Shape-shifter

A shape-shifter is an individual who, through conscious action, can dramatically alter their physical appearance and take on another form. In most cases, this involves transforming into a breed of animal, such as a wolf, a bat or a dog. The most popularly known breed of shape-shifters are werewolves; men and women who turn turn into a wolf or a wolf-like monster under specific conditions. Other types of shape-shifters exist as well such as cat people, bat people and even insect people. Shape-shifters in media grew in popularity in the 2000s, particularly with the Twilight Saga films and the HBO television series True Blood.
