The monster woman was captured and brought back bound and chained several minutes later. Several riders were missing from the initial troop in pursuit.
She was still in her half-human, half-beast form and the sight was just sickening. Although its greenish fur was caked with dried human blood, the rage-ridden creature appeared utterly incapable of coherent thinking and only snarled and bared its teeth whenever anyone got too close.
In this state, the humanoid monster did not resemble any known Earth beast. The claws, tail, and fur might suggest a large grizzly bear, but its lack of a nose, six bulging red eyes, and three moss-covered antlers spreading out like a fan on either side of its skull disputed this.
This elderly woman, who was in fact only about forty years old, was neither a Werewolf nor a Werebear, but was indeed a Were-being.
'What species is this?' Jake asked Xi to save a scan.
