Infection

When a humanoid loses more than 1/2 of their max hit points from the natural attacks of a werebeast (ex: bite or claw), they must Save vs Poison or become infected with therianthropy.

  • The disease takes 2d12 days to fully infect, with signs of infection appearing halfway through.
  • Humanoids become the same type of werebeasts (and are typically run by the referee, at least while transformed).
