Go To

1'''Basic Trope''': A character infected with TheVirus tries to fight their sire and find a cure.
2* '''Straight''': Zack was bitten by a werewolf and is slowly turning into one. He finds silver weapons, gives some to his friends and sets out to kill the original werewolf to save himself.
3* '''Exaggerated''': Zack takes his rebellion to the next level: he get silver piercings, drinks wolfsbane milkshakes, and becomes a badass biker to hunt down the werewolf who bit him.
4* '''Downplayed''': Zack isn't crazy about becoming a werewolf, avoids hurting innocents, and would like to be cured. However, he isn't about to kill the werewolf who bit him.
5* '''Justified''': Zack's entire family was killed by werewolves, and his brother (who also survived the attack) became evil because of it. So he's out for revenge and a cure.
6* '''Inverted''':
7** Zack kills anyone ''bitten'' by a werewolf if they show the slightest hint of hesitation about embracing the werewolf lifestyle. He's nothing but thankful to the werewolf who bit him, and if he finds a cure he'll destroy it.
8** Zack actively tries to get himself bitten by a werewolf, wanting to become one himself.
9* '''Subverted''': After being bitten by a werewolf, Zack kills the one that bit him, finds a cure... and then lets himself get bitten by a vampire. He's more of a [[SlobsVersusSnobs snob than a slob]] when it comes to FurAgainstFang.
10* '''Double Subverted''': ... only for him to reveal he ''wasn't'' cured, and wanted the vampire bite because HybridOverkillAvoidance makes two negatives (Werewolf X Vampire) results in a positive (Human).
11* '''Parodied''': Zack was bitten by a werewolf, zombie, and a vampire, and he just can't decide which to rebel against first.
12* '''Zig Zagged''': Zack alternates between fighting the change and embracing it.
13* '''Averted''': The transformation is so fast Zach has no time to resist it, and because it's TheVirus he does a FaceMonsterTurn.
14* '''Enforced''': Zack is the hero, and werewolves are cool, as are rebels. So Zack becomes a werewolf and rebels against that.
15* '''Lampshaded''': There's an actual HunterOfMonsters association dedicated to helping and arming the HunterOfHisOwnKind. To the point Zack's hunter mentor quips Zack may have to bite a bunch of random people if he wants to keep in business.
16* '''Invoked''': Zack threatens the werewolf who bit him with becoming a VampireRefugee unless he helps him adjust.
17* '''Exploited''': The villain Zoey knows Zack is looking for a cure, so she gives him a silver laced "cure" to kill him.
18* '''Defied''': Zoey, the werewolf who bit Zack, doesn't want to create her own nemesis. So she romances him before biting him and presents the situation as a way to make their bond stronger. He's now too conflicted to resist properly.
19* '''Discussed''': "IHateYouVampireDad!" "Oh, wow, I just had a flashback of my own sire and me. Trust me kid, it's just a phase."
20* '''Conversed''': "So, Zack doesn't want to be a werewolf and is fighting the bad ones?" "Yeah, even though it's [[CurseThatCures cured him of cancer.]]"
