[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 6095830, member: 92511"] Pretty much all of this...just to recap: 1) You don't get to play the wolf form...in any way (i.e. Even if you say "Yeah, but I'll play him as a rampaging murderous beast!" Nope. Sorry. I'd probably even make you leave the room so you don't have any knowledge of what your character does during that time.) 2) You don't get to decide/dictate what you do or who you like while in wolf form while the DM is playing your character. 3) You are the recipient and carrier of a curse-disease. Whether your character immediately knows this or not (I assume it would come out at some point of RP), still not desirable. Personally, as a DM [if I were the DM], I would play it to the hilt...Have rampaging nights, slay villagers, waking up with no memory of what happened. Party gets hired to take on/slay the rampaging beast that has cursed the town...Party finds out it is their pal...Now what?! Just as an aside, I would make the "turns Chaotic Evil" thing only apply while in wolf/werewolf mode. No "Detect Evil" is going to work on the PC while he's his normal self. He's still whatever his normal alignment is when he's "himself." I don't believe the rules stipulate this...but that's how I roll with it. [/QUOTE]
