Werewolf PC's

[draemen]

So my DM is allowing me to create a Lawful Good Werewolf character, and quite frankly I'm having trouble understanding how making one works.

On page 196 of the bestiary manual is states that Lycanthropes get +2 Wis and -2 Cha in all forms, and +2 Str/Con in animal and hybrid forms. Yet on page 198 it shows a human form Str 17, Dex 13 and Con 14, and in Hybrid Str 19, Dex 15, Con 17, which means the stat gains were +2, +2, and +3 respectively. So I'm not sure what to go with and neither is he.

Now I've made a D&D 3.5 Werewolf PC and it was more clear on how it worked.

So does anyone have any insight on how this would actually work?

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer

The hybrid form gets its ability scores from the base creature's form or the base animal's form whichever is higher. A wolf has a CON 15 and that is why the hybrid form has a CON 17. The modifier to the score is correct at +2. The wolf also has a DEX 15.
