* NotUsingTheZWord: For wolfbloods, the word "werewolf" is more associated with the types you see in monster movies, and they're very adamant on this.

Up To Eleven is a defunct trope


** Then taken [[UpToEleven even higher]] with their "Eolas" sense: they can see, hear, and smell ''everything'' around them, even from miles away! However, this sense has two major drawbacks: being near technology (specifically, electrical fields) hurts them badly, and it's ''incredibly'' addictive. There's a good reason why tame Wolfbloods are forbidden from using it.

* EarnYourHappyEnding: It's safe to say that Rhydian and Maddy had their fair share of roadblocks in their relationship; first, they had to separate when Shannon and Tom found out about them being Wolfbloods, and then when Rhydian returned to Stoneybridge from the wild, they had to separate ''again'', with Maddy and her family going to the wild while Rhydian stayed behind, thanks to Dr Whitewood's interference and research, before the Smiths are sent the Canada for their own protection, leaving Rhydian stuck in Stoneybridge. It isn't until the end of series 3 that Rhydian is able to move to Canada himself, reuniting with Maddy in wolf form there.

* BullyingADragon: Jimi and the K's love invoking this trope. Mostly directed towards Maddy and co, which is a very bad idea since their pack consists of three wolfbloods who could snap at a moment's notice.



* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: Obviously. Maddy even references this when Rhydian assumes he's a werewolf because he was bitten by one (it's because his parents are werewolves).

to:

* OurWerewolvesAreDifferent: Obviously. Maddy even references this when Rhydian assumes he's a werewolf because he was bitten by one (it's because his parents are werewolves). Yet these types of werewolves aren't the monsterous types and are more correlated to be in touch with nature. Though wild wolfbloods subvert this as they are more viscous and territorial which causes them to act like typical werewolves.


Added DiffLines:

* TrademarkFavoriteFood: All wolfbloods love meat. This is due to them being natural born carnivores due to their wolf physiology.
