Sup people! Name's Shiek. At least as far as you know it is! <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_razz.gif" alt=":P" title="Razz" /><!-- s --> Hope to have fun here on the forum......

My element is water (as far as i can tell) and me iz a were! Or wolf..or whatever u wanna call it, but no wolfman...it sounds too Hollywood ya know?

Hey Shiek, welcome to OKP!

Please, watch your grammar though. Some of our users are not native English speakers so please don't use chat speak here, thanks.

Also, how did you come to the conclusion you are a wolf?

Ok on the grammar, i'll keep it more of a......readable standard.

With respect to me being a wolf, i stare at the moon, i howl at it, i have enhanced agility, i growl at stuff, i can talk to dogs, (among other animals) I am comfortable walking on all fours, i'm a bit hairy, and thats about it, it just feels right. (I also have a wolf ears and a wolf tail, which i use to sense stuff)

EDIT: I forgot to mention, i get bloodlusts, and i drink blood too. Mostly, one specific person's, but she is none of anyone elses concern. I also have claws! And enhanced sense of smell and hearing.

Welcome <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile" /><!-- s -->

Staring at/howling at the moon, growling at stuff, communicating with dogs, and the like...doesn't make you a wolf...it makes you human. When you say you have "wolf ears and a wolf tail" and "claws" do you mean physically or are you referring to phantom limbs? Because it's physically impossible for a human being to have physical wolf parts and claws. Finally, it's also impossible to have a sense of hearing and smell and "enhanced agility" that surpasses that of human possibility. You are limited by your DNA in what you are and are not capable of.

Yeah phantom limbs or whatever..i don't use words....They just make everything complicated.

You should use words so people know what you're talking about...and actual words at that. As Elinox said, not everyone here is a native english speaker, so in that vein, please change your signature to say "your" as "ur" isn't a word.

I'm sure he means physical enhancements through his energy and flow. Especially since they're quite common among spiritually aware humans, and I'm sure especially so among otherkin, yes?
And, if he didn't mean spiritual limbs, he would be in a lot of medical books by now, don't you think? <!-- s --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" /><!-- s -->

And just a side note, it is possible for humans to have non-human parts. There was specifically a case where a man's immune system was incomplete. His body couldn't tell the difference between plant and animal cells. When he fell and scraped his knee on a tree branch when he was younger, his body began producing plant cells instead of animal ones.
There are several videos on YouTube of him, and even a couple news reports about "tree man". I remember this because after I had heard about it, I figured out exactly what was causing it within 10 minutes of solid thought, when it took the professionals 5 months to figure it out.

Actually, I've proven its quite possible to live without words. There was a time, for a full year, I had goen without speaking. 365 days, without a word to anyone, and everyone still perfectly understood what I was trying to convey.

The fact remains that no "enhacement" can or will surpass human ability.

If he provided any proof of such a claim, yes...however plenty of people claim things like p-shifting and provide zero evidence because, of course, they are lying. Plenty of people claim the impossible.

The "tree man" is a product of HPV (the Human Papilloma Virus) NOT tree parts growing on a human being because that is impossible. Medicine might use animal parts, such as pig parts, on people who then have to take all kinds of medications to keep the organ parts from rejecting, but that's as hybridized as a human can get.

Yes, but this is a forum. Words are necessary.

Not to rain on your parade or be harsh, but to me, your entire intro post screams of roleplaying and romanticized stories regarding werewolves. In other words, the Hollywood version you mentioned that you dislike.

Beyond what you've already listed, which as Sera already said can also simply be human-related stuff, what makes you identify as a wolf? And if everything you listed is therian-related, why wouldn't you identify as something like a wolverine which is usually much more aggressive than a wolf? What made you think 'wolf' over any other species?

Nothing is impossible, just not very probable.
Also, humans only ever use 20% of their brain, and 10% of their muscles. Even bodybuilders can only use around 20% at most of their human muscular capabilities because the body limits itself to such.
I'd think it would be entirely possible to bypass those limiters and have "inhuman" or "superhuman" capabilities, simply because of where modern standards of strength are set.

Well, he could have accidentally run across radioactive gene splicing.
That'd be a pretty interesting find, eh?

Not entirely. I've also had entire conversations with IM emotes.
