Werewolf

WEREWOLF

A werewolf or werwolf, also known as a lycanthrope is a mythological human with the ability to shapeshift into a wolf or an anthropomorphic wolf creature, either purposely, by being bitten or scratched by another werewolf, or after being placed under a curse. This transformation is often associated with the appearance of the full moon and it is vulnerable to silver bullets.

Werewolves are often attributed super-human strength and senses, far beyond those of both wolves or men. The werewolf is generally held as a European character, although its lore spread through the world in later times. Shape shifters, similar to werewolves, are common in tales from all over the world.

The term lycanthropy, a synonym of werewolf, comes from Ancient Greek lykánthropos. That can transform into animal. The term therianthrope literally means "beast-man. The word has also been linked to the original werewolf of classical mythology, Lycaon, a king of Arcadia who, according to Ovid's Metamorphoses, was turned into a ravenous wolf in retribution for attempting to serve his own son to visiting Zeus in an attempt to disprove the god's divinity.

There is also a mental illness called lycanthropy in which a patient believes he or she is, or has transformed into, an animal and behaves accordingly. This is sometimes referred to as clinical lycanthropy to distinguish it from its use in legends. Despite its origin as a term for man-wolf transformations, lycanthropy is used in this sense for animals of any type.

Many believed said that were wolf had curved fingernails, low set ears and a swinging stride. He likes to kill all of creature that has flesh. They can become a werewolf because he infected by another werewolf or infected a curse. Werewolf is vulnerable to silver weapons and highly resistant to other attacks.

Titan

TITAN

This is about Titan in mythology.

In Greek mythology, the Titans were a race of powerful deities, descendants of Gaia and Uranus, that ruled during the legendary Golden Age.

In the first generation, there were twelve Titans. The males were Oceanus, Hyperion, Coeus, Cronus, Crius and Iapetus and the females were Mnemosyne, Tethys, Theia, Phoebe, Rhea and Themis. The second generation of Titans consisted of Hyperion's children Eos, Helios, and Selene; Coeus's daughters Leto and Asteria; Iapetus's sons Atlas, Prometheus, Epimetheus, and Menoetius; and Crius's sons Astraeus, Pallas, and Perses.

Their role as Elder Gods was overthrown by a race of younger gods, the Olympians, in the Titanomachy ("Battle with the Titans") which effected a mythological paradigm shift that the Greeks may have borrowed from the Ancient Near East.

Another myth concerning the Titans that is not in Hesiod revolves around Dionysus. At some point in his reign, Zeus decides to give up the throne in favor of the infant Dionysus, who like the infant Zeus is guarded by the Kouretes and its guise. The Titans decide to slay the child and claim the throne for themselves apathetically; they paint their faces white with gypsum, distract Dionysus with toys, then dismember him and boil and roast his limbs. Zeus, enraged, slays the Titans with his thunderbolt; Athena preserves the heart in a gypsum doll, out of which a new Dionysus is made.
