custom lycanthrope

[Rakusia]

okay had a scene in kings castle player wanted to bump uglies with a lady of the court. grabbed someone who had a rather hairy part of their anatomy. king later warned there were people in court too good to be true. this lady had a super high charisma and was super attractive. thought a certain lycan form gave boost to cha. it doesn't. should I just drop this side story or should I try to make a custom lycan template to attach to the npc?

The Lycanthrope rules in the Monster Manual pretty much state that you can develop a Lycanthropy form for any carnivore/predator. It also suggests that the traits of the form, Alignment in specific, are tied to popular perception of the creature.

So look in Races of the Wild for an Anthropomorphic that includes Charisma boost, then use that as the foundationfor your custom Lycanthrope.

Cat people come to mind: +4 Dex, +2 Charisma. And isn't there a certain genre of popular fiction that focuses on Cat-girls?

While lycanthropy contributes to stats, and the monster manual has pre-generated lycanthropes, you're still adding the template to a base creature who, as any individual, can have unique stats.

A charming lady happens to be a were-cat. That's cool.

I created a were-squirrel NPC once for a campaign. Hilarious. Have fun!

How very Doctor Moreau.

That's awesome, I can't picture it. Dire creatures are spikey and scary and such, I can't imagine that on a squirrel. That's like a dire bunny or dire Koala bear.
