[QUOTE="Theroc, post: 4893050, member: 83115"] Erwin, after looking at things I've determined that a Werewolf druid just isn't workable mechanically. But I did get some interesting advice in the rules area about an alternative method to keep similar flavor. Rather than being a human or anything, my character would be a Wolf who was affected by a druid's "Awaken" spell, making him a "Magical Beast" and giving him humanoid intelligence, allowing him to pursue the druid's path his own. This is rather out of the box, but I would still be starting at level 1... and perhaps as he adventures(and gains the wildshape class feature) he learns to take a more human appearance to interact with people normally. To avoid him being killed outright, I thought perhaps this druid and his animal companion would both act as if he was either one of the Ranger's Animal companions or as pets of one or the other of the players. Opinions? If this isn't viable, I'll either be playing a human druid, or I'll be changing classes to stick with the werewolf aspect. [/QUOTE]
