The Wolf Man in The Wolf Man (1941) played by Lon Chaney Jr is my werewolf.
Yes, we've had much better werewolf designs in movies since then, but he's basically the first and it's still a great atmospheric movie, and there's not denying the iconic stature of the movie, the actor, and the design.

It depends on what the context is. Gandalf, Saruman and Dr. Strange don't belong in this draft. Something closer to the traditional context of a 'witch' or 'warlock' for draft purposes. And FYI, creature is singular, it can only be one of the creatures from A Quiet Place. Still a great pick. Does Hermione Granger from Harry Potter count? If she does I call dibs. I just need the ruling I'd rather save HP characters for the Fantasy draft (does that make it a Fantasy Fantasy draft?). I'm tempted to let you have her, but then I've set precedent for HP characters and people are choosing Voldemort, Dumbledore, etc. The power levels get out of hand fast.

I need a ruling. Are wizards and witches the same thing? You also describe it as fiend. Can they be good? It depends on what the context is. Gandalf, Saruman and Dr. Strange don't belong in this draft. Something closer to the traditional context of a 'witch' or 'warlock' for draft purposes. And FYI, creature is singular, it can only be one of the creatures from A Quiet Place. Still a great pick. Wait. So do I need to pick a singular alien from Quiet Place? |

We'll just say it's one of them, you don't have to specify.

To be fair, you've already allowed Lupin from Harry Potter. Dunk on em! On the other hand Lupin is literally a werewolf - so maybe hard not to allow it. Other characters might be playing a little fast and loose with the categories. (I was planning to take Voldemort as my revenant because I'm totally stumped for that category - but if Rey won't allow that, I'll have to think on it more)

I'd rather save HP characters for the Fantasy draft (does that make it a Fantasy Fantasy draft?). I'm tempted to let you have her, but then I've set precedent for HP characters and people are choosing Voldemort, Dumbledore, etc. The power levels get out of hand fast. To be fair, you've already allowed Lupin from Harry Potter. My bad, I guess I didn't realize he was also a wizard. I've seen each of those movies one time (my wife is a fan) and pretty much completely tuned them out. Ok, I guess I'll allow Hermione then.

Just needed the clarification. Not that anyone cares my little brother wants to help. So I wanted to pick one of his choices to please him. |

David - An American Werewolf in London (1981) I was also surprised how unpopular werewolves were in the draft, myself included. You and goons took the two that came to mind first for me. I went with a 90s HBO movie because I knew nobody else would. Max Dire. Another character in the movie's last name is Garou. You've got Lupin for HP. Not very subtle with these names, are they?
