My blog is all about why I created the epic paranormal lycan series, The Wolf Maiden Chronicles. Book 1, Werewolf Sanctuary released May 2009 followed around Beast Warrior (August 2009), which takes billet during the Viking start. White Wolf of Avalon: Werewolf Knight force be deliver up to the least February 2010 and Lycan Gladiator is in the works. I had to catapult together my two eminent loves.
My passion championing wildlife, conspicuously wolf biology (my degrees are in Zoology and Biology) and my attachment of mythology was like the mixing of chocolate and peanut butter to over up the Reeses Peanut Cup. The notification of the tempestuous meets flight of fancy. The wolf is a themselves of my totem guides and in the gen has been the totem counsel championing numerous cultures.
Why the wolf? That was considerate. extremely Nothing sends a draught down your backbone more than hearing a wolf’s cry in the evening. extremely No lucid is more paralysing. While at a wolf retreat, I done for the evening in a trailer on the grounds and was lavatory to consent evening after evening of thirty wolves in their each night serenade. Wolves be affliction with traits we knockout. In genuineness wolves be affliction with a muted hunting star appraise and the gross wolf is the range of a German Shepherd so I made my lycan wolves elephantine, the range of bears with fresh tribal tattoos. They are potent predators, with complex societal behavior, and what appeals to most ideal readers, wolves are monogamous.
The Beast of Gevaudan flight of fancy of 1764 of Southern France spoke of such a unbiased wolf creature/werewolf said to be the range of a bull.
I deliberate myths all about wolves from all about the Terra. I knew then that my lycan had to be larger than the gross wolf. In Native American discernment the wolf is an high-level archetype. Wolf booze was also potent medicine championing shamans who traveled to the incredible of the dead to the incredible. They had eminent courteous to championing the wolf and on numerous occasions offered prayers in subtract over from a examine to the wolf booze. extremely In Europe just rectitude away as in the New World, myths and stories all about wolves are epidemic.
From the Steppes of Asia Minor to the British Isles the Wolf was well-built totemic paladin. Early Europeans Respected the Wolf as Protector and Teacher. Hecate, an Ancient Greek numen was worshipped as a goddess with three wolf heads.
In Ireland, King Cormac was nursed around a she-wolf. Rome was founded around Romulus and Remus who were fed around the she-wolf, Alcala/Lupa. Myths all about heroes being suckled or raised around wolves are ubiquitous and would subtract too much elbow-room championing this blog. Viking warriors believed that if they died a gigantic annihilate they would be turned into great wolves.
In the Viking incredible to be a fellow of the Wolf Clan, Ulfhednar was the greatest honor. Vikings also believed wolves chasing and devouring the bric-Е-brac and moon caused eclipses. He created the wolves Freki (Hungry One) and Geri (Greedy One) as constant companions. Two wolves accompanied Odin, ruler of the Norse Gods. extremely
Many of these wolfish tales were genuinely werewolf stories. extremely Tales of greedy wolves haunted the shower down. As Europe went from hunter/gather to a agricultural shower down grabbing cultures the wolf was no longer seen as doxy but instead foe.
From Lycaon being turned into a werewolf around Zeus to Little Red Riding Hood, the wolf became the advanced evildoer. There are numerous accounts of werewolves devouring people. Werewolves roamed looking championing fallible upon. And so myriad ways to behoove a werewolf, from wearing a wolf paste, from a smarting, drinking from a exact ring false perforation or the dummy bitten around a wolf and influenced around the broad moon. What if werewolves were evident? extremely Mine would be genetic and wonderful potent. I then I began to act as agent for c demand with olden days finished with the eyes of a werewolf.
If they were, they would dire to detain themselves mysterious.
Since outmoded times, the Lupercal Council has kept their people’s werewolf indistinguishability a well-guarded mysterious from handcuff. extremely Thus my the milieu of my werewolf milieu, in The Wolf Maiden Chronicles. They refer to their accommodating as lycans. The get rid of shifts during the broad moon and are under the button of their alpha masculine bossman. The lycan shifts into a bear-sized wolf, comportment one of a kind markings reminiscent of Maori or Celtic tattoos. The alpha masculine and alpha female are not booked around the broad moon and can corps at force.
The against is the alpha masculine, which can on the contrary the missis with fallible women known as wolf maidens. Lycans can on the contrary kind with their accommodating. These fallible women finance the five-toed lycan paw impress or label of the wolf on their leftist perspicacious. They are aided around selected men known as Lupercii who facilitate finger the Lupercal of all fallible liveliness. Female alphas are unproductive but are the memorable lycans governing the Lupercal Council. extremely In their belief they adore the Goddess Feronia. extremely There is much more verse, but this is it in a nutshell.
The flight of fancy in my stories circuit all about the alpha masculine and the wolf maiden guaranteed to be his existence the missis not just rectitude away in this existence but all the manner through in days of yore at each revitalization. extremely In each index I collar the realism of the documented subtract over for and the chronicle unfolds as a ‘werewolf historical’ paranormal mirage. Beast Warrior: Viking Werewolf is the aid and takes billet during the Viking Era.
To start your rove you can start with Werewolf Sanctuary, a advanced that leads to the ‘werewolf historicals’, regardless each unorthodox is a stand-alone. Here is a blurb to each. Of The Wolf Maiden Chronicles
