That part I am having a bit of difficulty with - I like the idea of both bi-pedal or wolf 'forms' for the werewolves. I don't know how I want them to turn either willingly or not, with the moon or not, but keeping the alchemist's potion type stuff to regulate when they can and can't under go their transitions. Just there is a lot of stuff that I want to sort out about this and I'll likely do that over the next few days if I get the chance. I've got a few family things (good things) coming up tomorrow and the day after. 

I like the idea that the werewolves would be more tribal than anything else and they would come together as a whole during special occasions and holidays. I really love anthropology and learning about people who still live in tribes today really interested me and I think it'd help our story. With a tribal type of setting there is a lot more room for diversity in the werewolf communities (like names and other simple traditions) as well as giving our tyrants a bit more leverage by managing to bring down more than one of the tribes within this area and forcing the others into hiding. 

One thing I'd like to try is giving the werewolves a bit of traditions rather than what we think of with werewolves. The appeal of making them different from other things with werewolves really is just something I'd like to try at least once here.
