Okay. OCD satisfied! xD

Love that this starts in winter! I'm so sick of summer it isn't funny. Mmm. Hot chocolate. And ooh! So it's the classic turned/created werewolves, not born-into-it werewolves! Or a mix thereof? Either way, cool!

A'right! Down to business! Where, exactly, is it we're starting here? Like, where in the timeline? Is this before or after the werewolves reveal their existence? Is their meeting for something regarding the pre-mentioned murder(s), or something just before? Maybe, since he ended up being one of those on the front line for the reveal, he basically has FBI handlers recruited to look into him more and both help keep him safe from those hostile against the idea, and to make sure that the people of the city are safe from him. Oh, and on him, how old does he appear in current RP time? Same as when he lost his family?

Then, what would you say to humans still being on the skeptical side? Like, some believe it's real, others think it's an elaborate hoax, while still more are on the fence about it? Would indicate it's something extremely new.

Then, did we want use our own fictitious city for this, or base it off of a real-world one (with creative liberties)? Or... we could mix it. Base it off of a real-world city, but it's set sort of in an alternate dimension type deal? Either way, since he's a face of it all, I feel like a larger, prominent city might fit nicely. Makes for more the potential of larger trouble. What say you? And are you okay with me making a pair of agents rather than just one? I feel like they'd likely get sent out in a pair for something like this. One would likely be more of the dominant MC for me, while the other would be more an important secondary.

And I feel like we need to name the event of them coming out. Give it an acronym or something. Seems like something society would do. Hmm. My brain has one suggestion to offer for that right now:
The W.I.R. (pronounced Weer?) Project? Short for Werewolves Interpolation Reveal?

Oh, and what are the abilities of your werewolves? Like, how would their skills help in a murder investigation? What could they pick out or not pick out from something like that, and can they smell/sense other supernatural creatures nearby?

Hooray! I don’t mind that you reserved a couple of spots, I think it’s a smart idea. Better safe than sorry. Always. :D

Time to start answering some questions! Ha ha! I am glad that you are OK with it set in the winter. I’m tired of it being hot too...

In regards to the timing, I imagined we would be starting the story a few months after the werewolves have come out to the public. The idea is still sinking in with the general population, but government interactions would be starting to become a regular thing. The catalyst for our characters to be meeting would be the sudden slew of murders and disappearances. The leaders of the werewolves are worried that the humans are going to jump on the situation and point the fingers at the newly revealed monsters immediately, so they are trying to show good Grace by offering to help with an investigation. Werewolves can detect, in most cases, other supernatural creatures using their sense of smell. They are also very strong and very fast.

In regards to William, and the rest of the werewolves as a matter of fact, he actually appears to be in his prime. So even though he was changed when he was starting to get wrinkles and gray hair’s, he doesn’t have either of those now. The change gives them permanent youth as long as they are alive.

Oh, I would definitely expect the humans to still be skeptical, as mentioned with this being said right after the reveal.

Ah yes, the city. Hmm... I I think it should definitely be a major city, that’s for sure. And I like the idea of it being an existing city, but us taking creative liberties with it, give it our own spin. I can imagine something in the Midwest, somewhere that they are likely to get a lot of snow. Chicago, Rochester, Boston, things like that. I am OK with wherever if you would like to pick something. :)

W. I. R. Project? I like it! I think that could work. If I can come up with anything else, I’ll let you know.

If I repeat myself, I apologize. I’ll just put some general information about werewolves here. Some of this would be known, some of it still unrevealed.

Werewolves are created, not born. At least, there has never been a documented account of a person that was born already a werewolf. Werewolf females cannot become pregnant, the change is too violent and they spontaneously miscarry any pregnancies. But it takes more than a scratch or a bite to become a werewolf. The person has to survive an attack so vicious that it would otherwise leave them dead, allowing the magic of the change to infiltrate their body. When successful, they recover rapidly. Because of the violent nature of the change, it is much more common to have men become werewolves rather than women, due to their naturally stronger bodies.

Werewolves have a perpetual look of youth about them, an adult in their prime. They are not affected by sickness or disease. People who are changed when they are older revert to a state of prime and any existing conditions of illness are eliminated.

Werewolves can change outside of the full moon. While every werewolf Hass to change when the moon is full, it is not the only time that they have the ability to change. Changing is a painful, lengthy process. The more dominant a wolf is, the less time it usually takes, but the average amount of time is anywhere from 10 to 15 minutes.

Werewolves resemble regular wolves, Though a hybrid form is possible, though it is difficult. Unlike regular wolves however, werewolves are much larger and more densely muscled, have much larger fangs, and are built more like a large cat or bear throughout their shoulders and front legs. Their coloring also much more resembles the wider variety of dogs rather than the Limited grays of Timberwolves. Werewolf eyecolor changes depending on if they are fully human or the wolf is close to the surface as well. Because they are so densely muscled, they cannot swim, much like chimpanzees.

Werewolves have hot tempers, but more dominant wolves are able to control those beneath them.

Werewolves are structured into packs, With an alpha at the head. Loan wolves are very rare. On the North American continent, there is one alpha werewolf that is more dominant than every other wolf and is considered to be the alpha of all the alphas. He has the last say on any major decision, but regularly leaves smaller decisions to the appointed alphas over the packs spread out across the continent.

Werewolves are faster and stronger than any human. Their senses of smell and hearing our keener as well. They also have the ability to heal quickly from any injury. Silver is very harmful to them however, the wounds from anything that includes silver taking much longer to heal. Even just touching a werewolf with silver burns them.

Staring a werewolf in the eyes triggers and instinctive reaction, as they take it as a dominance challenge. This is especially dangerous for humans. Most older werewolves have learned tricks to avoid unnecessarily starting a dominance stare down, though most humans instinctively know to look away, though they don’t understand why.

That’s all I can think of at the moment. I’ll add any additional information here if it comes to mind. And of course, feel free to ask any further questions. :3

Just realized that I never thanked you for all that information! And all the thought you put into it. So, thanks much!

And hope you don't mind that I assumed Will followed. If you need me to erase or edit anything to better accommodate him, just let me know!

Well, you’re welcome! I was happy to do it! It helps cement details and creates a convenient place to look at them should I need to remember if something exists. :)

Oh, He definitely would’ve followed. That’s fine! If ever I have a problem with something, I’ll let you know. But really, it’d have to be something more major to bother me.

Yes, that was quite the wait, but honestly, that’s okay. You know that things got busy and then drastically changed rather abruptly, so there hasn’t been time for me to really worry about it. Not going to lie, your timing is perfect though. I was just starting to crave doing some creative writing. You know, in between all of the work and being a mommy. ;)

Your reply wasn’t short! Silly. I didn’t feel like it was anyway. I enjoyed it!

And congratulations again with becoming a mother! I bet your little one's been keeping you rather busy. Heh. Glad I at least had decent timing! I'll try to not make you wait that long again. Holidays are over, so I should have a bit more time to respond to things now.

Well, I meant more compared to how long I took. I was just like, "It took me that long for just that many words?!" *Facepalm.* That type thing. :-) Inspiration can be annoying.

Ha ha! He certainly is doing that! It’s a good thing I find him so adorable. But thank you!

I’ll be grateful for your responses, when I get around to my own of course. And yes, I can understand that! Ha ha! But really, no worries! I know you’ve been busy!

Ha! Well, I should hope you find him adorable! A mom's supposed to be biased.

I currently have a friend in town, but will get to work on a reply a.s.a.p.! She's a writer/roleplayer, too, so writing time isn't out of the picture during her visit. :-)
