Werebears, wereboars, etc?

Post by Svogrehl »

I don't see much prospect for anyone doing much of anything with the lycanthropy system in Skyrim. Mostly because of how it works there. Oblivion seems to be more flexible with it, which is ironic since lycanthropy wasn't even an official feature.. anyways I was wondering if there were any mods out there that add werebears, wereboars, werecrocs (not the daedroth BS) or some such? I've always wanted to play as one of these obscure monsters and it would really get me back into Oblivion since it will be a long time before I get Dawnguard for Skyrim. Basically any mod that adds non-wolf lycanthropes to the game. I am curious.

When I read 'wereboar' I instantly imagined someone morphing a large belly, hair, tusks, and strange feet. Then standing there depressed about how lame their transformation is.

What I really would like to see is a MOD that changes the werewolf transformations so they look different for every race. Like make an orc's more like a weird baldish, tusk wereworlf. A Khajit turning into a different form of khajit (Pahmar or senche). An argonian turning into an erm... er... big... armadillo thing?
I used to be an adventurer like you... then I got a real job... then I got made redundant... then I became an adventurer again... but now I just kill cats.

It's stated that having names for each combination of the seven known disease-strains with man, mer, and beast race would be a huge pain in the ass.
