How would you make a Werewolf gamepack unique ?

I think it's unlikely, but it would be awesome if werewolves could actually transform into wolves that you could direct to scare sims and find collectables.

Woohoo, can cause them to transform. They need to eat a lot of meat, Make it a painful transformation. Have cursed and not cursed Werewolves. Cursed transform under a full moon they need meat no substitutes to survive and it has to always be raw whether transformed or not. They would be more aggressive and violent with no control over their abilities especially when they transformed. While a non-cursed werewolf can transform at will they eat meat but don't go ballistic if they haven't had any meat in 2 hours. They (non-cursed) can eat rare cooked meat nothing cooked more than that while cursed must eat raw meat. Weres should have heightened senses. Excellent night vision. They are very passionate and emotional. some to the point of being totally Emo. They don't trust humans. They hunt in packs and have a pack mentality. They have Alphas with a strong hierarchy. They will fight to the death when the hierarchy is challenged. They are extremely sociable with other werewolves, especially amongst kin. If you NOT part of their pack you have to earn their trust though they are more likely to ally themselves with other occult races especially other weres. Betray them and they well I won't get into the gruesome details of what will happen. they are extremely environmentally conscious.

Well, for a start, they'd be Werewolves, not swearwolves.

They'd get angsty around occults they don't know. And vampires would react to their angst with hissing.
But once they become friends with another occult, they become either super playful, or really laid back. Laid back, as in if sitting on a couch with the occult, will nap with their head on their lap. And super playful, as in will tackle to the ground with a hug as a greeting, and will interact playfully at least 50% of the time.

I'm just here to support these ideas. :D

I was thinking that these sims turn into animals, and they don’t like to be locked away indoors. Perhaps they could get a “out with the moon” when outside. On the filpside if the moon is out and your werewolf isn’t they would get tense, stressed. Need to go out and run a bit.

Hmm... that could be fun, no matter what you were planning for them they need “out time”. Don’t know if single parenting or holding down a job becomes too difficult with this. They need to catch up on sleep somehow.

Just brainstorming, having fun.

I'd like it if they were normally a sim but became a werewolf at night. There could be other times though like maybe they could chose to transform or if under extreme stress like low needs or explosive anger they would also become one. Not sure what they could do though as they are pretty against killing in this game. The fight animations have gotten good though... sparring and even the magical animations during dueling so maybe they could bat someone around pretty good... Maybe if they bite a sim would have to find an antidote within a certain time frame to avoid becoming one.
Otherwise I'm not up on current werewolf stuff.

Someone suggested a Native American pack. Perhaps a combination of that and the Warewolves for the Twilight fans out there?

I want werewolves that turn into actual wolves... yes, like twilight. lol
So they'd have a human form and a wolf form. You get to design the wolf form too!

Moon cycles. Introduce those to influence werewolves' ability to stay in their human form or be compelled to transform into their second form. As they "level up", they get better at control and could have a perk or skill on the skill tree that allows them to transform at will.

Have the option of the transformation being either a full wolf or more hybrid shape.

Bring a pack hierarchy within the system (a variation of clubs maybe, with more assigned roles than Club Leader) and different abilities. Yes, I'm aware that the wolf pack hierarchy theory has been debunked but in fiction it's still fun to adhere to.

Maybe make it a shapeshifter option so it's not only werwolves but various other possible animals that a Sim could transform into. Have them be able to communicate with dogs when they're in their wolf form.

As for transforming, I'd love if the devs delved into all the legends about how one can become a shifter: the obvious bite, but also drinking water from a paw or footprint left behind by another wolf (and I'm sure there are more).

I don't know if it's viable to have a full skill tree UI for werewolves but it might be possible with a variety of shapeshifter types. One branch leading to a full animal shift, one for a hybrid type, one for a full-on Underworld-style werewolf. Perks for enhanced senses would be nice too (sensing emotions in other Sims), "curses" like uncontrollable shifting or stronger sensitivity to the moon.

I'd prefer them getting their own GP, but a lot of the above could still be possible if they were a part of an EP.

There are some great ideas on this thread. I would love werewolves IF they could become full wolves. I think they should have the ability to find needed items or collectibles by smell in their wolf form. I think the idea of customizing their wolf form is awesome.

I think they should have a woodland world with places to run, hunt for items, and to gather as a pack. Maybe not an evergreen forest, but have more deciduous trees to distinguish it from Glimmerbrook and Granite Falls. There could be a secret area they go to in their wolf forms.

There should be pack dynamics, but lone wolves should be an option as well. Pack wolves should definitely make friends faster with members of their own pack and perhaps start with a positive relationship similar to family members. They should be able to fight for the position of leadership. The pack leader should be able to influence or force pack members to do certain actions.

I love the idea that they would need to eat meat. Perhaps they would react negatively to anyone proclaiming the virtues of vegetarianism. They would be tense in the city. Though perhaps a lone wolf would not or would be able to be away from nature longer.

Perhaps a special power would be the ability to go without sleep if they transform into their wolf form. This could be tied to the moon cycle.
