Werewolf Analysis
Becoming a Werewolf
In Wildlander, post character creation the only way to become a Werewolf is to complete the quest line for the Companions of Jorrvaskr in Whiterun, up until the quest “The Silver Hand.” Skjor will lead the Dragonborn to The Underforge, there he will offer the opportunity to drink the blood of Aela the Huntress when she is in Werewolf form, and become a Werewolf.

- No “well-rested” bonus is gained from sleeping.
- Transformed Werewolves cannot equip apparel, including armor.
- When in Beast Form, you cannot pick locks or collect items/loot from corpses.
- Doors can still be opened, except those requiring a key from inventory.
- Levers, buttons, pull chains and switches can still be activated, except those that require the removal of debris to be operated (as in Raldbthar Deep Market, where items must be dislodged to activate certain switches.)
- When transformed, they may be unable to fit through narrow dungeon doorways. Walking through such doorways backwards may fix this.
- Most characters will attack a werewolf on sight, even werebears. Exceptions include other werewolves, M’aiq the Liar, and members of factions, as well as followers currently in service. Eorlund Gray-Mane will publicly defend the Dragonborn, if the transformation occurs in Whiterun.confirmation needed
- If someone sees you transforming, they will recognize them as a werewolf, even in human form, and may consider them an outsider or attack on sight.
- If you transform back to human and you have lost more HP than your base health, you can die from the transformation as your health goes negative.
- If the you are seen transforming, they will incur a 1000 Gold bounty, and most characters will attack them.
