A turnskin in a black circle Old English built the word from two pieces: wer, meaning man, and wulf. The Romans had their own name for the same idea, versipellis, the turnskin, and it says something plainer than any later version: a creature that wears one shape, then another. This design keeps that idea inside one circle. A long horned head snarls in profile against a pale grey field, worked in dense black thread with white edging along the mane and jaw. One red eye. A full set of white fangs. Curved capitals run along the lower edge, so the badge reads as a crest as much as a beast. Where the moon came in The older tales rarely mention it. Change came from a belt of wolfskin, an ointment, a river crossed at the wrong hour, or a curse carried down a family line. The full moon as the trigger arrived with the cinema of the last century and stuck so firmly that most people now assume it was always part of the story. There is more on that in what is a werewolf.
