    Argyle Keep Updates

    Tupoun has been busy making some additional tweaks and changes to Argyle Forest and the keep.

    New Racial Template: WEREWOLF!

    Yes that's right, PCs can now become Werewolves (of the Caul Clan)... but before excitement overcomes this will be a closed and selective template!

    While there are many types of lycanthropes in the realms, Werewolves are by far the most common, especially in Icewind Dale. The legends of the Great White Werewolf betray a strain of the curse unique to Icewind Dale, where white-furred werewolves are especially vicious and terrifying.

    Template: ECL 8

    Human Form

    +2 AC
    4 STR, 2 dex, 4 con, 2 wis
    +5 survival, spot, listen
    10 DR cold
    Immunity: Disease, Immunity: Poison
    Tracking, Scent, Darkvision

    Transformed (appearance changes) (Bonuses / feats IN ADDITION TO) Once per day ability

    PC weaponry is usable (no creature claws)
    8 STR, 4 dex, 4 con, 2 wis
    3 Regen
    10 dr/silver
    Immunity: Mind-Affecting
    50% speed boost

    To qualify, a PC must be bitten by a Werewolf who is a member of the Caul Clan. Also, PCs should have a tendency toward evil after the change (not to say you HAVE to be evil, but you're more predisposed to it).

    Please don't take this as an opportunity to critique the template build, we may make adjustments in the future if we don't like the balance but this is currently the final info.
    The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.

                    They can ask, but they absolutely will not be made. Have more faith in the staff.

                      ... *quietly trashcans werepyre ideas*

                      (just kidding; I'm as happy to know both templates together are a no-no. )
                      But please, keep one thing in mind for me. What have you become when even nightmares fear you?

                          Hmmm I remember Elandra getting bitten by a werewolf some time back...

                          Can the lore / background / stats be sheared or is it too soon?

                          Alexandra: Ever faithful (just shy of a Zealot)
                          Yodglum: May Kossuth's flame light your way and burn those in it!
                          Ash: Dusty old miner of still looking for the "mother load" on Exigo's stag

                              Looks great guys. Since the update was put in, the portals have officially been deactivated. So is the banner drop point been relocated? Also Myrkulite Players do not have access to their temple, by any means at all. I understand there are very few, but never the less they have no access to the faction gear.

                              Otherwise I am excited to explore the new keep and see the first player werewolf.
