatch by John Boston, published by TSR but amazingly good for a first novel. VERY humorous, although alas Mr Boston sometimes repeats characterization to the word, and there is a gap in the storyline. Still worth the reading. And yes, despite the title, there are werewolves in it.

BTW, I thought of a book we should add to the FAQ. Really it should have been on my werecard in the category of Fav Were Lit -Steppenwolf, a novel by Herman Hesse. It's fiction, but man does he have the anguish of a dual soul thing down. Vlad seconds this motion too...actually I mentioned the book to her, and then she asked me if it was in the FAQ, and we agreed that if it wasn't, it oughta be.

Moon of Three Rings
Year of the Unicorn
The Jargoon Pard
-all by Andre Norton
In the first, a space trader gets transformed into the body of a wolflike creature called a barsk at the hands of a woman of a Gypsylike people. The second features a were-snow leopard, a half-breed of a shape- shifting people who falls in love with a witch, and the third is about a were-leopard who turns out to be the witch's and snow leopard's son. Everything works out in the end -- Andre Norton is addicted to happy endings.

Darker Than You Think
-by Jack Williamson
An old but classic science-fiction novel in which shapeshifters are the last remnants of an ancient race that once ruled humans.

Jennifer Roberson -Chronicles of the Cheysuli (a series about a people who are bound to one animal, or more, into which they can transform, and with they are in close psychic contact. The first was *Shapechangers*, and I think there were a total of 8.)

Robert Jordan - Wheel of Time Series (I think he's up to 4 or 5 books in the series now. One of the main characters, Perrin, is a lycanthrope of some sort. He can communicate with wolves, sees through their eyes, and is in constant danger of turning into one permanently...)

Stephen King - Silver Bullet (as you say, for completeness only...)

J.R.R. Tolkien - Lord of the Rings series (Beornings are werebears)

Tanya Huff - Blood Trail (second in a series of fantasy/murder mysteries, this one involves something that's been killing all of Canada's werewolves...)

The Ultimate Werewolf (I think Dell published this excellent collection of modern short fiction about werewolves.)

Whitley Strieber - The Wolfen (they made a movie out of this too. The main creatures aren't quite were, but they're not quite wolves, either, and there's some cool stuff about Native Americans performing shapechanging rituals) [Here is a REVIEW.]

Will Shetterly - Elsewhere (part of the Borderlands shared world series, in a place where Faery and the modern world meet. This one's about a boy who ends up getting cursed into becoming a Weredog.)

Drums Around the Fire (from White Wolf; a book of legends & tales told to the Garou of the Werewolf game around the sacred fire by a number of authors)

BTW, Nancy A. Collins' Wild Blood does have several hot scenes, and some sexual stuff also appears in S.P.Somtov's Moondance. I wondered anyhow why they didn't show up in KatmanDu's info collection (the one with the large number). [ed. note: Wonder no more! *grin*]

Nyx Smith - Striper Assassin One of the main characters, Striper, is a weretiger, and a hired assassin for a Mage named Adama. Point of interest: at one time, she goes to a club run by Werewolves. To prove she's Were, she cuts herself, then heals it with her saliva. Very good portrayal of Weres, IMO. Esp. the Wolves :), even if they are only featured once.

R.L. Stine - The werewolf of Fever Swamp. (adolescent)

Eric Wilson -The St. Andrews werewolf: a Liz Austen mystery (adolescent)

Peter Haining - Werewolf: horror stories of the man-beast (a collection)

John Gardner - The werewolf trace

Werewolf! edited by Bill Pronzini

Seon Manley - Ladies of horror; two centuries of supernatural stories by the gentle sex (adolescent)

Anthony Boucher - The compleat werewolf, and other stories of fantasy and sf

Clifford Simak - The werewolf principle (adult/adolescent)

The Wild by Whitley Strieber. Essentially about a man whose desire to escape the Kafkaesque nature of his life is the catalyst for his transformation into a sentient wolf. Also, one of the best endings of a werewolf novel I've read.

Saint Peter's Wolf by Michael Cadnum. A psychiatrist whose life is falling apart discovers hope in the form a mysterious new lover and a strange pair of silver fangs. Extremely good book that questions every assumption people have about lycanthropy. [NB I wrote a paper on this book and it snagged me an "A" :)]

Wilderness by Dennis Danvers. The story centers around a young woman learning to control her life and her lycanthropy for the first time when she falls in love with her new neighbor. This books actually more of a love story than a horror novel.

Animals by John Skipp and Craig Spector. The crown princes of splatterpunk pull out all the stops in this surpisingly good novel with one overriding theme: "Lycanthropy is no excuse for being an asshole." The story and the characters have a refreshingly blusey feel to them, aided and abetted by the Pennsylvania rust-belt setting and the blues music that permiates everything.

Lycanthia by Tanith Lee. Very very hard to find but an excelent book. A young lord retuns to his family estate and discovers that the "horrible monsters" living in his woods are neither, but graceful and very sensual werewolves. Quietly erotic book with a sad ending.

Heart Beast by Tanith Lee. Her "raving beast" book, here a young man is cursed to become a werewolf after gaining posession of a diamond with a flaw shaped like a running wolf. The werewolf here acts as a symbol of male sexuality, which simultaneously awakens and oppresses the main female charcater's own sexual nature until it's destruction.

The Wilding, by Melanie Tem. (1992; ISBN 0-440-21285-5; Abyss line of Dell Publishing). Follows a family of matrilineal werewolves outside Denver. Focus is on coming-of-age ritual where youngest member learns what she is and what it means. Really cool!

Peter David. Howling Mad. ISBN 0-441-34663-4. This book has a thoroughly marvelous premise: a wolf gets bit by a werewolf and turns into a man at every full moon and is completely pi**ed off about it! It's a *lot* of fun to read.

Thomas Tessier. The Nightwalker. ISBN 0-330-26225-4. This is one of my favourite novels about a very sympathetic character who happens to be a werewolf. Highly recommended.

Angela Carter. The Bloody Chamber. ISBN 0-14-012837-9. This collection of short stories is notable for including the very Jungian tale, "The Company of Wolves", which the movie of the same name was based on, as well as another short story, "The Werewolf".

Leslie Whitten. Moon of the Wolf. ISBN 0-380-00285-X. Whitten wrote good old fashioned, straight-ahead horror stuff. This is a fairly classic and somewhat predictable Hollywood-style werewolf tale, but it's entertaining.

Eileen Datlow & Terri Windling (eds.) Snow White, Blood Red. ISBN 0-380-71875-8. This is one of those books that's becoming popular nowadays where a bunch of writers get together and do up modernized, adult versions of classic fairytales. This volume includes a pretty good story by Wendy Wheeler called "Little Red".

The Lays of Marie de France. Penguin Classics edition. ISBN 0-14-44476-9. This is a collection of late 12th century French poetry which includes the classic tale of lycanthropy, "Bisclavret".

Serling, Rod, ed. Rod Serling's Triple W: Witches, Warlocks, and Werewolves New York: Bantam Books, 1963.

Prince of Wolves by Susan Krinard to the fiction section of the FAQ. hmmm, guess i should write a short critique, eh... hmmm Prince of Wolves is a standard "Romance" novel. If you aren't in to the feisty heroine, broody hero, "heat of their passion was like a thousand suns burning" sorta soft-porn prose then stay clear. On the other paw, it's a well written example of the genre and the brooding hero is quite a fine example of a "good" werewolf. I recommend the book but good luck finding it... romance novels have a short shelf life. (Her second book is also a romance, this one with some untraditional vampires. _Prince of Dreams_. Not as good and void of weres but okay for a romance...)

The Beast Within - Erotic Tales of Werewolves I didn't think they were all that erotic actually but the last of the four stories was pretty good.

I recently read a Were story that wasn't listed on the FAQ. Its called 'The Wild One' by Marion Zimmer Bradley in a collection of shortstories called "The best of Marion Zimmer Bradley, edited by Martin Greenberg...pub. 1985". -- ShadowFox

"The Orphan" by Robert Stallman, New York, Pocket Books, 1980
"The Captive" by Robert Stallman (surprise!), 1981
"The Offspring"

The Jaguar Princess and was written by one Claire Bell. It's "a Tor Book/published by Tom Doherty Associates, Inc." and was copywrighted 1993. The ISBN number is 0-812-51516-1. The Library of Congress Card Catalogue number is 93-25920.

Thor, by Wayne Smith. (Ballentine Books, 1992) Primarily aimed at mass adolescent market, but still interesting to older folk. Werewolf character is, alas, straight out of ravening Lon Chaneyesque I-just-can't-help-myself-gotta rend serial killer mold, but what makes book interesting is that it's told from perspective of family dog. Nice stab at canine psychologizing, dog/human/were interaction. Definitely worth a read, if only for the immortal line, 'I'm the moon's indentured servant'. Nice, eh?

I believe there's a Tanith Lee werewolf story (can't remember title off-hand, alas) in Don't Bet on the Prince, edited by Jack Zipes. Feminist Fairy Tales. The story might be reprinted elsewhere, perhaps in another were-story anthology. Nice little twist (with the accent on the 'twist') to Red Riding Hood. And of course, being Tanith Lee, gorgeously tactile writing.

It's mentioned in movie list, but I'm still a bit surprized that Werewolf of Paris by Guy Endore seemed to be missing from book list. Very well-written, tho' again the unfortunate were in question is of the reluctant Jack-the- Ripper type. Lots and lots of werewolf lore distributed in rather scattershot fashion throughout--alomst as tho' the guy (Guy) is telling us, 'look, I did my homework!' Still, a fab read for the gothic fan particularly. Kind of the 'Dracula' of werewolf novels.

The Crossing, Cormac McCarthy (Vintage, 1994). Not technically a werewolf story, but might be interesting to weres. First part of the book (set in New Mexico in the 1930's) deals with a boy who is responsible for trapping wolf that is killing cattle on family ranch. He ends up trying to return her to her original range in Mexico. Along the way he bonds with her in a very visceral fashion. Funny, heartbreaking, ravishingly lush prose/poetry a la Faulkner-almost *too* much sometimes, but who doesn't like to get a bit intoxicated on words? I know I do ('so much so, that truth to tell, I'm rarely sober'--thank you, Lord Peter Wimsey). IMHO, McCarthy should have ended the book after the first part with the wolf, but the rest of it makes for interesting reading as well.

Favorite Folk Tales from Around the World, edited by Jane Yolen (Pantheon, 1986) has an entire section on Shapeshifter stories. *Wonderful* for telling, which is a special passion of mine.

And of course, who could forget the Wolfriders in Elfquest? (WARP Graphics) Classic example of the spiritual-bond
--ejackson@nwu

And, of course, Cheri Scotch's werewolf trilogy...

Either/Neither/Unknown

The Book Of Werewolves by Sabine Baring-Gould. 266 pages, paperback, published by:- Senate Books, Princess House, 50 Eastcastle Street, London, England ISBN 185958-072-6

Prince of Darkness Gerald Verner, Rider and Co., 1946

Werewolves Elliot O'Donnell, Methuen, 1912

While I don't mean to seem a pest, I remembered in addition to those records I mentioned a book entitled THE WEREWOLF PRINCIPLE, by Clifford Simak. The book, as I recall, was dated 1967 and only last year was put back into print. I did not notice, though might have missed, a listing of the Satyricon by Petronius (d.AD 65) which has a great Werewolf story.

"MetalBeast" (??)

I do know that there was a British TV series featuring a University professor and an American girl (who was bitten by a werewolf). It was ok; didn't really get to watch it too much. The point was to prevent her from shifting, kinda like Nick Knight on Forever Knight. I believe the show was called Werewolf in London which is where it took place. The closest I ever saw to a shift was turning her pupils red. Big deal(sarcastically). But it was a kind of X-Files type show that dealt with the paranormal. I'll see if I can find out any more on it, and will forward anythin g that I discover.
--Windrunner

This is the show She-Wolf of London, which is playing on the Sci-Fi Channel right now. It does have the occasional so-so transformation scene, just not in every episode. There's some info about it on the Web... check: Here.
-WizardWolf

....and as a special treat, Ysengrin sends us this info on the TV show Werewolf:
Hmmm... somehow the message from ddrake never appeared on the newsreaders here ... USA still runs the 2 hour pilot from time to time (last time was about four months ago), usually on Saturday afternoons. It was part of the Fox network's premier lineup, and was apparently troubled by the censors from day one. Two episodes were delayed for almost two months due to their violent content, and thus were shown out of sequence.

WEREWOLF EPISODE LIST

The dates given are the show dates in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area.

This is the first run on the Fox network; episodes were shown in a different order on USA and were re-cut for three commercial breaks instead of two and in many case were also shortened.

Werewolves designed by Rick Baker (The Skorzeny werewolf was originally to have been the Eric Cord werewolf, but was decided to look too 'evil'. Baker then drew up the Eric werewolf with gentler features. For more info on this, plus some nifty stills, see Fangoria #68) (Rick Baker's sketches were included in a travelling 'makeup effects exhibit' that was making the rounds at museums in the early 90's)

Transformations & Makeup by Greg Cannom.

Skorzeny werewolf - dark brown/black fur, black skin, left side of muzzle eaten away from just under the eye to the jawline as if by acid - the eye is intact. Upper jaw about 1/2" longer than the lower; single canines. Tall - over 6'6" - in height. Skorzeny rips his skin off to effect the transformation. Skorzeny seems to be both more sensitive of when a transformation is coming and able to force a shift when needed, even to control timing of a "called" shift.

Eric werewolf - light brownish-tan fur, brownish skin. Shorter perhaps 5'4". Pockets under the eyes on either side of the muzzle. Both ears are notched about an inch from the tips. Full form has dual upper canines, although the transitional does not. Is very recognizent of the memories and desires of Eric, although Eric can remember very little of what happens when he shifts, other than the euphoria. This suit does double duty as Terry in the pilot.

Remy werewolf - darker brown fur, brownish-black skin. This suit seems to be the same one used whenever a "third" werewolf was needed - the suit is first seen in Let Us Prey, and the only time Remy shifts in To Dream Of Wolves. It is hard to tell this suit from Eric's at a glance. Remy himself seems to shift partially when angry. Remy can force other weres to shift.

Shifting seems to fall into two categories - "called" in which there is much foreshadowing of the shift, including the pentagram, without any causative trauma; and, "self-induced" in which either there has been major trauma (being shot, for example) or the desire to shift - these are not always accompanied by the pentagram-blister in the palm. Terry (Eric's roomate in the pilot), Skorzeny, and Eric himself all have foreknowledge of shifting at times ("called"), while Skorzeny, Eric, Remy, Brother Mark, Michelle, Grey Wolf, Marta, and Diane all can also control their shifts ("self- induced").
