A little secret of mine.. Those werewolves in Solsteim. If you kill them sneakily without them turning, and then use dead thrall on them, they will permenantly become werewolves when they get attacked. This gives you a permenant werewolf thrall. The only issue is if your thrall dies you can't thrall them again because dead thrall isn't supposed to work on werewolves. Have fun.

I have always thought that werewolves should have a greater presence in the game, especially on nights of the full moon.

Oh and mud crabs are not hostile to falmers just like spiders and chaursus. You can eat mud crab chitin to basically get to bash again when u run out of stamina like the stew that regen stamina but it only lasts for a few seconds per chitin and if you happened to get the perk to unlock more stuff per ingredient when you eat it they double as a cure disease potion. Now for the fifth one you can use a mudcrab like a purse kill it put the stuff you want in it reanimate it and fast travel very easy to move a lot of stuff in one go.

[@samuelromero1763]

The reason the companions have so much control over their transformations is because they got the disease directly from hircine. This is similar to how Harkon and his family got their vampirism through a ritual involving Molag bal. Both of these parties got their power directly from the main vine, and that’s why they are stronger.

In the Elder Scrolls universe, the term Lycanthropy is used for all werebeasts as werewolves are the most common species of shapeshifter, with the others being mostly regional.

You forgot to mention how the transformation is incredibly painful because the heart multiplies in size before the chest cavity does, as well as because the skin stretches and rips before healing. It is theorized that the bloodlust and insanity of feral werewolves is caused by this terrible and excruciating pain.

[@Dylan-eb2xn]

And the teeth must fall out and eventually do it again the claws must go through your fingers and fingernails have to fall off your spine must get longer for the tail and the fur would cause an extreme itchiness due to its extreme growth rate making the werewolf scratch with it's new claws ripping their own flesh apart with their newfound strength because of its decreased mental compacity and inability to resist the urge of itching the skin must rip open and muscles could even tear off of the bone disabling the werewolf so to utilize a transformation you would have to survive and heal from the wounds inflicted by turning but thoose severe injuries would more than likely kill a werewolf unless they had some kind of healing factor and even then you have to go back so the claws must fall out along with the fangs you grew the fur must be shed and more importantly the muscle mass and bones would shrink but just like how when people lose a lot of weight quickly they have wrinkles of skin except theese would inhibit any movement and could kill you by more or less skinning you so the transformation would be lethal but the healing factor keeps you alive but still feeling the pain so basically the very definition of hell because you would constantly be in agony or just recovering from said torture and your possibly increased life span means you would put up with it for all of what would seem like eternity and on top of that you have to worry about persecution from people who dont understand you are being constantly tortured P.s. wolves and dogs have shorter lifespans and they get even shorter in larger canines so being that size might make your torture shorter. P.p.s. btw you wouldn't be immune from diseases of any kind that you were susceptible to before in fact you could catch diseases from both canines and humans meaning you could catch parvovirus by just interacting in an area where a dog that had it or overcame the virus recently has been.

[@skynyrdjesus]

I love the fact that werebears and werewolves are in open war with each other. It's a lovely little nod to DnD, and I always appreciate that. For those who aren't aware, in DnD, for most editions anyway, I won't speak for all of them, werewolves are evil creatures degraded by a curse and become more and more violent and animalistic over time, whether transformed or not. Werebears on the other hand are lawful good by nature, and generally speaking take it upon themselves to not only prevent the spread of their own curse to the innocent, they oppose lycanthropy wherever they encounter it. Basically werewolves almost always give into their curse after a long enough time, depending on the individual it may take longer, because it's a malicious curse and is born from vengeance or violence, depending on how you get it. Werebears on the other hand maintain a strong sense of self and duty, because their curse is much more benevolent, and could even be considered a blessing from a nature god to make them better guardians of the land, depending on setting and the traditions of the pack. The only major exception in most cases are natural born lycanthropes. They tend to have a lot more moral grey area, and adapt better to the beast blood because it was a circumstance of their birth, not retaliation for misdeeds or because of a traumatic attack. And for DMs out there that hate how black and white the alignments tend to be, as I used to be in this case, also consider that evil people are considerably more likely to become werewolves in the first place. To be a first or second generation werewolf, you would have to do something so terrible that someone cursed you, you had it forced upon you in the worst moment of your life and it ruins your life forever, or you were raised by pretty horrible people who suffered the above. It's hard to imagine a lycanthrope who isn't a terrible person until you get to at least the third generation, if not fourth or fifth. Werebears get to just be awesome though

Here's one thing you may not know about Argonians. During the Oblivion Crisis, portals opened up all over Tamriel, not just in Cyrodiil. The Daedra voluntarily closed the portals in Black Marsh because the Argonians would enter the portals and fight the Daedra in Oblivion itself, basically invading Oblivion and defeating armies of Daedra. Kinda like the player character but on a much larger scale.

@@scarfhero2073 - I personally would love to see Weresharks. However, I know that is unlikely. They'll probably have Werewolves, because they've become kind of expected in TES games now. And they'll probably have Wereboars to some capacity, even if they're just NPCs like the Werebears of Skyrim. After that, they may start to think they'd be overloading us with Werebeasts. The one place I thought would be most likely to have more Werebeasts is in The Elder Scrolls Online. That game could get away with having as many lycanthropes as they want, and yet they've limited themselves to just Werewolves. I do hope they at least add others, even if they're just skins.

I always thought it would be cool if in the game as a werewolf player, you’re forced to turn on a full moon and all other NPCs become an indistinguishable glowing blob, so you don’t know who is good or bad, and if you’re attacking an innocent person or not. I think it would add to the confusion and panick of being a werewolf, where you actually need to track the moon and prepare for the change and either lock yourself up, go somewhere distant or medicate yourself and sleep through it. If you get lazy and forget you might try to fast travel and not realize that fast travel covers the full moon and awaken somewhere along the path in a monstrous rage, or be deep in a dungeon and just wig out in the middle of a quest. I want actual CONSEQUENCES for being a MONSTER!

I actually like the theory that there is more to the Silver Hand than we get told, and that they might be more than just menacing beast-hunters, but it makes me laugh that they would be so upset that the descendants of Yssgramor's Companions sport the curse of a Daedra when Yssgramor himself was no saint, and probably firmly in the control of the dragon cult. They want the ax that literally crushed an entire breed of elf, but fear that the Companions are tainted with lycanthropy. And maybe they won't go to Sonvgarde; that's too bad for Nords, but then maybe they won't get eaten by Yssgramor's master, ad Alduin seems to use Sovngarde, andcthe souls of the honored dead, as his larder. I don't know ifvsouls under Hircine are actually destroyed, or if he just keeps recycling them fir future hunts, but that might still be preferable to being eaten by the World Eater?
