This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Torg Eternity takes an interesting spin on the werewolf bite. Those that will become werewolves are not the lucky survivors that escaped with their lives; they actually died of their wounds and the curse brings them back to a state of false life (not undeath). If they ever find a way to break the curse, they are no longer a werewolf, but they are also dead without the curse to sustain them.

So Vampires of sorts?
They're only similar to vampires in that both involve the victim's death leading to them becoming one of the monsters. These werewolves don't have any undead traits (i.e., they still age, eat, drink, breathe, shit, sweat, etc.) And their monstrous powers are obviously inspired from werewolves rather than vampires (in both cases, more pop culture inspired than any from old tales).

Nothing wrong with getting inspired by pop culture IMHO, just keep the sparkly and angst ridden Vampires away from me.

Here is why this forum tends to be so stupid. Many people here think Joe Biden is "The Left", when he is actually Far Right and every US republican is just an idiot.
