The Wolf Man from 'The Wolf Man' (1941)

Even a man who is pure in heart and says his prayers by night, may become a wolf when the wolfbane blooms and the autumn moon is bright.

Powers:

The Curse of Lycanthropy: After being bitten by a werewolf, Larry Talbot is forced to undergo a transformation from man into beast-man, possessing little intellect and driven purely by savage instinct. Talbot's curse prevents him from dying through conventional means, but he can be 'killed' through being attacked with weapons made of silver. Talbot cannot die through any other means, and even when struck by silver, shot by silver, or what have you, Talbot can return to life through the light of the full moon.

As a Wolf Man, Talbot has the following abilities:

  • Tracking: Rm (30)
  • Natural Weaponry: Claws: Ex (20) (acts a a mystical attack)
  • Natural Weaponry: Bite: Rm (30), victim must make an Endurance FEAT versus the severity of the bite or risk contracting lycanthrope. If the Victim is reduced to 0 health or Shift 0 Endurance, they will most assuredly contract the disease, no role.
  • Hyper Running: Gd (10)
  • Regeneration: Ex (20)
  • Stealth: Ex (20)
  • Functional Immortality; Talbot can be reduced to 0 health, but will not die, instead entering a death-like trance due to the nature of his curse and will begin to regenerate. Only a weapon forged from pure silver will kill him, and even then, it must be absolutely pure.
  • Berserker: The werewolf will go berserk when injured, causing it to forget pain and raising it's attributed by +1cs while reducing it's reason and psyche.


Contacts:
Sir John Talbot: Father
Gwen Conliffe: Love Interest

Limitations:

  • Uncontrollable Change: Talbot is forced to transform into the Wolf Man whenever the moon is full. Under these transformations, the wolf man is purely bestial, and remains a savage killer
  • Disease Carrier: Talbot is the carrier of the curse of lycanthropy
  • Dark Secret: Few people know that Talbot is the Wolf Man.
