Lycans are werewolves.
AnswerThe term 'Lycanthrope' was never shortened in that fashion until the movie Underworld came out. So there is no historical precedent for 'lycans'. They exist only in the movie "Underworld" and its sequels.Spiritual therianthropy, however, is real. But no self-respecting or knowledgeable therian would ever call themselves a 'Lycan'. The therian community likewise rejected "Garou", and "Lupines" when those were the popular terms for werewolves.
If you see someone going around calling themselves a Lycan, they're either a confused kiddie (whether they're therian or not), or they're a roleplayer.
No, Lycans are not real. The term was created for the movie "Underworld". Lycanthropy is a psychological condition in which an individual suffers from the delusion that they are turning into a wild animal.
Spiritual therianthropy is the belief or feeling that one is a non-human animal in mind and/or spirit (in whole or in part). There is a spiritual therianthrope community, (often referred to as 'therian' for short).
There are also some confused therian youngsters who are going around referring to themselves as 'lycans', and, alas, more than a few roleplayers and delusional youngers who are doing the same.
As for actual physical shapeshifters--we can't be 100% sure whether they exist or not, but we CAN be sure that if they do, they aren't calling themselves "Lycans".
It's different for each Lycan. They wont all hate the same people/things, just like we don't.
These fictional beings from the "Underworld" movies are not portrayed as being evil. They are dangerous and violent, but they are complex, like human folk--not black and white.
Yes. Lycan is an uncommon family name, probably a derivation of Leikam, which is of German origin.
no lucian is only in underworld and rise of the lycans and (sniff) sonja dies in rise of the lycans. but she is not in the rest of them :)
lucian is the main lycan in underworld and rise of the lycans. Michael is the hybrid (vampire/lycan)in underworld and evolution. :)
In those times girls were breeders, mothers, not fighters or killers like lycans. Woman weren't considered strong then.

Lycans?
Lycans are not mentioned at all in the Bible.
The Werewolves in Underworld were called Lycans
Lycans are not real, so they don't eat humans.
Most lycans live in or near areas with woods/forests or sucluded areas.

Lycans.
If by Lycans you mean werewolves, they don't exist. If by Lycan you mean wolf it's because it's beautiful.
