Homebrew Werwolf Species Details
As the Full Moon rises high into the night sky it illuminates the fields, forests, and creeks of the countryside. For some, it means a time of rest, but for you, it means a fight, whether it's against your own demons, or anything foolish enough to cross your path during your "time of the month". For you, it means a long night, for you are a werewolf.
You either chose or have been cursed with this burden, but it can make you a favor. When your enemies are too great in strength and number you can turn into a beast that can turn the situation to better, but also to worse.
