"Well," Tommy muttered to himself as he regained his balance, "that could have gone better. Probably past time that I invested a few more points in my Diplomacy skill." A new growl attracted his attention, and something unreadable crossed his face as the Werewolf's last victim began to transform. "Expletive. Well, that certainly answers most of my questions. This is ungood. Plus ungood even, possibly double plus ungood."
In a matter of a few seconds, the woman completed her transformation into a Werewolf, craned her neck and gave a long shrill howl before she turned her attention to The Gamer. But this creature did not charge Tommy, it merely approached him cautiously and sniffed the air just as it stopped short of The Gamer.
Perplexed, Tommy cautiously watched her approach. "It is nice, I guess," he thought wryly, "to meet someone and not be *immediately* threatened or attacked. That hardly ever happened before I came to the Realm."
Standing not more than two feet from Tommy, the newly transformed Werewolf bowed its head, showed its throat to the Gamer and began to back away from him. Catching another scent upon the air, the Werewolf turned away from Tommy and charged down the street disappearing around a corner.
"That was… odd." Tommy shook his head. "Definitely submissive behaviour, and I'm not usually considered an Alpha. Except by animals, now that I think of it. I suppose it would translate to Werewolves, particularly if, for whatever reason, I am one now. And that still doesn't make any sense. I don't even recall any circumstances where I might have been exposed… but time enough for speculation later. I hope." He looked up and down the street, taking in all the signs of chaos. "Right, time to regroup, I think." Decision made, he turned and started jogging back to the inn. "Now if I can just remember where I left my quarterstaff…"
