📋 About This Mod
Taken from the original mod page that can be found Here
A mod put together originally by Derok, with the help of other modders.
This is a slightly modified version of the original.
The change I made was to add a follower, Cobolt. He is found near the bandit camp as you flee Helgen, down the path on the left.
Other edits I made to the files were slight texture fixes on the bodies, or some armor/body issues I noticed.
Thanks and credits to Derok and the additional modders who helped bring his mod into existence.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-tested port with 121 endorsements and over 6,000 downloads.
- Straightforward race addition—no complex scripts or dependencies.
- Fills a niche for players who want to start as a werewolf from level 1.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2022, so it may not be fully compatible with the latest game patches or other mods.
- As a port, it might carry over old bugs or quirks from the original LE version.
- Limited to the race itself—no custom perks, transformations, or werewolf overhaul included.
For Skyrim players who want to roleplay as a werewolf from the very beginning without needing to join the Companions. It's also for modders who want a simple base to build upon. Skip if you're looking for a full werewolf overhaul with new mechanics—this is just the race.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure to place this mod in your load order after any mods that alter race records to avoid conflicts.
- If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement—manual installs can miss the esp.
- Consider pairing with a werewolf overhaul mod to enhance the experience, but test compatibility first.
