Wolf-Blood:

(Wolf-Kin) One of your ancestors (possibly even a parent) was one of the Changing Folk: a lycanthrope—a werewolf. You haven't shown any signs of being a shape-changer, but one of your descendants just might. You—or your children or grand children—may become a were-creature. It is possible that you were brought up in a Company of Changing Folk but haven't manifested any 'change', but more likely this is a distant ancestry that you may not even know about. A wolfblooded individual who is infected with lycanthropy may potentially manifest the breed of their ancestor rather than that of the infecting Changing Folk (player's choice, as is which breed was said ancestor). Once a wolfblooded person escapes from the Madness of lycanthropy—if ever—they then gain all the benefits of a naturally born Changing Folk. Possessing this background isn't cause for concern, but shapeshifting is. People panic and will act quickly to put you down.
