Contrary to popular belief, The Wolf Man is neither a man nor a wolf, but actually a legendary animal skin from the Troad (northern Turkey) which allows its wearer to transform himself (or herself, as Wolf Man users are almost as often female as they are wolves) into the semblance of almost any four-legged lupine beast. The only drawback is that such transformation makes you very hungry, and it is hard to swim without your fur becoming wet.
