Werewolf

Playable Race

Lycanthropes are cursed people who transform into great beasts on the light of the full moon. They're often referred to in folk tales as madmen and cannibals, but in truth they have lived as kings and serfs alongside their human kin. Most werewolves, however, have no knowledge of their history; that knowledge is often held in confidence by monster hunters and elder lycanthropes.

Lycanthropy is as much a mental illness as a physical curse; those suffering often have symptoms of other disorders, such as dyslexia, schizophrenia, or even body or gender dysmorphia. However, understanding of these features has shifted much over human history, and such people were often misunderstood.
