Curse of the Werecreature

Parent page Werecreature

A werecreature’s ability to transmit its curse to other victims through a bite is a core aspect of the werecreature mythology, but it has the potential to be disruptive in the hands (or jaws) of a PC. GMs and players should carefully consider whether granting a PC the ability to transform other humanoids into werecreatures will have a negative impact on the other players’ enjoyment of the game or distract from the overall story. Similarly, the loss of selfcontrol and amnesiac rampages traditionally associated with a werecreature’s compulsory transformation under a full moon might appeal to some players, whereas others might dislike the prospect of losing control of their characters for an extended period of time and choose to simply ignore that aspect of their condition.
