Description
Be both Werewolf AND Vampire and with options and flexibility to play the way you want.
Compatible with most Vampire, Werewolf and Lich mods (and any other mod).
Simple to use - just install and play as normal.
You can even Vampire or Werewolf shape-shift abilities on your NON Vampire/Werewolf play through!
You are not a mere mortal, you have Dragon blood within you granting you many strengths - the ability to absorb Dragon souls, and mastery over the Thu'um.
Your Dragon blood also allows you to carry both gifts of Hircine and Molag Bal simultaneously - allowing you to be both a Vampire and a Werewolf at the same time... well it does now anyway.
There are no special actions or spells required, just obtain the gifts/taints in-game as you normally would - except now they won't override each other.
Whilst this mod is installed, you will have an active spell effect showing your Vampire, Werewolf, Lich, and Hybrid status..

📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust with 5,751 endorsements and 285k downloads.
- Opens up hybrid builds that most mods don't allow.
- Works with other vampire/werewolf mods, so you can stack your favorites.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2020 — might have issues with the latest Skyrim version or newer mods.
- Hybrid mechanics can be tricky to balance; expect some jankiness.
For Skyrim players who want to break the mold and play as both a vampire and werewolf without conflicts. Also great for mod enthusiasts who use Undeath and want to add lycanthropy on top. Skip if you prefer pure vanilla or don't want to fiddle with compatibility patches.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Use a mod manager like Vortex or MO2 to avoid overwriting files and to manage load order easily.
- Check the mod's posts section for compatibility patches and load order advice from other users.
- If you're using other vampire/werewolf overhauls, make sure to load True Hybrid after them to ensure its scripts take priority.
