Werewolf History – The evolution of lycanthropy, from folklore to legendary curses.
Incorporating Werewolves into Your Campaigns – Ideas for integrating werewolves into any world, setting, or adventure.
Werewolves are not one unified force—three dominant factions define the struggle for supremacy:
The Moonfang Concord – A disciplined, ancient order of werewolves, seeing themselves as chosen warriors of the Moon.
The Ravagers – Brutal warbands that wield weapons alongside their fangs, driven by conquest and savagery.
The Hollowborne – Cursed, undead werewolves, forever trapped between life and death, searching for an end to their torment.
Each faction has its own history, goals, and legendary leaders, shaping the war that rages in the shadows.
A full bestiary of werewolves, ranging from minor threats to legendary figures:
Moonfang Concord – 24 NPCs (CR 1/8 to CR 10), with 5 bosses (CR 12 to CR 20).
Ravagers – 27 NPCs (CR 1/8 to CR 10), with 5 bosses (CR 12 to CR 20).
Hollowborne – 28 NPCs (CR 1/8 to CR 10), with 5 bosses (CR 12 to CR 20).
Each werewolf comes with combat tactics, faction lore, and thematic abilities, ensuring dynamic encounters.
From cursed relics to sacred artifacts, this grimoire expands the magic of lycanthropy:
Weapons of the Hunt – Silvered weapons, enchanted moonsteel, and artifacts of werewolf slayers.
Gifts of the Moon – Items that grant werewolf-like abilities to mortals—or enhance true lycanthropes.
