Pretend to Be a Wolfblood

Do you want to be a Wolfblood? Maybe you just want to pull a small prank? Well this is the closest you're going to get to being an actual Wolfblood, so read on....

Steps

  1. Remember, 'Wolfbloods are born, not made', so it's probably best to do this if you are moving house or schools. If you want to prank your existing friends, you may want to go for the more 'werewolf' type.
  2. Be aware of when full moons occur. Everybody knows that werewolves change on the full moon. Well it's the same with Wolfbloods. Every full moon, you should act worried, like you're going to be late for something, keep checking the clock, especially when it gets close to sunset. If you are with friends, or at school, excuse yourself, and rush off home. Don't answer your phone that night if anybody calls to see where you are.
  3. Know how to act around Dark moons. This is when there is no moon in the sky. Act really tired, not like you can't be bothered with your schoolwork, just super tired. You could even stay awake as long as possible, and get up early to make it more realistic.
  4. Do not wear dresses. If you are a girl or a boy. Wolfbloods and werewolves just don't wear dresses or skirts. Also, if you wear it, keep the make-up to a minimum. If you can't help it, apply just basic make-up, perhaps black eye-liner. You want to look as normal as you can, as if you are trying not to get noticed, of course, you are trying to get noticed and Show off by playing a game of pretend.
  5. Try not to wear bright colours, stick to forest inspired blues and greens. Brown is often seems in forecasts too, wear brown if you like. If you want to wear muted autumnal colors, that's an option too.
  6. Look at someone you don't like, snarl silently with your teeth bared, or else smile with your mouth open. This is a wolf's sign of challenging or dislike.
  7. Move fast and skilfully, and improve on your sense of balance so you don't fall over.
  8. Pretend to be able to hear things really loudly that perhaps others cannot. Pretend to be able to see really far and pick up scents.
  9. Play a trick, where, when you have a friend round, or are in the playgrounds at school, hide something when they are not looking. Hide a small object that is not easily found, but make sure you remember where you put it. Ask them to help you find it, and, when you are sure they can see you, lift your nose into the air, or take a sniff at the air, and pretend to follow a 'scent trail' to your object. Say 'Oh, look, I've found it.' If you see them looking at you strangely, look a little worried and hurry on.
  10. Eat meat. Pretend to be obsessed with meat if you are not already. Wolfbloods and werewolves love meat.
  11. Be afraid of fire. Wolves are afraid of fire, so are Wolfbloods. If your parents light a fire in the grate, hang back and eye it wearily. If you are at a bonfire with your friends, growl/snarl so they can hear you, but others can't. You don't want to be labelled as a psycho, you are just playing a joke.
  12. If people start to tease you (which they might, so don't be afraid), glare at them and snarl silently with your teeth bared, or else smile with your mouth open. As you probably remember, this is a wolf's sign of dislike or challenging.
  13. Don't tell people you are a Wolfblood unless you have a really good friend who will help you and play along. They could be another Wolfblood in your pack (perhaps you moved to the school together, to protect each other) or perhaps a werewolf hunter. That would make it interesting, and possibly more fun for you.
  14. Let your parents know you are unduly yourself in this fantasy. You should tell your mum or dad you are playing a prank if you are going to be keeping up the act at home, so they don't get worried. Make sure you tell them it is a prank/joke, not say 'I'm a wolfblood', or they'll take you to a psychiatrist.
  15. Make sure this doesn't become a burden in your everyday life, especially if you are under stress with exams and stuff. If you are ready to give up the act, announce to everybody you were pranking that it was all a joke. They will either laugh or be really cross. If they are really your friends, they will get over it, so don't worry. If you want to keep the act up for as long as you know your friends, start on the last couple of years of school so you don't have to keep it up for that long. It will get a bit boring if you have to keep up the pretence all the time, so it's no recommended holding up until University. You can keep the act up for as long as you want, but sometimes it becomes a bit of a chore, it's not meant to be a chore, it's meant to be a game.

Tips

  • You could wear a wolf charm or something that you never take off. If someone asks you about it, you could say something like 'Oh, just a little something....' or 'It's just a little family emblem, you know....'
  • Be in touch with nature. In the Wolfblood series, they use 'Eolas', to connect to their inner wolf.
  • Don't tell anyone apart from your parents or perhaps a good friend that you are playing a prank.
  • For Girls: don't shave much. That way it will look more 'Wolfy'. Of course, you can shave if you want.
  • You could write a diary of your Wolfblood life, and leave it around somewhere where one of your friends might find it. If you are good at drawing, you could do a couple of labelled/detailed sketches of a Wolfblood/werewolf in wolf form. Make sure to make them realistic!
  • Act dodgy when people mention werewolves. If someone mentions killing a werewolf, get angry.
  • For yellow eyes, you could try colored contacts.

Warnings

  • Be exactly like the wolf you (a combination of your personality and behavior of a wolf) but don't change who you are!
  • People may tease you. So what? Ignore them. Be sneaky, and make them get laughed at. Or be the Alpha and show them who's boss.

Things You'll Need
