Weretiger

Weretigers were lycanthropes with a tiger animal form.

Description
Weretigers in humanoid form tended to be sleekly muscular, taller than average, and very agile. In this form their voices were said to be husky with a tendency to roll their r's. They didn't often wear clothes beyond jewelry due to the fact that even in "human" form they were covered in tiger-like fur.

In hybrid form their ears, nose, and teeth became more tiger-like - though the eyes and overall shape of the head was still humanoid. Their legs became more feline, forcing them to walk on their toes. They nails grew out into claws and a long tail extended from their spines.

Behavior
Weretigers were often known to be arrogant and perfectionists. Out of all lycanthropes they were considered the most adaptable, feeling equally at home in the company of humans and monsters. They also were generally disinterested in spreading their curse, for they viewed the propagation of weretigers as the creation of more competition for territory and prey.

Biology
Weretigeresses were typically known to bear one to two cubs. Such cubs were born in their hybrid state, though would appear human if born to a human mother. They matured at a faster rate than humans, crawling within days and walking within a month. At age 6 they were capable of transforming into a fully humanoid form and at age 12 gained access to their full-tiger forms.

Some, though not all, giant races were susceptible to this form of lycanthropy. Those most likely to be found inflicted were jungle giants.

Combat
When possible, weretigers liked to fight in their humanoid forms.

The majority of all weretiger's were isolationist xenophobia made in incarnate there were essentially more of a supernatural predator and less an actual race or societyEcology
.

Habitats
Weretigers can be found anywhere there curse can be given they are more a disease that spreads everywhere any race or culture can be a place a weretiger can be wild or civilized.
