Didn't reall feel right. And if you can't drop them below zero then you can never defeat them. Werewolves are terrifying but they are not Freddy Kruger... at least, not to me.

This sort of thing isn't really reflected in Glorantha. As far as I recall, non-silver or magic just didn't bother them.

I'd rather not impose a new rules set for a specilized creature and work with what is existing -- that was the axiom employed throughout writing/editing Anaxial's Record. Trying to keep rules subsets to as low a number as possible.

In HW? The jury is still out on some of these. I am not quite sure what you are asking, though many of the creatures are described in some detail in Anaxial's Record.

This list is HW rules intensive - and specifically Gloranthan as we've not had anyone post here about playing elsewhere. For trying to run the game in Glorantha, there's the herowars list at onelist.com which handles more cultural and social aspects of campaigning. This lets us keep the hard core rules discussion on this list.
Hope this helps.
