I bet many of you are wondering how someone is turned into a werewolf. We all know the most popular way which involves being bitten by another werewolf. But if you take a look at folklore, old customs and traditions throughout the world you’ll learn that there are several ways someone was believed to turn into a werewolf. A warning though, many of these ideas came from the middle ages, a time when people believed in most anything, so some things on this list may be a bit ridiculous.
How To Become A Werewolf
- Being bitten by another werewolf
- Being scratched or clawed by another werewolf
- Selling your soul to the devil
- Wearing an enchanted belt made of wolf skin/fur, known as a wolf-belt
- Applying a magic salve to one’s body
- Black magic and witchcraft
- Eating lycanthropous flowers (white or yellow flowers said to be in the Balkans)
- Inhaling certain potions
- Simply wearing an animal’s pelt
- Placing a real wolf pelt on one’s body and then drinking beer mixed with blood
- Drinking water from a wolf’s paw print
- Eating the brains of a wolf
- Spells and rituals
- Having sex with a werewolf
- Eating an unborn fetus
- Wearing a belt made of the skin of a executed criminal
- Being cursed by a witch or troll
- Being born on Christmas Eve
- Being blasphemous and getting cursed for your sins
- Genetics (having a werewolf in your family)
- Drinking from a lycanthropous stream
- Drinking downstream from wolves
- Sleeping on a Friday night under the full moon with the moon shining directly on your face

- Being a child conceived under a new moon
- Not going to confession for 10 years
- Being gruesomely murdered on a full moon

Like I said, folks in the middle ages believed in anything. Instead of explaining things with science, they explained it with religion and superstition. So for those that wish to become a werewolf, don’t expect any of these methods to actually work.

Ok there’s a LOT of fakers on here… first of all, no random lycanthrope is gonna bite a human who just ASKS, even if they promise to join the lycanthrope’s pack. it’d be like having a pack full of baby lycanthropes. Secondly, yes, biting is pretty much the only legit way to become a werewolf. Lycanthropes have venom glands that they can activate at more or less will. Third, a lycanthrope CANNOT function without a pack. most Lycanthropes form makeshift packs to fit in with humans, and may not even tell their pack that they’re a Lycanthrope. they might just say they’re a ‘friend group’. Third, a Lycanthrope’s shifting is triggered by puberty, NOT a birthday. this can be as early as 10 or as late as 16, though usually falls within the range of 12-14. Fourth, don’t have sex with a lycanthrope or werewolf, it’s very disrespectful to the lycanthrope’s Life Mate, and it wont end up with you two together. Fifth, a Lycanthrope can shift at will, though it’s easier during a full moon. Sixth, after a Bite, you’d need a Lycanthrope to guide you through the process of Changing, else it could get… dangerous. For you, and your family. A blood Lycanthrope has its childhood to learn to deal with their impulses in human society, then teenage years to learn to deal with Shifts and grow spiritually closer to their Life Mate. a Bitten werewolf would have to go through about 15 years of learning in as quickly as physically possible; learning to regulate impulses like attacking people who anger you, figuring out how to control Shifts(a Lycanthrope can have an extraordinary amount of control when it comes to Shifts- anything from just slightly different hand or rib shape to a full Shift), and of course learning to hide your identity, and recognize Vampires, Fae, Humans, and other Werewolves/Lycanthropes.
for any Lycanthropes on here who just need some advice on that: Lycanthropes like to walk on their toes(without heels touching the floor at any point) and tend to have sturdy bodies and a rolling gait. Vampires prefer to walk with toes first, then a heel strike, giving an overall impression of some sort of military commander. of course these dont always work, because Lycanthropes and Vampires have learned to hide their gate from Humans. Fae have pointed ears, but may not know their Faeries because Changelings still exist(fae that have been swapped for a Human baby). Humans… are pretty much just ‘whatever else is left’. yes Vampires and Lycanthropes don’t usually get along, though individual friendships still absolutely exist, and they’re trying to not start wars lately. the reason is because, yes, they both used to eat Humans because they both looked Humanoid enough to trick Humans into trusting them. turned into a sort of turf war business then just went from there.
In any case, yall humans dont want to be Werewolves, it means pretty much crushing loneliness from being unable to find a Pack or even have a Clan(packs are those you live and work with, similar to a hippie commune type setup, Clans are more like extended family), and being unable to show the world who you are for safety reasons can be awful. Not to mention, you’ll be unlikely to have all the instincts of a Lycanthrope, meaning your access to Lycanthrope culture will be severely limited. You might even be unable to find a Mate. seriously, YOU DO NOT WANT TO BE A LYCANTHROPE. it’s not that it’s truly terrible, it’s that starting as Human would make it too difficult of an adjustment. you might THINK you could handle this on your own, but you can’t. no one can. it’s difficult enough to hide their identity from the world WITHOUT having to rely on Bitten werewolves to BE QUIET and be able to control their new impulses. you dont even get superstrength on a regular basis, it’s only a ‘when i’m angry i can lift a solid wood table as easily as a midsize dog’ thing. plus the Bite is prone to infections. and Shifting is incredibly exhausting, especially the first few times. Yes, even partial shifts are tiring. basically, just dont ask for it, dont do it, dont want it.
if you feel like you’re a wolf, not a Lycanthrope which is in fact its own species, check out therian communities. You might find a home there with other people who feel like they should be a different animal, but aren’t genetically, or were an animal in a past life, or have a soul that COULD be a different animal’s soul.
