**SHIFTER NOTES:** - Any fighting skills and accelerated shifting abilities are Taught or learned. When one shifts for the first time, they don't just magically know how to fight or shift quickly. Even Enhanced abilities can overwhelm the shifter, so learning to use them and adapt to them takes time.
- No Lunar Empowerment Because they are not affected by the moon, they would be less powerful than Werewolves during a full moon.
Adaptability (environmental) User is able to survive and adapt to any environment and/or condition, being able to tolerate wide range of temperatures and levels of moisture, any amount/quality of sustenance, breathable medium, etc. with little or no discomfort.
Enhanced Emotions They experience emotions more powerfully than humans and Vampires. Particularly emotions are more enhanced than others. ie anger, rage and aggression. Were-wolves are more prone to violence and rage than vampires. However, emotions such as love, joy, and happiness are intensified for them as well, allowing them to live life more intensely. This ability allows them to feel emotions at their peak regardless of their age.
Enhanced Healing Practically invincible to anything but fatal wounds that can seriously impair their healing capabilities like decapitation or heart-extraction. They can heal much faster than humans, but not as fast as Were's. Though wounds will much heal quicker when they shift from human to animal and back again. They can't just shift back and forth without consequence. It will cause them to use energy and strength. They will sleep hard if they do it too often and too quickly. Either way they will have to sleep more the more serious the wounds are.
Enhanced Mauling Shifters possess enhanced skills to rip their enemies to shreds with just pure force alone or just a powerful strike.
Enhanced Senses They have extremely keen senses of hearing, sight, touch, and smell that exceed those of vampires though not as enhanced as hybrids.
Enhanced Speed He/she has amazing speed and reflexes. They can use this ability in human or werewolf form. As with strength, were-wolves get faster with age. The full moon will increases their speed and being in wolf-form will make them even faster.
Enhanced Strength Strength that far exceeds that of a mortal. This increases with age.
Enhanced Toughness / Agility Shifter possess a higher level of superhuman agility. They can move, jump higher, climb, and run incredibly fast without difficulty or exhaustion.
Infection A Shifter must bite someone with the intention of infecting them. In Shifters it is not done accidentally.
Shapeshifting - Can shift whenever the shifter desires. Has full memory of the shift and what happens when she is in her animal form. To some degree she can control her wolf when in that form, but it's not easy. And it's something she must learn to do over time. - Fast shift to Human/Animal: Can learn to shift Quickly from one form to the other. This happens over time as the shifter ages and grows. - Fight or Flight, Anger or other emotions that can overwhelm can cause the person shift if they have not learned control.
Telepathy The power to receive and/or transmit information mentally or through other non-sensory means. Does not need to be part of a pack to do this with another. Though control of this ability must be learned.
Decelerated Aging - Shifters age slower than Humans do, at the same rate as Weres.
