"The influence of the dark wolf side can alter the victim's moral compass?". Too much speculation. Veruca's embrace of her werewolf side, and MacManus merely giving up and returning to populated areas can't be blamed on the wolf, this isn't possession. Its a choice they make based on their personalities.--Gonzalo84 22:21, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

Your right this is too much speculation. I do think that the fact these people are werewolves actually begins to affect their human personalities, e.g. I don't think Oz would have been so attracted to Veruca, and wouldn't have kissed Veruca had he not been a werewolf. However this is all pretty much my own opinion/speculation, so out of place on wikiP..
From "Wild at Hearts":
OZ: "Veruca was right about something. The wolf is inside me all the time. And I don't know where the line is anymore - between me and it. Until I figure out what that means, I shouldn't be around you - or anybody."
Even Oz, who is an extremely calm and collected human being admits that the wolf has impacted his human persona. I'm off for my extended wikibreak. Keep up the good work Gonzalo. -- Paxomen 23:06, 10 April 2006 (UTC)

Can somebody clear something up for me please? I was going to put this in the article under the trivia section as another continuity error, but then I realised someone may be able to explain it away. Is it established whether or not werewolves change back into human form once they've died or not? In Phases it establishes they don't (Cain carries werewolf pelts and teeth) and in Unleashed it establishes they do (they keep Nina alive to eat her werewolf meat). Can anybody help or should this be added as a mistake?Jayunderscorezero 15:48, 3 August 2006 (UTC) Well, I'm adding it for now, but feel free to correct me if you feel you must.Jayunderscorezero 15:50, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Unless Cain took the teeth and pelts after he had shot/captured the werewolves but before their moments of death -- Paxomen 19:48, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
Hmm, yeah, I'd thought about that too. I don't have the episode to hand at the moment so I can't really comment. Again, I still think that this is a valid continuity error but feel free to correct if there is evidence otherwise.Jayunderscorezero 09:29, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
Yeah your right, I too thinks it's an error on the part of the writers. But I have another Fanwank explanation :) - it's cos Nina was a different species of werewolf than the ones that were seen on Buffy -- Paxomen 13:26, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
