This collection also includes werewolf attack victims, since there are very few fledged-fledged lycanthropes in canon.

Bill Weasley
They called me the curse breaker,
The order, that is,
They tried to call me Weasley's
Gringotts star-
But now they call me slashface,
They're right, I fight,
For my face reflects my soul
Inside the bars-
I was pacing the parapets,
And thinking of her,
Thinking home, friends
And family too-
I was thinking of the times we've had,
And times we one day would,
But then Voldemort showed up
And things were new-
I've replayed the moment many times,
I do not know the count,
I see the thing approach me
Shooting spells-
They rebound off the wall,
Miss me by yards, and miss him too,
Then I slip and he is on me-
Piercing yells-
I faint into the night and wake,
The sky is pitch black now,
The bodies line the halls and I-
I think that I am one-
But the people come in running,
Saying Voldemort is down,
I stand with pain to see-
The battle's done-
Blood oozes from my cheek freely,
The wolf within me growls,
I stop and smell the death around-
The halls ring silent tones-
I am searching everywhere, it seems,
For one who knows my name-
Where a wolf walks he is
Always quite alone-
Those were days of wartime,
But we're survivors,
Those were days of sorrow-
That I won't forget-
I may be slashed and hurting,
But we will live on,
There's no debt to pay-
The dead have no regrets.
