@LSM36 I believe, Werewolves can be Born or Turned (Gifted or Cursed)
However Just as a Parent can disown their child, the Alpha can also disown their Beta/Omega.
Just as The Great Peter Hale said, "You were my beta first... It was my bite that changed your life, and my bite that can end it."
And while death may be the alternative, I think for the Sim's case, If the Alpha Bites their beta/Omega, They Lose their powers and become human. I see your point tho, I guess just leave it out there, The Alpha can use "The Bite" interaction to turn a Human into a werewolf, as well as their werewolf back into a human, even a genetically born werewolf. Just for the option. I thought it would give some danger. for example your sim just wants to be a werewolf. So they get themselves bitten, but have no desire to be part of a pack, which is insulting to the Alpha, which would cause the Alpha to prey on the Omega/Beta, and revoke the Gift.
The difference between Born and Turned werewolves is; Born, have a slightly easier time mastering their shifts, where a turned werewolf, will have a more difficult time.
It would be more of a self made power, That's why I think they should Leave the concept of it being the Oldest or the Strongest. that way the player can shape the werewolf who will succeed the Alpha when they pass away. The Beta who has the Highest level of Control, Strength, Agility, Fiercest Howl. Or they could make a Dominant trait/Skill line in the werewolf Strengths and Weaknesses too. if trait then Werewolves with Dominant trait excel at werewolf skills quicker. and I wouldn't be keen on giving every werewolf I create that trait so it works.
I don't really enjoy weaknesses, not really a fan of how they made it in Vampires.
I feel for werewolves If I want my werewolf to have a weakness I'll choose one.
Like my character's Son Caleb will take on Beast form at the age of 13, and lose his humanity for the next 90 years. And his son will probably have Impulsive Canine Disorder, and a Low Metabolism.
Briarwood, I felt I was original with it... I can't think of any other fictional cities with the name.
