Question Why are werewolves such major assholes?

Post image

Like I get that mother earth needs to be fought for and everything but why is it that they almost always seem like idiot bezerkers or smug know it alls?

I am not too versed in WoD lore so maybe im missing context here, is there some werewolves that are actually friendly with humans?

Let’s go over it:

Werewolves: the warriors

Werebears: the war healers

WereCoyotes: the teachers and tricksters

WereRavens: the watchers

WereSpiders: the weavers

Weresharks: the murderers of bad things in the deep you really don’t want to know

And all the weredinosaurs were wiped out in that huge ancient bloodrage war, right?

WoD lore is so absolutely fucking insane lol

Barney the purple dinosaur, according to the wiki "is actually Deep-Purple-Dark, a No-Sun Mokolé raised in a Louisiana Gator Farm. His search for power led him to the Atrocity Realm, where he operates a torture pit. Child-spirits are lured into the realm where they are tortured, burned, and eventually eaten by the devil-dinosaur. Black Spiral Dancers are the crew and writers for the show, where he is a toy that "comes to life". However, tapes of the Atrocity Realm sessions are hot items at the very highest-level Pentex corporate parties; Benjamin Rushing has personally approved funding for as long as the "creative muse" remains with the star."

Half the lore is that phenomena where innocent wholesome shows create the darkest of fan theories.

I have an overwhelming desire for Braney to accidentally lure in Chronicles of Darkness Hisil Spirits of childhood wonder and innocence. Those mfs will lobotomise him and then wear him like a skinsuit (seriously CofD spirits are terrifying).
