When do i become a werewolf skyrim

Additionally, werewolves cannot pick locks or loot while transformed, so players with a thief build should take note. NPCs will also be hostile to players while transformed, so Beast Form shouldn't be used in populated areas. Furthermore, those in werewolf form are relegated only to a third-person camera, which could significantly throw off gameplay for The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim players who prefer the first-person view.

You can find the Companions in Whiterun inside The Circle. Speak to the various NPCs there to join the guild, starting their main quest. One of the Companion's main quests, "The Silver Hand," is where players will get to contract Lycanthropy. During the quest, it's revealed that the high-ranking members of the Companions all have Lycanthropy. They bestow you with their "gift" before you storm a Silver Hand stronghold. Once you receive Lycanthropy, you'll have it permanently unless you perform a certain ritual at the end of the Companions' quest.

There is only one way to remove your werewolf blood in Skyrim, and it only becomes available at the very end of the Companions' main questline. If you want to become a vampire or vampire lord, you'll need to purge your werewolf blood first.

Throughout the second half of the Companions' quest, you'll be tasked with decapitating the heads of the Glenmorii witches. These heads can be burned during the Companions' final quest, "Glory of the Dead," to cleanse Kodlak Whitemane's Lycanthropy.

You can use one of these heads on yourself at the end of the quest to remove the "gift" from yourself. When inside the Underforge, tell Skjor you're ready to start the ritual. When you come to, you'll be able to turn into a werewolf at will but only once per day by selecting "Beast Form" under the "Powers" sub-section of the "Magic" menu.

Time to test out your new suit. Aela instructs you to exterminate a nearby camp occupied by the Silver Hand, a group of werewolf hunters. Head for Gallows Rock; Aela will accompany you. Inside Gallows Rock , carve up the easily-killed members of the Silver Hand. Wolf form isn't necessary, but it's fun. Also, eating bodies of the fallen Silver Hand members in wolf form, obviously heals you and lets you stay in wolf form for longer, so chow down as necessary. Find and kill the leader of the Silver Hand, Krev the Skinner.

He's accompanied by archers, so you'll probably want to kill them first. Use the Sound of Blood howl if necessary: It causes your foes to run away in fear, making for easier pickings. When Krev is gone, talk to Aela to finish the quest. If you like, search Skjor for a decent suit of wolf armor and a solid one-handed sword. All the Benefits of Being a Werewolf: Increased health in human form.

Immunity to all diseases, including vampirism.
