when to retreat. Thyrs are normally solitary hunters, seeking
their prey in the trackless hills and forests. Some have
adapted to the marshy lands of the coastal valleys, where
they contend with the native marsh fiends.
Werwulf
Werwulfs are men who can turn into a ravening wolf by
some magical ability. Some berserks have this ability,
some men are cursed and must take the form of the beast
at specified intervals (not always the light of the full
moon), and some men are blessed by the gods with the
ability. Some men can take the form of bears, boars or
other wild beasts. A werwulf is usually immune to nonmagical
weapons, their flesh and bones reknitting the
round after they are wounded. To kill a werwulf requires
magic of one form or another: magical weapons, rune
magic or spells, or divine intervention.
Cursed werwulfs may pass the curse on after their death,
though not through their bite. Research and burial precautions
like those for a scucca are required. Any werwulf’s
bite is a carrier for disease, however, and it can
rarely be cured by Natural healing or First aid: healing
magic is required. Men bitten by a werwulf (if not savaged
and killed outright) become Unhealthy ( Pendragon.
page 182), suffering chills, uncontrollable shivering, and a
great thirst. Chirurgery will keep the character from getting
worse, but it cannot stop the infection. Bitten characters
suffer Deterioration or Aggravation ( Pendragon
page 183) as normal.
