Name
Eric - From the Old Norse name Eiríkr, derived from the elements ei "ever, always" and ríkr "ruler". A notable bearer was Eiríkr inn Rauda (Eric the Red in English), a 10th-century navigator and explorer who discovered Greenland. This was also the name of several early kings of Sweden, Denmark and Norway. This common Norse name was first brought to England by Danish settlers during the Anglo-Saxon period. It was not popular in England in the Middle Ages, but it was revived in the 19th century, in part due to the children's novel 'Eric, or Little by Little' (1858) by Frederic William Farrar.

Powers and Abilities

 * Shape-shifting - Werewolves are able to shape-shift from their human forms, to a half human, half-wolf beast form at will. It is implied that werewolves are able to transform into "real" wolves as well.
 * Animalistic Speed - Werewolves are very fast and move with animal-like quickness and speed in both their human and wolf forms.
 * Super Strength - Werewolves are possess incredible superhuman strength; they can easily tear human and animals to pieces.
 * Alpha Voice - The voice of an Alpha Werewolf has the ability to force the transformation of other werewolves against their will.
 * Full Control - The descendants of the Original/Pure Blood Werewolf Bloodline can stop the conversion or transformation at will. They can activate it without the need of the full moon.

Weaknesses

 * Decapitation - The act of dismembering or removing the head of a werewolf will result in instant death.
 * Fire - Fire can and will most likely kill a werewolf if the flames are not doused quickly.
 * Heart Extraction - The act of removing a werewolf's heart will result in instant death.
 * Silver -  If a werewolf or a Original/Pure Blood is wounded by silver, it will cause the werewolf to become weakened. However, if a silver knife or bullet penetrates a werewolf's heart, it will result in instant death. It is currently unknown if it can kill someone of Pure Blood.
