| I'm going with Werewolf but Im more partial to Werebears (had a werebear berserker in 4e that was a LOT of fun to play). Plus vampires are just too limiting. |

Gotta vote vampire because everyone knows werewolves aren't real. 
In all honesty though, I'd seek to be a weretiger. |

Vampire because I would probably survive (depending on the particular vampire mythos) and sometimes it is portrayed as being pleasurable somehow? (Vampire magic or something in them?) If its a "kill" vampire who are wholly evil it'd be hard to say. Vampire mythologies, especially modern mythologies,are so varied it would depend on the particular "rules" applied to them.
A werewolf would probably kill me... and i'd be infected with lycanthropy myself...??
I find werewolves a "sexier" idea though. Vibrantly and super alive versus a walking corpse... |

| I voted werewolf, but I rather werecat, Chaotic Good, more urban enviroment friendly, and the least like Lycanthrope to be murder by a terrorified mob. After all would you get pitchforks over some who turned into a small cat and was magically compeled to be good? |

| You guys are all a bunch of Realmsian PERVERTS, LOL!!!! Can't I be bitten by both? I played a Fianna Bruja abomination in White Wolf years ago, and he was a lot of fun to play. He was a suicidal and reckless teenager named Richard, who eventually ended up burnt to a crisp when our party's were-croc used his "midnight sun" power in a battle with a bunch of vampiric were-jackals on the African savanna at night. "Poor Richard" got caught in the radius. I later learned that the croc (the DM's NPC "party leader") had done it on purpose to kill him along with the jackals. He planned to kill our entire party. I never played with him again, but the game was pretty fun up to that point. I had the best of BOTH worlds! And no fleas.... |

Hmm, a werevert? That might work.
I'm currently developing a drow (male) shade/fey'ri (yes I know that'st meant to apply to gold elves, but I prefer it to tiefling). He's going to be a follower of the Masked Lady. He's not a vamp or lycan, but I figure since we're throwing out ideas I'd include mine. |

I always wanted to play in the World of Darkness, and I even had several different characters ready to go -- my gaming group kept making plans to play in WoD, but they kept falling thru. I had a khan, a Glass Walker Ragabash (big surprise, I'm sure), and a kinfolk cat burglar NSA agent (Project Twilight) ready to go, and I was working on a mokole...
Given all that, and my creation of a werecat Lord of Waterdeep, I guess I gotta go with werewolves for this one.  |

| If we can pick things that aren't one of the two choices offered...I think werebears would be the "hottest"... |

Why do I see this degenerating into something akin to the "Vampire vs. Lycan" movies?
Anyway, good to be back and favoring a ranger at heart, I voted for the wolf. After watching Twilight with my nieces, the whole idea of vampires just got ruined. Damn Ann and Stephanie to every one of the hells....
Good Hunting! |

Heh, the poll should have offered "sparkly vampires" and "regular vampires" as options. Then again, who would choose the former? |

Werewolf, because werewolves still possess body heat, and that for me is very important. Don't want to be a werewolf forever, though. When I get tired of "bodily pleasures," I'd want to be a lich. |
