Scarlan Ghost Werewolf
Source: Harker's Guide to Vampire Hunting
Lycanthropy is traditionally associated with the moon. Ancerra has five moons, each with its own form of Lycanthropy. In order from the closest to the farthest moon, the moons are: Primor, Sylvin, Scarlan, Garvor, and Diminus.
By traveling through other planes, such as the Everwilds, folk have populated the three habitable moons: Primor, Sylvin, and Diminus.
Primor is primarily a desert, while Sylvin consists mostly of forests with some surface water and ice caps. Diminus’s surface is entirely frozen, but hot spots bubbling up from the moon’s mantle offer pockets of habitable caves. Scarlan has a sulfurous atmosphere, and Garvor - the largest of the five - has no atmosphere, making both uninhabited.
When a creature suffers from Lycanthropy, its lycanthropic characteristics are influenced by the moon that is linked to that strain. Werewolves linked to Garvor are larger than others, while werewolves linked to Diminus have ice-based powers.
Scarlan Werewolf
A strange, ghostly change overtakes a creature that is linked with Scarlan. Scarlan is a gas moon, and werewolves bound to Scarlan often manifest the ability to fly, conjure clouds of fog, or phase through walls.
