And this is what you want? You want to be a werewolf? You think it's glamorous? How
many of those myths have the werewolf going insane and killing and killing until they
are killed by the "normal" population? How many vampires do the humans hunt down
once they are discovered?
How about this? Remember back in the 1968 when that teacher divided the class into the
brown eyed students and the blue eyed students, and told the blue eyed students they
were worthless, to prove that Racism is taught? (Reference)
Those kids were vicious to each other, mean, cruel, hateful and that kind of behavior
would NEVER be tolerated in most schools now, but it still goes on now, with bullies
and hatred. And you want this to happen to you? Are you out of your mind?
"Oh," I hear you say, "that won't happen to ME!" So why in the name of all that is holy
are you going around bragging about being one? Going onto lists and saying "I'm a
Toreador and a Vampire! Boy White Wolf Games got my clan right on!" Do you have to
be SO SUPER special that you can't just be a Wiccan/Pagan? That's not enough for you?
You have to be some sort of elite group within Wicca to make yourself feel special?
Let me clue you in for a moment: Even when you identify yourself as a
Witch/Druid/Vampire who can go out in the Sunlight and not die, you still won't feel
special. You'll still have to look around and find more things to identify with to make
yourself feel good. All you will find is that most people will want to be FAR away from
you, and those that DO want to be around you will only want to be there to feed your
delusion that you are a vampire.
There is nothing wrong with taking a piece of truth you find in a game or in a myth and
adding that to your spirituality. There are many who think Loki is Chaotic Neutral, and
that use the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons (tm) alignment scale to rate people. Does
that mean they thing that Paladins exist here and now, and that the planes are labeled as
AD&D says they are? Probably not. It's that the symbol of the alignment made sense to
them, and they use it to represent how this person strikes them in a soul state. It's an
attempt to quantify with words something that is beyond description, nothing more.
So, if you are a fan of White Wolf, more power to you, you will find a lot of people who
will be more than willing to talk to you endlessly about the games they had in the past.
They will talk to you about how the energies of the Moon feel different during a Waxing
Gibbous Moon than they do during the New Blood Moon. But when you call yourself a
Wererider, expect to become persona non-gratta fairly fast. Wake up and smell reality.
Or as I heard in one game when someone was getting too into their character "Get real,
this is fantasy!"
6) "I am a Priest(ess) of the God(dess)! I know everything!!!"
This is one of those statements that make people cringe, the real practitioners that is. Just
because you have done some reading does not mean you know everything. It does not
even mean that you know everything on a given subject; there is always more to learn.
Let's take ONE area that the fluffies love to say they know everything on, the Runes.
First question: Which Runes? Elder Futhark? Younger Futhark? Anglo-Saxon?
