[QUOTE="Rechan, post: 3872474, member: 54846"] On the one hand, I agree. On the other hand, White Wolf is very popular giving you the options of playing these monsters. And as someone who loves playing kobolds, and has had a LN True Werewolf DMPC in a party before (because they had no tank), I don't think it's a problem. But, like playing a tri-keen, when you become Monster X, you need to understand that your priorities, your psychology has now shifted, and you need to act differently. For the inflicted werewolf, being inflicted [i]shouldn't be fun[/i]. It's not "Hey cool I'm a werewolf now, I can go kick butt!" It's "When I lose control I become CE and not under my own volition, attacking things savagely, including my party and any innocents in the vicinity." It's the job of the DM to make that seriousness stick. (Were I a sadistic DM, I'd have one of the PCs black out and end up infecting someone who will be a foe in the future). [/QUOTE]
