Werewolf healing?

[MERLE E. WALLIS]

How fast is fast recovery? Is it like flesh coming back together Wolverine style or does it take time to recover, but the timeline to complete healing is faster?

If werewolves are not immortal, how invulnerable are they? Are they able to shake off getting shot like it was nothing? Is it more like they are pretty indestructible save for the ways you describe in the rules? Or is it the guideline that something that they just survive anything that doesn't outright kill them? How about scarring?

Not Wolverine style xD It still takes time, it's just faster. Say a werewolf and a human crash into each other, fall down, and they both scrape their knees. For the human it would take several days or more to clot, scab, and scar, but for the werewolf that would all just happen in probably half the time. It isn't right before your eyes mind you, but it is significantly quicker. This applies to pretty much all wounds too - cuts, scrapes, bruises, broken bones, fractured ribs, etc. They also get scar tissue just like humans.

Werewolves are still vulnerable to pain - it's still gonna hurt like a mother when they get shot, they can't just shake it off. I suppose if they get their brains blown out they could die, but I kinda count that as decapitation. But most things that would kill a normal human being - gunshot to vital organs below the neck, stabbings, bleeding to death, poison - none of that will do them in. They still feel the same effects a human would, the intense pain and whatnot, but they can survive.

Now I'm getting to thinking, probably anything involving severe dismemberment they wouldn't be able to survive either - say, throwing themselves off of a cliff to sharp rocks below that tear them to ribbons.

So let's say that basically anything that very severely disfigures them they can't survive. The reason they can survive many things in the first place is because of their ability to heal so quickly - but when something so intense happens to so much of their body all at once, that's when they can't recover.

I hope that makes sense... if you have something specific in mind or you think this explanation isn't valid or you need an example cleared up we can talk about it, I'm pretty flexible with this sort of thing :3

It was just a fact check for a recent thread I'm in. And I thought that that was how it worked! Thanks for confirming.
