This type of ritual definitely borders on 'black magic'. The reason? It's undeniably strange and unsettling, though its versatility has kept it from being fully classified as forbidden. Instead, it sits on the edge of that dangerous line, always threatening to tip over.
The concept is simple yet horrifying: 'kill a werewolf, absorb its supernatural traits', and in doing so, you'll transform into a 'half-werewolf'. But the price is steep. Half-werewolves can only shift during the full moon, and when they do, they become consumed by an uncontrollable bloodlust. The urge to kill becomes overpowering. The same curse applies to 'half-demons'. As they become more demonic over time, their humanity fades until there's no way back. This is the root of the ancient adage: "Kill the monster, and you'll inherit its curse, becoming an incarnation of its power."
