Werewolf

Werewolves were creatures that could shapeshift from humanoid form to that of a wolf, voluntarily or otherwise.

Their condition was usually called lycanthropy. (TV: Mindwarp)

Legend

Werewolves were creatures that appeared human but tranformed into beasts in the light of a full moon. The bite of a werewolf would turn the victim into a werewolf. Like it happened to Queen Victoria when the Tenth Doctor met her.

Because they existed in myths, they were present in the Land of Fiction. The Cybermen converted them as woodsmen, but under the full moon they turned into monsters of plastic and flesh and fur. This showed the Cybermen the potential of converting other fictional creatures. (AUDIO: Legend of the Cybermen)
