Introduction
We all know the german lore of little red riding hood. A young virgin girl who ventured into a wood to visit her grandmother only to be ensnared by a male predator, depicted as a ferocious wild wolf.
It's casually dismissed as a dark fairy tale, something some old man made up in order to make his young daughters aware of certain dangers. How would you feel if I told you it was based on a true account. Long ago in the Black Forest of Germany there was indeed, a young girl (who happened to be a virgin). She did indeed come across a predator in the woods, a creature who was neither man nor beast and this creature did sweep her away...and she was never seen again.
This creature looked like a man, this man was also a beast and this beast was a werewolf and he was not alone.
Simplified Plot Scheme
A young human girl is whisked into a new world when the Human and Nith society extraordinarily collide. A young werewolf chooses an unwilling and fairly cowardly heroine to be his potential mate and drags her kicking and screaming into his mismatch family of werewolves. Much drama and stimulation will commence. Will she conform and become the latest edition to the Nith world? Will she escape and find her way home? Or will tragedy strike as she becomes just another name on the missing people's list. There will be room for agressive fights, romance, house-hold wars, comedy and of course deep drama in this roleplay. It's safe to presume this is not the average teenage love-story and I will be playing the human to prevent any misfortunate teenies from snapping up the role and destroying everything.
General Information
About WEREWOLVES
A werewolf is one of the supernatural creatures that make up the Nith, a society of various supernaturals that exist in secrecy from the "human" society.
Born or turned, werewolves are werewolves. There is no hierarchy, there is no weaker gene, once an individual is turned they leave their humanity behind. Werewolves have two forms, one that can be mistaken for the human form and a "wolf form". Werewolf blood is very strong and contagious, only few species can survive having their blood mixed with a werewolves.
Physical information:
The 'human form' is strong and limber. In this form they can run long lengths at a fast pace, they can lift large weights and consume vast amounts of food and drink per day. A punch in the stomach from a healthy werewolf would break the average humans spine in this form. The five senses remain fantastic and the same in both forms. This form is obviously camouflage in order to protect the species from their combined prey and predator- humans.
The 'wolf form' is even stronger. In this form they physically appear as a wolf, but their size is far larger than the kind of wolves humans are adapted to seeing. The Largest werewolf recorded in this form was the height of a telephone box (measured from shoulders to the ground, doesn't include added head and neck height) In this form they are much more stronger, faster and coordinated with others of their kind. A bite from a healthy werewolf in this form would slice an exceptional human in half with ease.
Dietary habits:
werewolves are renown for their gory diets in a majority of stories.
Werewolves get the most out of eating human organs, this is a great way for them to stay in top form.
Ordinary (human) food doesn't do them any harm, but certain products can upset their stomachs. It depends on the individual. Consuming large amounts of fast food can leave them feeling sluggish and still hungry, it may taste good but it wont fill the spot.
Water and blood does a werewolf justice when they're feeling thirsty. Once again, unhealthy fizzy drinks and some human drinks won't entirely quench their thirst and alcohol has a much more devastating effect on their senses.
Differences between the sexes:
Males are dominant, competitive and sexually driven to a fault. No matter how "nice and sensitive" they seem, those three traits are in there somewhere and they will bubble up to the surface often. No matter how friendly males are with one another, a best friend is no friend when mates, territory, pride and other alpha male things are involved. So don't step on a bro's paw if you value his friendship.
Males are much bigger than females, but there are always the oddballs. There is rarely EVER a weakling. They aren't necessarily better than their opposite sex, but they do have more brute force due to sheer size.
Females are debatably worse. Always the more snappy sex, they are very fixated on their mates. If another female is sniffing around a lady's man, there'll be some serious friction. They like to respect one another's territory but when a female challenges a female the house will be in an uproar. A male cannot simply, leave one female for another without battle commencing, it's a matter of proving who is in fact the better female no matter his decision.
Females are smaller than males, but there are always oddballs. Where there has been slightly weaker females there has always been slightly stronger ones who rival their opposite sex. They may not have as much brute force but females are more agile.
Both sexes can be very closely knitted to their opposite and same sex companions, sleeping together, being naked together and other things that could leave other species uncomfortable, aren't necessarily an issue to werewolves.
Mates:
When it comes to partnerships, there is no such thing as together forever. It's not until werewolves get older that they settle for the best they can get, while young they bounce around trying to find the mate best suited for them, if someone better comes along after a long or short streak with the same mate a werewolf will happily move on at the drop of a hat for someone more appealing.
Werewolves do not mate within their own blood related families, so no incest, but some families are made up of various separate bloodlines so they could find someone they grew up with a potential mate. If a werewolf cannot find a mate amongst those they have seen and don't fancy stealing someone else's mate, there's always a third option...(and no it's not celibacy)
Humans are very adaptable, and compatible with the werewolf gene. It is not uncommon for a werewolf to venture out into the human society and return with a human they have groomed and selected as a future mate. In these cases the werewolf tends to stay with the human-turned werewolf mate for a very long time, even forever. In other cases the werewolf can grow bored where they have made a bad choice or mistake.
General Information
About HUMANS
The average human is clumsy, naive and a danger to themselves more than others. Their beliefs, cultures and intelligence vary. They have a large gene pool and happen to be very compatible with the werewolf gene. They make fantastic werewolf mates if a werewolf decides to bring new blood into the family. Overall a fairly adaptable but admittedly fragile species that become most dangerous when in large groups.

Rules and Information
Character profiles say plenty about both the character and the person roleplaying them so please; put effort into creating your character/s, write a decent amount of information where it's required and be unique, I have given opportunities to reserve character places but by all means I will not accept your character if its shoddy and poor. The characters that will benefit the role-play most will be accepted.
Swearing is acceptable but please do not use foul language excessively. If it benefits the storyline or is apart of your characters personality to swear often that's fairly understandable but if happy-go-lucky good boy Fred has a load of filth fall out of his mouth every time he opens it, well it doesn't really make sense.
Sexual reference is acceptable, this is intended to be a pretty mature role-play so I expect you to be mature about referencing to sex etc. According to RPG rules no full out, lusty descriptions of the birds and the bees is allowed and to be honest we don't really need it described. If you do have a lust for describing it though pm the player and let us know if you came to any important conclusions.
> Basic rules apply towards godmoding etc. No mary sues etc.
> I am your GM, please respect my preferences and decisions.
> There will be many aspects involved in this role-play via drama, fights, romance and other things. Please respect and acknowledge the theme of the role-play at various times. If it is a sad, tense moment don't have your character try and crack a joke. I've seen this wreck many important moments in a role-play.
