Let's say I'd be a shapeshifter, what use would it be?
I mean, what beneficial results could it bring me if we'd say I actually had a wolf inside of me ?
When does one use his powers or his increased strength?
Could it be like for example : I've just got home from the monthly food-shopping and I draw use of my special werewolf powers to be able to carry that extra bag to my apartment, saving me the trouble in having to get back to the car later to fetch that one bag that I normally couldn't lift?
Or could it be like after a bar, and someone tries to pick a fight, and I beat that guy up, then he comes back with some of his friends, which makes my odds in winning allot worse. That I draw my special werewolf powers, go berzerk, beat four of them into pulps, while roaring and scaring the other ones off?
Or can I just use my special werewolf powers to grow fangs and open up a can of beans?
I mean not to critisize, but I'm just curious about when one actually would find any practical use of being a werewolf?

I implore you to think again before you judge me.
My cynicism grants me a rather down-to-earth thinking in all situations, thanks to that, I see only things that are, reality, things that exists, things that makes sense.
Scorn?

Curiosity is anything but scorning.
If there was no curiosity, there'd be no discussion.
I'm just asking when and in what situations that being a therian could have any use for the person of the matter.

Nothing exists without a purpose.
If nothing exists without a purpose, then all things have a purpose.
Likewise, all purposes fills a function, and all functions have uses.
Now, wether it's a personal trait or if one can actually grow fangs or draw superstrength (which was what I was asking), anything that is in existence is continously striving to exist.
That is called Survival.

It could be a virus, an idea, a special breed of monkies on the brink of extinction, but extinction or not, everything that exists will still fill their purpose and they will still strive to exist.
Conclusion: Everything that exists fills a purpose and strives to exist.
What is survival, if anything but personal gain or practical use?
That's it, because if you break it down, that is exactly what it is: Personal benefit, practical use - That's fact.
Truely, someone who feel they are therians, knows that there are in fact good uses for their traits.

Correct me if I'm wrong because I have no intention in not getting along with nobody. But you just told me that I was rude for being curious, and in adition, you told me that being a Therian means having a personality trait that is filling no function at all, what so ever.
I tend to talk about things untill they make sense. I doubt your words completely, you don't make sense. How's that for an answer as to what benefits my cynicism is bringing me?
Don't go thinking you'll understand me fully, that'll only embrace the sides of my personality, wether you like them or not.

And maybe you oughta ask yourself, who is scorning, Ladygriffin?


FORUM: :cry:
Sorry if I got misunderstood, just my way of words playing tricks on me..
Anyway, if anyone has something to share with me, or someone else who is curious about the road that therians are walking, please do tell me.
I'm personally interrested in what effects - and in what scenarios that theese traits and strengths may possibly come well in hand.

If you are a therian, then you have some special powers, you can see at night, you are stronger, more endurant, than normal, you can stay in water for hours or go unnoticed through checkpoints.  There are many different skills ....

TheRedTailedHero:
I'm trying to figure out what I am and people suggested possibly therian. Ive made a forum about my situation but I see hawks everywhere and they follow me and watch me and multiple times we have locked eyes and I feel like I understand...something. About 8 months ago I suffered a massive migraine that almost made me pass out but I heard the sound of screeching bird and ever since then all this has been happening to, I feel like I have something deep inside of me that I have and just don't know what it is, like its supressed. Also I have a natural muscular build, very pain resistant, a few other natural physical abilities and I can effect the winds.

I don't mean to be annoying or noobish or anything but after reading the first page it kinda sounds similar to therian, anyone think so? I'm just trying to find some answers is all.
