Why Lycans are better than Vampires - dopple

Why werewolves are better than vampires:
Let's go for basics: would you rather hang with a leech or a puppy?
It's all about being tidy: not all bitten by vampires become immortal so they leave around a lot of desicated corpses. Werewolves eat the meat, lick up the blood, and bury the bones in the backyard.
Vampires primarily feed on humans whereas werewolves will go after any available meat source. This may not seem like much of a reason...unless you're one of those potential meat sources. Better odds you might get passed over for a cow.
Vampires have the tendency to be exceedingly pretentious while werewolves are more cozy and down to earth.
Vampires are strictly night creatures as sunlight will kill them but werewolves are good to go at any time.
If you're on good terms with one you could cuddle up to a werewolf for warmth. Vampires aren't very warm unless they've recently fed...they're generally more cold and clammy.
Werewolves are natural protectors. Vampires pretty much only protect themselves.
Just to be punny: Vampires suck!
While I have enjoyed a pale skinned beauty by the light of a full moon, you just can't look forward to a hot vampire lady sunning herself topless on a Mediterranean beach.
Despite what you may've gotten from Joss Whedon or the Queen of the Damned film, according to the actual folklore vampires are supposed to be impotent. Not a problem if you're a guy reading this but if you're a girl....
By and large, vampires primary nutritional supplement is blood; can't survive without it. For werewolves it's meat but they actually can survive on any number of other things.
Both are immortal but a vampire's youthful appearance is highly dependent on their diet.
Werewolves can sleep anywhere but vampires supposedly need to sleep with the dirt from wherever there homeland is.
Vampires can't cross rivers or streams but werewolves can.
A single bite from a werewolf can transform anyone else but with vamps it's a long drawn out process and the vamp·to·be has to die first.
While it is unlikely that you could play fetch with a werewolf, it would be impossible with a vampire; they tend to shy away from wooden sticks.
It's a lot easier to find a wooden stake than a silver bullet.
One of the more obscure vampire weaknesses is the compulsion to count beans, or seeds, that are around them. You could literally immobilize one by tossing a handful in their path.
As with the last one, vamps also suffer a compulsion in regards to untying knots.
Werewolves can survive in any Italian restaurant.
1st series of Howard the Duck told the tale of how Dracula was starving one night and fed from a cow. It then became a vampire, which wouldn't have been so bad except it had a Dracula·style cape as well. There's just no shaking that image.
Folklore & myth reveal there are numerous species of vampire, just as there are many kinds of werebeast. Still, you'd be hard pressed to find anything cooler than the now infamous were·rabbit.
Regardless of how good they may look, vampires are walking corpses. To become one you've got to die. Werewolves are living, breathing creatures and you don't need to die to become one.
Prior to the inception of Bram Stoker's novel, vampires were described as animated corpses that sort of drifted around in pursuit of any blood source. Blood would spill out the throat and from between the ribs as they fed; the character in Nosferatu was pretty by comparison.
Whether they be a person taking on some wolf·like characteristics, a humanoid form with a wolf's head, or a full·on transformation into a truly powerful and fierce canid; werewolves are beautiful.
Even though both possess remarkable regenerative abilities, vamps are exceedingly protective of their youthful visage. They're so vain they lose much of the advantage in a physical confrontation even though they can heal the damage.
Vampires can be warded off/repelled by any number of things like religious items or garlic. Short of an unusually large rolled·up newspaper, there's no warding off a werewolf.
Werewolves don't need to be invited into your home to enter.
Vampires attempt to worm themselves into the good graces of others, often as a means to both find victims and prevent others from suspecting them. Werewolves don't do this, often preferring to keep others at a distance for mutual safety.
Werewolves may get fleas but vampires are fleas...in severely overpriced outfits.
While it may be of little comfort, werewolves tend to make their kills relatively fast...whereas vampires may take up to 3 days to finish someone off.
Outside of the bite, werewolves can actually increase their numbers through sex, producing entire litters of future weres.
