Who let the frogs out? (OOC)

He had no idea at the time that the frog he transported was fey--I assume he would have suspected they were if he had known that was a fey portal.

Here's how I've been playing Max and her transformations. Basically, she has three states. The savage wolf state, where she's basically an animal, the werewolf state, where she's a large predator with the mind of a human, and the human state, where she's Max. Her natural state is the werewolf state, but since she doesn't spend enough time in this state the way a healthy werewolf should, not only does it try to surface at inconvenient times, but another unnatural state has emerged, the savage wolf. Max is barely if at all aware of how this works.

Max is most vulnerable to unwilling transformation when she's stressed or angry, as stated in her playbook. You might notice she has something of an anger problem, this is actually a new thing, old human Max was not a particularly angry person, but now there's a wolf inside her that she's struggling to deal with. Once she's unwillingly transformed, the surest way to transform back is to resolve the emotional issue that forced the transformation in the first place. The transformation in Alara's apartment is a fine example: She wasn't just annoyed at the way Alara chose to deal with her, she was deeply angry at what she saw as an unjust situation that Alara was forced into. She only managed to transform back by resolving to help her out of it. In this situation, she'll probably need to figure out a plan to deal with the hellhound, if she can't then she might need to Keep her Cool to turn back, and a miss on that might indeed mean becoming the savage wolf.

Finally, the savage wolf doesn't rampage around killing people. It acts like a normal wolf, avoiding humans and acting on instinct. Just wanted to clear that up. :)

She'd definitely recognize Benji as a friend. She'd be suspicious of Persephone because she smells like demon. She'd be confused about Emma because she'd remember something sexy about her (her erotic thriller) but she wouldn't smell herself on her, so she'd realize that she wasn't her mate (very confusing!).

But since she hasn't gone savage yet, this is academic at this point.

Obv we aren't going to have a PvP fight here. She just assumes the worst for the moment.

Also, @vagueGM , I can't yet use my Devil inside move, right? I'd like to resolve that ASAP tbh. I think it's time for Pers to make the pitch to Viv (secretly, of course). Pers needs her mojo back!

I struggled, but I managed to resist a Lassie reference with Max!

Well depending on what we find, she may need to move through an obstacle or do harm. Alternatively if this is some kind demon faux pas I might want to draw my patron’s attention—as dangerous as that is
