I’m pretty sure a vampire can kill a werewolf

Oh man see you gotta remember, werewolves are only strong when they are transformed. Vampires are strong 24/7, well except In the sun. So a vampire can easily kill a werewolf on a moonless night. Werewolves are just regular dudes without the moon. The vampire just has to worry about the werewolves they are trying to kill having UV lamps.

The relation to the full moon to werewolves is relatively recent, mostly added so black and white movies had an excuse to have well-lit night scenes. Most werewolf mythology pre-Hollywood involved being able to change into a wolf at will via witchcraft, or a curse that would randomly transform them. So more than one night a month.

Now that you put it that way, this Hershel Walker might really be onto something here.

Werewolves are equipped with thick lumberjack shirts and bushy beards 24/7. Vampires have, what, pasty skin and a cape?

Obviously the hypervirile werewolves will beat the effeminate vampires, how is that even a question.

Depends on the setting, in the World of darkness setting the werewolf are one of the few things that have no problem giving a vampire true death.

As I recall werewolves range from vastly more powerful than a young vampire, to barely a threat for older ones.

Are we going to have to have the "Batman with prep time beats Superman" convo again?

A werewolf in melee range of a vampire fucks shit up, otherwise it depends on who spots who first.
