Pausanias, author of “Description of Greece”, an important collection of Greek myths, even strongly rebuked the idea of “werewolf” (though he didn’t use the word) when it came to the myth of Lykaon. You don’t become a separate supernatural being that potentially retains some human qualities.

Greek gods don’t do take backsies generally if they turn you into an animal you become just an animal. There is no difference between Lycaon and someone like Ariadne who was turned into a spider by Athena, or his own daughter Kallisto who was turned into a bear. Greek myths don’t have an established lore on werewolves, and while Lycaon might have given his namesake to modern werewolf lore, he wasn’t a werewolf himself. I don’t know about including Lycaon though. And for a being a game pack rather than an expansion pack, I think it looks pretty cool ☺️ In order to have a tail, they would have to grow a whole new bone during the transformation process.Īlso fun fact from the article: In Germany they believe you can save yourself from a werewolf by saying its name 3 times.Īnyway, it's 2022 and I'm excited to wholeheartedly enjoy something, even if it's not perfect.Werewolves are humans that transform into a wolf-like creature.To summarise the main reason (edit: that the article provides) why werewolves do not have tails: This is an interesting article called Do Werewolves Have Tails - and Other Werewolf Facts that goes into the theory and the history of werewolves. I’m not a werewolf expert at all (and was never really interested before), but after some research I discovered that historically werewolves do not have tails and that it also varies by culture. Throughout all the posts about the new game pack (across all Sims subreddits) there’s been a lot of talk (and complaints) about the werewolves not having tails.
