Moonwood Mill Gossip 🌖

i haven't found a list of all moonwood townies replies to "Ask About Moonwood Mill" dialogue option aside from a few that people took screenshots of, so i dived into the game code and compiled all replies into one post. would be nice of someone to add them to wiki like someone did with Ravenwood townies.

there are so many that i have never got and read for the first time now, wow!

GREG

I put up those signs for a reason. You'd think Sims would learn to read them.

Some say I'm mean. They say I'm gruff. A menace. You know what's mean? Gruff? What's really menacing? Life. Get used to it.

I don't like going up to the howling point with how many other wolves frequent it, but that's where it all started. Where the magical explosion happened. Curious? Well, too bad.

I hated the noise from the old mill. After they shut down, I tore it apart and dragged it into the tunnels where it can be forgotten. Now it can't be rebuilt!

Kristopher looks just like his mother. Reminds me of the old days. I hate it.

(35-60 Relationship Points)

I'm always watching.

I hate a lot of things, but the thing I hate more than anything else is a Vampire.

Vlad is perhaps the cleverest Vampire I've ever met. Don't mistake my compliment for admiration, though. He's a monster.

How old am I? I grew up in Old San Myshuno, back when the streets were filled with horses and carriages. Yeah, that's how old.

Not sure what happened to my diary. And honestly, I don't care. It's not like I write anymore.

(60-100 Relationship Points)

My family used to be in the textiles industry. My... mother was... Don't have much use for textiles nowadays.

During the Century Conflict, we captured Vlad and took him down into the tunnels. We figured we'd use him as leverage, end the conflict. But even in his youth, he was already too powerful. We couldn't hold him and he escaped.

I was a spellcaster hundreds of years ago, a master of the Untamed school. I stood atop that mountain, back when this area was simply called Moonwood, and with a group of other powerful spellcasters, we channeled the most powerful Moon Infusion spell that has ever been cast. The results were explosive... but effective. The Moonlight infused both us and the land around us. Why do you think the Moonpetal only grows atop that mountain? Where do you think the Luna Fish comes from? We made them. I made them.

I won't say her name... but I was married once. When she died, I had no use for my weaker form anymore, no reason to be anything other than a beast.

I had a dog familiar named Brutus. Back when I was a spellcaster. Don't look so surprised... when I transformed, we lost our bond, and he grew old and died just like any other pet. Everything we love dies.

RORY OAKLOW

(0-35 Relationship Points)

If I wasn't a Werewolf, I think I'd want to be a Mermaid. Surprised? Eh, don't be. They also have a connection to the moon, you know? With the tides and all that. Did you know mermaids can stay out of the water longer during a Full Moon?

The Moonwood Collective fears their own natural state. It's like they've built a fire that they only let smolder. Why not stoke that thing and have some fun? Just keep it contained to the fire pit, you know?

What are the Wildfangs about? All right, think of fury like the ocean. The Moonwood Collective wants to avoid it. Greg is drowning in it. The Wildfangs want to go for a swim. Sure, it's not 100% safe, but can you imagine living your whole life by the water and never taking a dip?

We may not be in the same pack anymore, but I love my little brother, Jacob. Always have, always will. And I think the Moonwood Collective suits him well. It just didn't work for me.

Just because I'm all about embracing the inner beast doesn't mean I'm opposed to someone seeking a cure. Be true to you. That's what's important. Just don't try to make me take it!

(35-60 Relationship Points)

I've never had a fated mate before. And even if fate decided to put me on the list, I don't really subscribe to that being the end-all-factor in who I end up with. I decide my fate.

Even as a kid, I had a strong sense of individuality. Yeah, Kristopher is my dad, but I've always been Rory Oaklow, you know? I'm not going to change my name for some elder Werewolf. Jacob wanted to. That's his decision, and I support that.

Other occults come here from time to time. Before coming here, I'd never met a Spellcaster! I was always around normie Sims, born and raised in a standard normie family. It's strange to think about now. I wouldn't want to go back to that.

Sure, normies are great, but they're not my pack, and they can never be. That's fine. You're close with the people you connect with, you run with the ones you trust, you know?

What would I do if I ever met Vlad Straud? I'd fight him, of course. He needs to know who the top dog around here is. And it's not going to be some ancient, evil Vampire.

(60-100 Relationship Points)

I don't talk much about my past. I was bit by a dog that'd somehow contracted lycanthropy. It doesn't usually happen, so it must have been a freak accident. I was with my family at the vet in Brindleton Bay—that's where I grew up. The day after my first transformation, my parents kicked me out. They didn't know how to handle the new me. Kristopher took me in. We don't agree on a lot of things these days, but I'll always remember his kindness.

When I became leader of a pack, I realized I was going to have to open myself to learning about what it means to be a leader each day. There's always a lot of pressure to care for the well-being of those who follow me, but I want to do right by the pack.

I learned the secrets to immortality early. Most werewolves don't, but I was able to by truly embracing who I am inside. I don't hide, and because of that, I'm more in tune with my inner wolf.

Kristopher thinks that if I keep heading down the path I'm on, I'll turn out like Greg. He can't be serious. I'm nothing like Greg. I'm in control. I just don't shy away from the fury inside me. I use it. Sure, it's a difficult balancing act, but I'm killing it.

The original Werewolves didn't deny their inner beasts. They embraced the moon and its magic, and they used it for good, keeping the Vampires from taking over. I don't think the Moonwood Collective would even be strong enough today to take on the Vampires if they started another conflict. The Wildfangs would be.

LOU HOWELL

(0-35 Relationship Points)

I love me some PowerSip MIDNIGHT! I'm glad they're always fighting the legal battles to make their next big flavor. Who wouldn't want to taste "midnight"? Seriously, they must have some spellcaster brewers making the stuff. How else do you harness the essence of night?

Who doesn't want to be an immortal wolf? I hear you need to be pretty powerful to pull it off. Don't worry, I'll get there soon.

Kristopher's a pretty cool Werewolf to have taken in everyone he has. Of course, he didn't take me in... so he kind of missed taking in the coolest wolf, but hey, he does an adequate job.

How did I end up in Moonwood Mill? Well, I stole a few things I probably shouldn't have, and I was on the run. I figured nobody would find me way out here in the middle of the wilderness. Guess I was right.

So I've snatched a few things over the years. A future cube, a few paintings, some children's toys — which I donated, so don't look at me like that! The best thing I ever took was a piano. Don't ask me how I did it. That's a secret.

(35-60 Relationship Points)

The Moonwood Collective isn't really my scene. They're too into nature. Have you seen them leaning on that old tree? No fire anywhere? BORING.

I'm not sure I like the idea of Vampires. I guess most Werewolves don't... Spellcasters on the other hand? They sound pretty cool. I'd get together with one.

Not sure how I feel about the concept of fated mates. Like, ONE Werewolf? FOREVER?? That's a lot of commitment.

Greg is kind of a problem. We all know it. I don't know why he came here in the first place if he doesn't want to join a pack and live like the rest of us.

So I asked Celene out on a date, yeah. We were going for a walk over that bridge, when I heard a helpless kid or something crying for help. I'm a pretty nice guy, so I was like, "Hey Celene, we gotta go help the kid." We braved going past those signs and all that, and we ran into Greg. Well, I had to try and protect Celene. She was pretty scared! So I ran up to him and suggested Greg leave us alone. No taunting or anything, just a stern suggestion. He didn't take kindly to that, and well... here we are. That's the truth of it all!

(60-100 Relationship Points)

Yeah, okay, I'll admit that I feel kind of bad about what happened to Celene. I know she was pretty traumatized by it all. She, well... we were both pretty scared. I don't know, I don't think I want to talk about it, even with you.

I'm always getting asked why I didn't take the antidote after our encounter, like Celene did. Well, I figured I was strong enough to ride it out. It was just a small bite! I guess I was wrong...

When you're the new wolf on the block, you'll notice that you certainly have less control than the others. Give it time, it gets better.

Rory was a lone Alpha until I joined her pack. It just felt right to me. We're a good fit as a pack and I like how she encourages me to explore being a Werewolf.

Who knows if I'd take a cure or not. I mean, right now? No. My pack is pretty cool. I'm still figuring out everything I can do. Why would I want to give that up?

KRISTOPHER VOLKOV

(0-35 Relationship Points)

I want to live a lifestyle that's symbiotic with nature, a self-sustainable sort of livelihood. The plants we nourish in turn provide us nourishment and the moon ties our world to others through its energy. Some call it magic. All Sims feel it, though some may not understand it. In Moonwood Mill, we connect with the night sky. On the Isle of Volpe in the Bramblewood, they connect with the animals — at least they did centuries ago. These natural wells of power are easy to find if you know where to look.

I used to work at the Moonwood Mill before the town dried up. Please don't ask how old that makes me! After it was torn down, all of the old equipment disappeared. I know where it is... but I have no idea how it got there.

I actually met Wolfgang here in Moonwood Mill. I believe he first came here to get away from the bustle of the city, to unwind. He discovered a lot more than he expected, I imagine. Ha!

When you lose control, you lose yourself. Something else takes over and you don't know what might happen. Every Werewolf is different, but pay attention to the way that your specific temperaments feed the beast inside and try to keep yourself level.

Rory had a rough time of it before I adopted her. Even if we don't always get along these days, I'm lucky to have had the opportunity to be her father.

(35-60 Relationship Points)

I've had arguments with Rory around our differing philosophies. Part of me is happy if she's happy, but part of me is afraid the Wildfang way is dangerous. I don't want an entire pack to turn out like Greg and lead others down that path...

I think it's unfortunate we don't have more non-were Sims around. My parents dreamed of building a truly special, hybrid community here in Moonwood Mill. It...hasn't been that way since I was much younger.

I've never had a fated mate. My parents were fated to each other, which is lucky, because they were already married when they became Werewolves. I can't imagine how it would have felt if they'd been fated to be with others.

It's been a long time, but I once met the sages of the Magic Realm. My parents had some old connections there, friends from before they turned. It was interesting to see a glimpse of the life my parents led before the Century Conflict. I wonder if I might have enjoyed being a Spellcaster, but I know that leading the Moonwood Collective is my calling.

The secret passages beneath the town were built back during the Century Conflict to hide powerful relics from the Vampires and to get around unnoticed. Today, they're also an easy way to get from one end of town to the other.

(60-100 Relationship Points)

When I found Jacob, he was practically a pup. I'd heard there was a feral werewolf in those woods, and I wanted to help. Turns out, there was also a Vampire there. Thankfully, I got to Jacob before either of them could. When I found the other wolf, he wasn't interested in coming back to Moonwood Mill with me. A pack didn't interest him. Some Werewolves like being the lone wolf.

I've certainly had some run-ins with Vampires. The closest was when I met Jacob. Because my parents knew about Vlad, I've always been able to avoid him pretty easily.

My father and mother fought in the Century Conflict alongside Greg - or Greggorius, as he was known. He's one of the oldest Werewolves alive that I'm aware of. Maybe the oldest. He must be so lonely, but he nearly ruined what my parents tried to build here. They'd invited a lot of non-werewolves to the area and were building a special community when Greg returned and... well, you can see what it's become.

My parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents were all talented spellcasters who fought during the Century Conflict. Me? I was born a werewolf — my parents were some of the original Mooncasters. I've always been proud of that fact.

My parents rejected immortality, and it was a difficult decision for me. I don't plan to be immortal forever. I just need to ensure someone else is ready to lead the pack before I go. The Moonwood Collective has an important past, and I know it'll have an important role to play in the future as well.

LILY ZHU

(0-35 Relationship Points)

Jacob has always made Kristopher so proud. He was in danger when Kristopher found him, you know?

It was very kind of Kristopher to take me in. I was lost for many, many years before coming to Moonwood Mill. He's been my family. As real a family as the one I lost...

When I was a child, I was very close with my cousins, Caleb and Lilith Vatore. Our mothers were sisters, and we spent most of our childhoods together. Lilith always had a dark side, but Caleb was a gentle soul.

I remember when my cousin, Lilith, first told me she'd met a fascinating man named Vlad. After that, she started spending a lot of time "training" with him. I thought she meant they were workout buddies. It wasn't until later that I found out she'd been lured to the dark arts.

The statue in the middle of Forgotten Hollow is supposed to depict a Straud ancestor. It's almost believable, because it looks so much friendlier than Vlad does... but I know the truth. It's been Vlad haunting that town all along.

They say Greg is as old as Vlad. I don't know as much about his past, but I believe that being around on his own for that long will taint anyone's senses.

(35-60 Relationship Points)

I wasn't in the Century Conflict between the Vampires and the Spellcasters. I'm not nearly that old. Not even Kristopher was around for that, but I believe his parents were.

Of all of the Werewolves here, I'm probably the one who's most familiar with Vampires, given my history. I'm sure Kristopher has heard plenty of stories from his parents, though.

After I was bitten by a Werewolf in the tunnels beneath Forgotten Hollow, I was lost for years. I spent so much of it as a beast, transformed and unable to remember much. Learning how to control my fury really turned my life around. For that, I'll always be grateful to Kristopher.

I was older by the time I met Kristopher and learned to control my powers. That's why I'm elderly and he isn't, despite him being my senior. I struggled to determine if I should pursue immortality or not. After thinking about it, the answer was clear. I have unfinished business with my cousins. Perhaps once that's settled, I can rest.

I heard about that fateful date Lou and Celene went on. What a silly man. Everyone knows Greg is dangerous. To provoke him was just fool-hardy. It must have been traumatizing for poor Celene. No wonder she took the remedy.

(60-100 Relationship Points)

We were young when my cousins Caleb and Lilith were turned into vampires. Lilith was turned by Vlad, and Caleb by Miss Hell. Vlad came for me as well, but I hid in the underground tunnels—which is how my own transformation, of a different nature, came about. I stayed there, half feral, and I tried to make it work with my cousins when they visited. After I discovered Moonwood Mill and my pack, I learned that they'd officially moved to Forgotten Hollow. It's upsetting.

When I ran into that rabid Werewolf in the tunnels beneath Forgotten Hollow, I remember saying to him, "My, what big ears you have!" and then, "My, what big teeth!" At first, it almost looked like my grandma, but I knew that couldn't be the case.

After I was turned into a Werewolf, things with my cousins, Lilith and Caleb, were never the same again. I'd already felt they were changing under Vlad's influence too quickly, but after my own transformation, there was something natural that pushed us apart. More than anything, I want to rekindle the relationship we had as children.

Not all Werewolves feel this way, but I don't enjoy the Full Moon. I spent too much of my life out of control. When the full moon rises, it reminds me of those times. Truthfully, I'd be cured if I could, but I'm not sure that I'd ever see Caleb or Lilith again if I did. I'm too old without my abilities to keep me alive.

I spent much of my youth feral in the tunnels beneath Forgotten Hollow where I was bitten by a Werewolf. After I arrived in Moonwood Mill, Kristopher told me that Forgotten Hollow was once under Werewolf control — back before Vlad moved in. He arrived with a mob and manipulated them into driving the Werewolves out. They, of course, didn't know he was a Vampire. They even put up a statue in his honor! Then, they all disappeared, one by one...

JACOB VOLKOV

(0-35 Relationship Points)

Lily's story is so sad. I can't imagine losing Rory or dad to someone like Vlad.

I really respect my dad. He's brought a lot of lost people together, and he's taught us how to live better, safer lives. I don't know who or what I'd be today if it wasn't for him. Hopefully I wouldn't be like Greg.

Yeah, I guess it is a little strange to be a vegetarian Werewolf. You don't find many of us. Oh well, it's who I am! Rory gets it. She'd always drool over the steaks when she was grilling, but then toss on a big mushroom for me.

Rory will always be special to me. Even if we're in different packs, she's my sister. We've always been close, ever since dad found me and took me in.

I don't think I ever want to leave Moonwood. I like the small town feel, the fact that everyone is really close-knit here, plus I've found my pack. If I did move anywhere though, I'd be interested in seeing Evergreen Harbor. That's where I'm from.

(35-60 Relationship Points)

A lot of people think I'll take over the Moonwood Collective as the Alpha some day. I hope that some day isn't too close. I could do it, but why would I when dad's still around? He's such a great leader.

Ever since I was little, dad has taught me to control my emotions. I'm grateful I haven't had to learn the hard way.

Dad has always taught me that non-were Sims are to be protected. I don't blame them for being afraid of us, given the history and the Vampire propaganda. I hope that some day they'll see us for who we really are as an occult though.

I know a lot of people are angry with Greg, or afraid of him, but I just feel sorry for the guy. I heard he had a fated mate that he lost. That has to be tough.

Dad says that when he found me, I was being hunted by a Vampire. Pretty scary stuff. I'm too young to remember a lot, but one thing I do remember is the smell. I can usually smell when one's nearby.

(60-100 Relationship Points)

I was born in Evergreen Harbor. I don't remember much because I was pretty young when I left. Dad says that maybe I forgot what happened for a reason. I remember that there was a fire... and that afterwards, I was lost in the woods for a long time.

I don't like to dwell on it, but I do have flashes of memories from when I was lost in the woods. I knew so little back then, so a loose Vampire and Werewolf was the stuff of nightmares. Sometimes, I wonder about the Werewolf that bit me. Did they just lose control? Were they scared? I'd like to meet them and let them know that I'm happy now.

I don't think I'd want to take a cure even if someone offered it to me. I'm part of a pack, and that means a lot to me. Don't take family for granted.

Throughout my childhood, dad was my pack leader. Sims always ask me if that was weird. He didn't treat me any differently than any other member. We all follow the pack values. I'm just like everybody else. At least, that's how I see myself.

I didn't grow up with someone my age around. Still, I've always thought the concept of fated mates was really romantic. Imagine, another Werewolf fated to be only with you.

WOLFGANG WILDER

(0-35 Relationship Points)

Oh, I love books. Histories are my favorite, though I've never felt quite talented enough to write one. No, I stick to my fiction, though I always write with the intention to teach.

I made it to the ocean once. I always thought it would be romantic to throw a message in a bottle into the sea, so I wrote one. Something sappy about looking up at the moon and wondering if I could change for the better. I wonder if anyone ever read it.

I met Kristopher when I came here to unwind. I was tired of the - pardon the pun - dog-eat-dog hustle of the city, and we became fast friends. He started talking to me about certain harmful stereotypes, how so many others see Werewolves — enough that I was intrigued.

I'm not the only person around here who grew up in San Myshuno, but I am the only person who came over within the last few decades. The city life wasn't for me. I wanted something more close-knit. A pack, if you will.

Here in Moonwood Mill, we make do with what we have around. Turning an old factory into a library, for example. We've got a lot of ingenuity.

(35-60 Relationship Points)

Greg is a living fixture of history, a reminder of darker times, and a warning for those who forget the value of control. He long ago gave into his rage and lost himself in it. It's a sad tale.

Kristopher believes that when you are in control of your emotions, you are the truest version of yourself. It allows you to act in a way that best represents your personal ideals and motives. It was this philosophy that piqued my interest in the Werewolf lifestyle. I would never had made the change if it wasn't for him.

If I could go back to how things were before I arrived, would I? No. I have a family now. They're my pack.

My favorite moon phase is the Waning Crescent. For Werewolves, it bestows the gift of logic. I find I can read books far faster than during any other moon phase. I can't think of a better way of spending the night!

Now that we're closer, I'll let you in on a secret: I am Vulfgang Mulder, the author. Not many know. I want to live the quiet life, and I don't want to draw attention to Moonwood Mill, so I keep my real identity secret.

(60-100 Relationship Points)

The Wildfangs are young. The pack hasn't been around nearly as long as the Moonwood Collective, nor is it as rooted in history. The Moonwood Collective goes back to the very first Werewolves. The Wildfangs should learn from history's valuable lessons — lest they go down a dangerous path.

Did you know that the very first Werewolves were Spellcasters? It's true. There were many ways Spellcasters attempted to fight back against the Vampires, and Werewolves were the most successful attempt. It's fascinating stuff if you can find ways to read up on it!

After losing the war, the Vampires launched "Operation High Fang" with the intent of using propaganda to turn general sentiment against Werewolves. My books do the opposite. They encourage readers to view Werewolves in a new, more favorable light - one that I feel is more authentic to who we are as an occult.

I find the entire, forgotten origins and the ongoing plight of the Werewolf fascinating. I wanted to be an advocate for them, to reorient their image in society, and so I asked Kristopher to change me. I couldn't write on something so intimate unless I truly experienced it myself.

Reading Werewolf-themed books is one of the best ways to learn the secrets of the Werewolves. You'll discover quite a lot, especially if you have the ability to read between the lines...

CELENE LÓPEZ

(0-35 Relationship Points)

I love WE'RE Living Magazine! I've been reading it since I was a teen. I figured out who its audience really was, and that kickstarted my journey to Moonwood Mill!

Why move to Moonwood Mill? I'm not sure if you can tell but I've been obsessed with Werewolves ever since I was a kid, and I figured out that there were Werewolves actually living here!

My favorite book genre is romance and my favorite books are always about Werewolves, so obviously, my two favorite books are "The Wolf Next Door" and "Packs and Prejudice." And between you and me... I've met the author!

When I was a kid I had ridiculously long hair. As a teen, I really went wild experimenting with it. I've had perms, highlights, lowlights... I got really good at dying hair. Sometimes I try and talk the Werewolves in town into letting me dye their fur. It's a very different texture, but I've become an expert at the art. Honestly, the hard part is getting them to stay still...

The Grimtooth Bar stocks a lot of meat. You can imagine why...

(35-60 Relationship Points)

It's not that I've always wanted to run a bar, per se. But opening the Grimtooth Bar felt like a great way for me to be part of this town, get close with the locals, and still keep some distance from the hairier nature of it all. After my run-in with Greg, it seemed like a good compromise.

Going on that midnight walk in the woods with Lou started off romantic, but when we saw Greg's warning signs I wanted to turn back. Of course, he just had to show off instead. It didn't turn out great for either one of us. I still don't like thinking about that night.

Take my advice, stay away from Greg. He isn't like the other Werewolves around here. He's dangerous. They put those signs up for a reason. The other Werewolves don't even like him.

Sometimes I wonder if I turned into a Werewolf if I'd have a fated mate... I certainly think it'd be romantic!

I don't know how Jacob is a Vegetarian and a Werewolf. It's an odd mixture.

(60-100 Relationship Points)

After I got bit, I contracted Werebies and I knew I didn't have long before I turned. Kristopher knew I wasn't ready and directed me towards a remedy. It wasn't too hard to concoct, and I now have some on hand at the bar at all times. I want to help others who find themselves in a similar state.

I know the remedy for Werebies, but I don't know the cure for lycanthropy. There's a difference. Kristopher taught me that Werebies is much easier to undo. I've heard hints that a cure is out there and it uses the rare Moonpetal flower plus other secret ingredients. I bet someone wrote it down in a book somewhere.

I consider becoming a Werewolf all the time. Cursed by magic, a creature of the night, a fated mate. It's all incredibly romantic! But then I think about Greg and how terrifying his lack of control was...

I feel mostly safe in Moonwood Mill, but the full moon can be an intense time. Most Werewolves around here seek to control their abilities in one way or another, but Kristopher told me that the moon is even more powerful than he is.

I wouldn't want to go back to my life before Moonwood Mill. It was too... normal. I've spent my entire life dreaming about Werewolves and the occult. To go back would be turning my back on a dream.

ANY WEREWOLF

(0-60 Relationship Points) or so it seems

There are two main ways to become a Werewolf... be born one or be turned into one through a bite. Some Sims receive the latter involuntarily, but you can always ask a Werewolf if you're close enough and they might agree. The first Werewolves came about through a magical explosion, but that ritual was lost generations ago—and I believe it required a lot of special circumstances.

The makeup of Werewolf blood in the child of two Werewolf parents can fluctuate. Sometimes a child's lunar connections are stronger than another werewolf child's. They'll be more naturally gifted as a Werewolf, but that doesn't mean others can't attain the same level of skill. Other times, a child's werewolf affinity might be seem to be missing entirely.

You think toddlers are difficult? Have you ever met a Werewolf toddler? Their poor toys! They always develop motor skills quickly, but it can be a challenge to potty train them.

Werewolves are physical creatures — even our young. A Werewolf toddler may not have a beast form, but they always excel when learning new motor skills.

Werewolves don't have their first transformation until their teenage years. It's an exciting but painful experience.

They say there might be a cure, but if there is... I imagine it will be difficult to create. You'd probably need to do some investigation to learn the right combination of ingredients.

If you get bitten by a Werewolf, you can always acquire the remedy and stop the infection before you turn. They sell it over at the bar. It happens more than you'd think.

A lot of recipes for helpful Werewolf concoctions use Moonpetal in them and the only place to harvest it is on top of the tall rock. Though it won't really help to clamber up there unless there's a full moon in the sky.

It's always funny to watch a non-Werewolf Sim eat raw meat. Delicious if you're a Werewolf. Otherwise...

It can be pretty scary for a non-were Sim to see a Werewolf transform. It can really affect our relationship with them.

Your personality as a Sim affects your temperament as a Werewolf. We're like anyone else... just a little more extreme. That's not always a bad thing!

Not every Werewolf is cut out to be an Alpha. You have to be a good representative of your pack's values. And you have to be able to challenge the current Alpha—which is never an easy feat. Rank won't matter at that point, just your ability to win the challenge.

Alphas who don't properly adhere to their pack's values are more likely to be challenged for the position. And if you're not the Alpha, if you don't follow the pack's values, you're more likely to be demoted!

A werewolf never forgets a first kiss under the full moon. It's a singularly magical and romantic moment.

Not all Werewolves have a fated mate, but having one can be a powerful thing. You'll discover the connection when you really get to know someone, or when there's a bit of romance between the two of you. That doesn't mean you have to end up together, however. Who doesn't want to defy fate from time to time?

Once you find your fated mate, you're fated forever, and you'll only have the one. To embrace or deny fate is a rather impactful decision.

I feel like I grow as a Werewolf during the Full Moon. Everything I do makes me a better Werewolf for some reason.

All Werewolves gain some special abilities that they normally wouldn't have during the Full Moon.

Every Werewolf knows that their fury builds faster during a Full Moon. Some Werewolves have learned to control that, but it isn't an easy ability to master.

Fury for a Werewolf feels different depending on how much it's built up... it's always there in the back of your mind, but sometimes it can become the only thing you can think about.

PowerSip MIDNIGHT is a great way to build your fury if you're wanting to transform.

Moonbathing during the Full Moon is a unique experience for us Werewolves.

Anyone can moonbathe, but the effects are particularly potent for those who have the magical moon curse in their veins.

The lunar phases affect Werewolves differently. Sometimes these effects are good and sometimes they're a little hard to deal with. Some werewolves have even managed to develop a resistance to lunar magic. Those lucky dogs!

During the First and Third Quarter Moon phases, I feel like my relationships always really improve or go downhill much more quickly. I've only noticed that happening for Werewolves, though. I wonder if there's something to it?

As a werewolf, I don't always want to sleep at night, but if I manage to get some sleep during a New Moon, I come out feeling so well rested. It's really nice.

I always feel the most handy during the Waning Gibbous moon. Come to think of it, most Werewolves are particularly handy during that phase. Huh.

I'm not sure why, but as a Werewolf, I always feel much more logical during the Waning Crescent Moon. Plus, I can get through books so much faster.

As a Werewolf, the Waxing Gibbous Moon phase is always interesting. You can inherently tell the full moon is coming, and that surge makes it so that you're a much better fighter. I love sparring during the Waxing Gibbous.

The best time to work out for a Werewolf is during the Waxing Crescent Moon. I'm not sure why, but that's always when I get my best workouts.

The tunnels under Moonwood are difficult to navigate in the dark. Then again, there are more than a few residents here that can see better in the dark than most...

The original Werewolves were Spellcasters, known as Mooncasters. After the first transformation, they lost their ability to cast anything. All of that magical affinity was directed internally, and that's how it remains to this day.

Howling is the moon's song. Dogs know this. In fact, the first spellcasters learned this magic from their canine familiars.

A long time ago, before there were Werewolves, a group of Spellcasters frequented this area. They liked to use the howling point at night to call upon powerful untamed moon magic.

The moon doesn't just affect Werewolves. During a full moon, Mermaids can stay out of the water longer, Vampires gain power slower, and Spellcasters are more successful with their spells.

Between Spellcasters, Werewolves, and Vampires, Spellcasters are the eldest group. Vampires and Werewolves originated from them.

I always love how the night sky seems brighter during the full moon. It's romantic, really.

If you moongaze before heading to bed, they say the moon will grant you a special dream.

Does anyone really know what the moon is made of? It could be cheese! Why are we discounting cheese?

You can't see as far into space with a small telescope. To really see the galaxy, you'll need a larger one. Some of the best Moon Prints come from the big, fancy telescopes.

I'm not sure how the lunar statue in Moonwood Mill stays in sync with the moon. Maybe it's magic, or maybe someone is much more mechanically savvy than I am!

They say that during a New, First Quarter, Full, or Third Quarter Moon you'll become better at fishing. Fishing is such a superstitious hobby!

Catching a Luna Fish is rare. If you do, however, there are some great benefits from grilling it up and eating it. You'll gain moon-infused natural energy, and you'll increase your athletic prowess tenfold.

Locals know the tunnels beneath Moonwood Mill as "the Underground." It's been called that for as long as anyone can remember.

Strange things happen in Moonwood Mill during a full moon. It's one of the best times to explore. It's also somewhat dangerous to be out and about.

It's always the darkest out during the New Moon. I can't count how many times in the past I've stubbed my toe on something in the dark.

The locals say Moonpetal is a magical flower that first bloomed from a surge of moon magic. Whether that's true or not, it does only bloom during the Full Moon. If you want to harvest it, you better find it now.

The rare Luna Fish is only found in Lake Lunvik. I hear it's even more active during a full moon. If you want to catch it, you'd better fish now!

Greg is dangerous, but he's particularly dangerous during a full moon. I'd stay away tonight if I were you.
