📋 About This Mod

OVERVIEW

Add's a new selectable Background in Character Creation. 'Werewolf', characters with this background gain access to a Werewolf Shapeshift that comes with it's own progression line, unlocking new Feats and Spells as you level up separate from your class.

BALANCE DISCLAIMER

As the Lycanthropy progression is tied to your starting background selection you aren't locked into any specific class or playstyle. I've tried my best to balance this but it's nigh impossible with the combinations of class and lycanthropy abilities there can possibly be.
