HOWL YOUR MELANCHOLY QUESTION .
&& SO BEGINS a canon compliant werewolf au … or is it more of a verse ? hm .
there have always been very few lines of werewolves in fódlan , dwindling with the ages that pass . in the current time , the number of werewolf bloodlines could likely be counted on one’s hands . scarcely known by humanity at large , they’ve been met with thankfully little resistance ( && little interference . they’ve been left to live their lives , something marianne’s parents && marianne herself are certainly grateful . )
they are powerful , whether as a human or wolf , deceptively so —— && they live , && live && live . the idea of attempting to kill a werewolf by striking for the heart is foolish , for the risk is far too high ( although never noted , never acknowledged , silver weapons bring about a burning pain / white - hot / lingering . ) even in their human form , they possess heightened senses && reflexes , in some cases far more than normal .
werewolves can take either form at will , no matter time or conditions , && most have a fair amount of control over their more canine selves , especially during their transformations at will ( though not all , not all . marianne is glad to be in control . ) the full moon’s pull , however , while far from irresistible is certainly compelling , immensely so . while it can be held back , the desire to shift beneath the moon , the werewolf is left more than simply exhausted ( marianne tends to sleep most of the following day away , though it varies for others . )
maurice’s bloodlines is one of the few still strong ( && cursed , cursed , cursed ) , with the progenitor himself still roaming fódlan , as one who has shed his human form to wander eternally as a wolf . marianne’s father was one , && marianne is in turn . she’s more than accepted the fact , though is well aware of how hesitant others may be when faced with the truth of her blood . she is thankful for her control , strives to hide it from those she cares for ( she doesn’t wish to drive them away . )
her father disappeared one night , && her mother with him —— she knows not what happened , desires not to learn , curses && condemns herself for it . edmund takes her in , knows the truth of who she is && what she is ( there’s one person , at least , who won’t cast her out . ) marianne is sent to the officer’s academy with the express order to hide it , hide her bloodline && her crest && it all .
it’s easy , in some ways . she’s never had a great preference for meat , settling fish or simple vegetables . she finds it easier than expected to slink away when the urge hits her . she goes on && on && on , living through her academy days ( she confides her troubles in the animals , her friends , willing to listen && fearless of the beast . she is grateful for them , && for the strange mixture of abilities she has been blessed with . )
she is perhaps more open post - timeskip , in one way or another , more comfortable && understanding of all that is marianne von edmund ( && in turn , other people , their reactions && their understanding / their comprehension && their acceptance . ) she has wandered / grown / learned / lived .
