D&D General Revised Lycanthropy

I think with those save DCs, and this:

…you’re gonna have a lot of lycanthropes running around your campaign.

Yes, it’s meant to be a significant problem for the party. You could tone all the DCs down if you want it to be less dangerous. Or make it easier to cure, I guess.

And a lot of angry non-contageous shapeshifters...

They’re contagious

Have you thought about Nightfell? This may be a good solution.

I had the same issue with black text in my Monk Handbook post, I do not know why the forum sometimes does that.

How strange. Well, I think it should be fixed now.

No, I wrote my own homebrew mechanic to work the way I wanted it to, and I thought I’d share it for anyone who might be interested. If you don’t like it that’s fine, you’re welcome to use this Nightfell product, or your own homebrew, or the RAW lycanthropy rules, or whatever you want.

That’s so bizarre! Thanks for letting me know, I’ll keep working on it,

People seem very concerned about the DCs, that’s good feedback, I could tone them all down by 5. I’m just concerned that if I do the new moon saves will be gestural at best.

Spelling mistake aside, I was actually referring to all the NPC characters in the game world who posess wildshape or its eqivalent, which I do not believe is contagious.

My hypothetical question is: how do the groups of non-contagious shapechangers relate to contagious (and out-of-control) ones. (Plot hook material?)

Any thought of importing the 3.x Control Shapechange feat? (It was a proficiency in Night Howlers IIRC.)

I like that you have provided a non-magical way to evade the curse, it's a nice touch, and brings skill use in.
