Poll: Werewolf or Vampire?

[ccggenius12]

I feel like the original post needed to define which variety's were being discussed, the categories are to broad. If you just want us to choose... vampires are ridiculously overpowered. However, I'd be a werewolf because that's the only way a short white guy like me is ever going to be able to dunk, and from the free throw line no less.

werewolf
even before twilight ruined vampires, werewolf

To be honest i'd reather be the guy hunting them... but if I had to choose it would be Vampire! At least then I would be in my own mind in those periods... Don't forget in most warewolf incidents in pop culture, the human doesn't remember any of the situation where they are transformed, or they couldn't control themselves... and as a warewolf you only have your power 4-5 days a month.. (hmmm... losing control of emotion... getting angry... rampaging... happens once for a few days in a 28day cycle... remind you of anything?)

Depends on what particular mythos you are talking about. There are certain werewolf types that totally rock where you have a mildly inconvenient transformation into a wolf that you can even control. Others have it as a completely uncontrollable shift into a bloodthirsty monster with no control over your actions and, if you're lucky, no memory of the events. Vampires have a similar mythos problem.

Though all taken I would rather be a werewolf, I would just find a safe way to keep myself out of human contact at night. I couldn't bear being unable to walk out in the sun.

Vampire. I'll take any excuse to wear long black trench coat or cape and talk with fake-y russian accent.

 

[Evil Smurf]

Vampires are a metaphore for sex, so vampire

 

[renegade7]

I liked in Morrowind when you could be both.....soooo many buffs...

Vampire is nice for a stealth boost but you have to starve yourself for three days to get any good buffs...and if you accidentally let the fourth day go by and become a starved vampire say goodbye to every being allowed anywhere ever again.

Werewolf is cool because you can actually control it.

 

[darksakul]

Purely based of what the last magic the Gathering Deck I built...

I say Werewolves

 

[Atmos Duality]

Neither.
I choose...dragon.

Since I'm not fond of either getting murdered by the sun, or turning into a furry.

 

[Ashadow700]

Werewolf. Never bieng able to be out in the sun feels like a very unpleasant thought. I also would be able to live a fairly normal life as werewolf; all I would have to do is chain myself to rock in the forest once a month.

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

The only problem is that people nowadays seem to have no idea of the difference between werewolves and lycanthropes.

Fucking hell people are stupid, right? Please don't be that guy, it's an insignificant difference that isn't exactly cemented in language.

OT: Vampire fo' sho'. Vampires are pretty awesome when they're charming, suave and smooth with nobody knowing what you really are; I'd love to be that. Sure, going outside in the sun might be a bummer and not being able to enter anyone's house without them saying you can might land you in a couple awkward situations and who cares about garlic when you have an insatiable thirst for human blood. I could make it work.

 

[Alssadar]

I would say Vampires. For the mythology behind them is very...cultured, in comparison to the brutish ferocity of the werewolf. I do like having control of body and not have to maintain lunar knowledge. Defy gravity and certain mind-reading powers? Heck yes. Also, the lust for blood would be (Although annoying) interesting, as the murder of people would have to be planned and traced for execution, while werewolves charge without rhyme or reason to guide them.
I do like going outside, however... and the summer would be annoying with drum line and such...
I can deal.

(I can't find a good enough Innistrad Card to represent)

 

[Riff Moonraker]

Werewolf, hands down. However, there I would have to be able to control it. I wouldnt want to go completely feral when I changed... I would have to retain my senses.

 

[Riff Moonraker]

Vampires are a metaphore for sex, so vampire

Bah, I say! Vampires cant hold a candle to the pure animal magnetism of a werewolf!

 

[natster43]

Tough one let me think.

Vampire: Super strength and Speed, only nourishment needed is blood, can turn into bats(?), hates garlic, wooden stakes and holy symbols=mortal enemy, and no sunlight.

Werewolf: Loses control on a full moon, weak to silver and... Do werewolves get any pluses when humans? Like super agility or anything?

I guess from what I know, Vampire has more pros, but I like the sun so probably werewolf.

 

[Random Fella]

Werewolves definitely
I would have said werewolf before twilight anyway, but after it my point is just even more backed up
Werewolves are just awesome

 

[Gottesstrafe]

Probably a werewolf given the fact that I retain much more freedom of movement than I would as a vampire (i.e. can't cross running water, can't be in direct sunlight, can't enter homes without permission, the sight of crosses hurt me, etc). If I can retain some of their strength, speed, and agility in my human form, all the better then. That is, unless I could become a Dhampir or a Daywalker, in which case I'd go with vampire.

Vampire. I'll take any excuse to wear long black trench coat or cape and talk with fake-y russian accent.

You can already do that, you'd just be barred from entering schools.

 

[Slowpool]

NWoD Gangrel vampires. Best of both worlds.

 

[Loki J]

I started thinking about werewolves and vampires and was thinking about which I would rather be. I chose werewolf because the are awesome and you might be able to scrape away a somewhat normal life. Plus I am a FUCKING wolf. I get to rip things apart with my bare hands, and no not the pussy twilight kind of either. I am talking one from horror movies not elder scrolls or twilight.

Can I pick Aesir or Vanir instead?

Vampire. Immortality, enhanced strength and senses... daylight is the only problem, but I could live with that.
