'''Infliction''': This is not so much inflction as triggering. It requires quite a remarkable set of circumstances but it does happen. The were must be of the same type (A were-ferret could trigger a were-skunk, but not a were-cat). The triggering were must also be feral and have the same mooncurse. This overrides suppression by deadly nightshade

'''Parental trigger''': This in Elled has become the most common method A parent uses a small amount of magic to charge their offsprings  blood. This enables the transformation  to take place in a controlled way. Not as much magic is need as for infliction though

'''Technical triggering''': If a were is changed out of the shape they have they spring back to their mooncurse form. Not many are missed but some are.

General Description

Weres can change shape and despite legends, normally they are no more nor any less vunerable than any other creatures to any normal method of dealing injurys The difference comes in when they go feral. At the full moon weres are actually at their weakest, and become trapped in a single form. What happened is that those who were not cautious enough went into a feral state, in order to defend themselves. And this is how the legends were born.


Types of weres

There are four main types of weres in existence. Though each can have a certain amount of subdivison.


Were forms

Weres in theory can have up to five forms- human, minor breed, half-, -kin, animal But in reality can only have at maximum four which is a rarity in itself. All weres have a human form. (That's why they're weres....)

Triggering

Certain weres need to be triggered before the switch. There are the two obvious methods out of legend, moon and infliction.There are to less legendary but now better known methods. Truiggering by a pearent or b ebeing forced to change shape..
