Canis sapien |
a species of werewolf that differs from that found in popular folklore in that it is actually a sentient wolf species that has the ability to shapeshift into human form. The transformation may be complete or partial as desired, and can happen at any time.

Dingo |
a derogatory expression used for the human who is bitten by a Canis sapien. The transformation only takes place during the period of a full moon (which includes the night before and after) and is incomplete, resulting in something that is part human and part wolf, with the human psyche suppressed and replaced by that of a ravenous beast. It is believed that these are the origins of the creatures in human literature and media.

What We Look Like
Although I do not have photos of those who I have written about in my journal, and I am loathe to put pictures of myself on the Internet, I shall endeavor to give a description of some of us by way of comparison with media personalities that may easily be found.
JACK: I have actually been stopped on the street and asked "What did Jack look like?" by women who were apparently intrigued by my depiction of him. I had no idea how to respond to them, but novelist Anthony Regolino, who has composed my notes and journals into their published form, has introduced me to a BBC television series (Being Human) that featured what he thought Jack might be like, and sure enough there he was. Add some extra length to his hair and the John Mitchell character (played by Aidan Turner) would be the embodiment of Jack.
ARYANA: I haven't been approached by men about this, but I can just imagine that they would be just as curious about Aryana's appearance as women have been about Jack's. Well this is an easy one. One of my brother's favorite movies growing up was The Howling, and he's made me sit through it often enough that I know it pretty well. There is a character in it named Marsha, and she was one of the most sexiest women I had ever encountered on screen at that time (and perhaps helped color my impression of what a sensuous woman should be like--not that I ever came close to it!). Facially they may differ, but everything else about her, from her style to the way she exudes sex and confidence, is Aryana to a tee!
As for facially, here's an interesting story: I was flipping channels one night and suddenly had the wind knocked out of me when I saw an actress who reminded me so much of Aryana: Genesis Rodriguez. When reading or rereading the first book of my encounters with them, this is the face you can envision. However, if she wanted to portray her onscreen, her soft-spoken voice would need a hard, harsh edge to it, and she would have to replace her sweet-natured pleasant demeanor (at least, that's how she was in the role I happened to catch her in) with a ballsy, in-your-face assertiveness. Nevertheless, it still took me a while before I could sleep that night after that.
ME: I find it hard to compare myself in this manner, but Mr. Regolino has helped out in that capacity by likening me to actress Monica Potter as she appeared in the film Along Came a Spider. I guess that fits. He also said that I remind him of Cameron Richardson but I don't quite see it.
