Message: <blockquote data-quote="Sunseeker" data-source="post: 6808675">5e has a very minor template that gives some very minor buffs, but I think it assumes the possibility of control.I followed the design of death saves and went with this:DC 18 Con check to avoid infection (I'm handling it as a magical disease).You feel kinda bad until the first full moon.DC 18 Will to resist transformation and retain your mind.-Taking damage while under the full moon invokes a save.-Killing an enemy while under the full moon invokes a save.If you fail, you run off and become an NPC for the night.  I'm not going to make the party fight one of their own, that's kinda a jerk move; at least not the first night.If you fail 3 times before you succeed, you become an NPC permanently.  If you succeed 3 times before you fail, you get the basic template and control over your condition...to an extent.  Taking damage and killing still trigger a transformation check, lower DC though.Also: people generally hate you.</blockquote>
