I Believe In The Rise Of Werewolves

Hello...
For a long time I have questioned humans in their ways. I feel that certain things they do and beliefs they have are foolish. I know for a fact that there are good and loving humans out there, but they are drowned out by idiots and money or power-hungry destroyers. My family has long been affected by the horrific actions of frightened humans and so have I, time and time again. I've seen friends and family killed because of stupid rumors about our kind or because of a sad attempt at religious conquest. And now, in today's world, most do not evenbelieve in us. To even hint the possibility of werewolves is to be laughed at or even considered insane. All the deaths humans have caused to our kind have simply been swept under the mat and now they deny our existence. I know that there are many of our kind who keep it this way to protect them and their families, but I feel in my heart that it would be more dangerous to live in hiding than fight for the truth. If we expose ourselves, we risk our lives. But if we hide, we allow liars and idiots to reign over this world and continue to destroy it as well as kill many innocents of many species. There is little we can do alone, but together we can do unimaginable things.

To PantherNelipot, the transformation is complex. If you are raised without knowledge of it, there is a significant barrier in front of you: that of doubt. Humanity teaches that such things are impossible, and that belief that make shifting hard to do. At first, it may be painful, but you can eventually get to the point where you will it to happen. A long time ago, it was done without thought. It was as simple as running. Anymore, however, it is dangerous. Exposure can lead to death. Even as a simple wolf, one would be threatened by hunters. As a werewolf, one encounters hatred and unimaginable fear from humans. Some are accepting, or at least tolerant, but not enough.

Anyway, back to your question. Yes, there are other shifters. History speaks of them often. In fact, if my concepts of mass-energy are anywhere near correct, one could probably take any form they wish with enough practice. Although, taking a different form is not all it takes to be something like a werewolf. Non-humans have their own histories. Just looking human is not the whole of humanity, and it is the same for other beings.
