Spontaneously, what's your first thought - yes or no?
Don't answer "it depends" or something like that. I'm first of all interested in whether you'd answer the question in the topic with a yes or a no given the information included in the topic.
Okay, now for the "it depends" part, and where I'm interested in a more thought out respose.
Obviously it's up to me as a writer to decide whether werewolves in my setting get hangovers or not, but I figured it might make for an interesting/amusing topic.
In many settings werewolves are immune to diseases or poisons. They have strong healing powers and can heal serious wounds in much shorter time than a normal human.
Now, alcohol is clearly a poison, but is a hangover a disease, or an effect of the poison, or something else. As I understand, one of the causes for hangover is dehydration. How would a werewolf deal with that?
I'm pretty sure the werewolf in my story will be getting a hangover (because all my characters eventually do, and usually sooner rather than later), but I'd like to run it by the hivemind to see what you have to say here.
