This doesn't really relate to Skyrim as your character technically doesn't age anyway, but are werewolves immortal like vampires? Or are they just mortal? Or do they live extended lifespans?

I think they live normal lives as human, but we still don't know.

Spoiler

For the Lycanthropy cure quest, a werewolf within the circle wants to cure himself. He fears in his age he might die and with werewolf blood running through his veins, Shor might not accept an animal into Sovengarde, as most werecreatures go to Hircine's realm to live for an eternity. He prefers to go and celebrate in fellowship in the nord halls. So we are led to believe they do age, but it's still a little vague. He could of been infected at an old age...

[Dawn Farrell]

Yes..It is one thing to have your worshippers and creations fear you...But quite another to have their respect and loyalty...Hircine shows himself to be a true father to all of his children...

Definitely, despite his urge for the Hunt and the way he does it, for what he does care for he does try and attempt to give them an education in rights and wrongs.

Okay thanks because I thought they lived extended lives since they supposedly have a fast regeneration rate.

I dont see what all the complaining is about. You guys say they arent werewolves cause you can change anytime. Well last time i checked, vampires dont have 3 stages of vampirism, and they cant just svck blood and go into the sun, ever hear dracula say oh lemme get me some blood then we will hit up the beach? So why isnt everybody complaining there are no real vampires? Neither are real so they go by the rules of which ever fiction they are apart of. If elder scrolls werewolves breathed fire and had wings and flew around they are still werewolves, elder scrolls werewolves.

[Sandeep Khatkar]

now from what i know and maybe have seen....they are cool.
the transformation is very well executed, now the way you fight is well a little iffy but there's nothing wrong with that, you get to eat people. The finishers are cool i.e. throwing your enemy on the ground and clawing there body up. You just plain look cool, and yes you run on all fours......very fast....and that is all i know of them right now.....

[Lexy Corpsey]

Khajiit's are Beast!
Literally

OT : Yeah they are cool, i just hope they don't forget the Curse part to Lycanthropy, there should be more downsides than Weakness to Silver Weapons and Noob Silver fists trying to kill you ._.

Did you not notice the other +5 Werewolf threads around here?

[Dale Johnson]

i don't mind if there is a curse or not...as long as the companions give mea it i'll be fine. ah going into a town forgetting i'm a werewolf...it will happen. eventually.

[R.I.P]

Did you not notice the other +5 Werewolf threads around here?

yes...and i believe i posted in like 3 of them.

[Nicole Mark]

While in werewolf form can u still shout?

First, I think the werewolves are awesome. From what someone said on page 3 of this thread, it's obviously NOT just an awesome button - although, what's wrong with an awesome button? I like awesome buttons. You people DO know that there's a dragon shout that makes you invincible for a period of time, right? Now THAT is an awesome button! And by the way, since it's a shout, you'll be able to do it WAY more often than once a day.

But more to the point of the post I'm replying to. Look, I've complained about vampires on this forum a whole lot. In fact, I've even written little mini RP posts about how I fully intend to ignite a war between Lycans and Vampires, and how I'm going to name my character Lucian and kill all the jellyfish of the night. Why do I hate vampires so much? I don't! I actually think vampires are awesome! I think the new expansion pack for Infamous (available exclusively on PS3) looks amazing. You get to be a vampire and attack people who are just walking around and stuff, etc. I love vampire movies too.

But what I absolutely HATE is the Oblivion vampire. Why? Because it's a joke. Their power doesn't come from blood, it comes from their THIRST for blood. Drink blood, get weaker, don't drink blood, get stronger. Not only that, but in a game where you can join an Assassin's guild, a Thieves' Guild, or just kill random people on your own just for sport, for some reason, the only people vampires can attack are those who are sleeping, and no one ever dies from it. Ever.

That's why I call them the jellyfish of the night.

And don't get me started about the stupidity of ruining all your hard work in the character creation by turning your character into a wrinkled old prune with pretty pink eyes. Hello Kitty is scarier looking.

And by all accounts, vampires work in exactly the same way in Skyrim as they did in Oblivion. I'm SO upset by this that I will kill ALL vampires in Skyrim as a protest against this stupidity.

> ever hear dracula say oh lemme get me some blood then we will hit up the beach?

No, because Dracula could go hit up the beach whenever he wanted. The "burns up in sunlight" shtick was introduced later (by the movie Nosferatu).

I'm pretty sure you can't use any form of magic. And to shout you need to be able to say the words and lycans can't speak.... so no I don't it work. Plus that would be too OP if they could.

one did, he said "good enough" as he slaughtered the last opponent.

If everyone you fed on died you'd depopulate the world pretty fast and break the game. It's just not practical.

Lycanthropes can talk now. You will see one talk in Hircine's quest.

No, the shout effect is replaced by a werewolf roar called "Song of blood" which can scare away enemies from you.

[Austin Suggs]

That's too bad I wish enemies ran towards me. What self respecting werewolf wants the enemies to flee

[kevin ball]

Those with the wolf blood don't get rested bonuses. Sorta neat little penalty for choosing to become a werewolf.

I can kill people with a sword. Why can't a vampire KILL people??? It's not much to ask for.

Enemies in Skyrim are sometimes hard to kill...especially if they have silver weapons. Imagine five dudes surrounding you, you would be overwhelmed in no time.

[FirDaus LOVe farhana]

oh and you can also turn into it whenever you want too.

Meh.

ALready a Werewolf thread here http://www.gamesas.com/index.php?/topic/1252335-more-stuff-about-werewolves-merged-threads/

[CxvIII]

i don't believe the third person forced perspective thing that is going around here. I saw a video where the player was in first person, and stated that because he was a werewolf and so large he couldn't fit through the entrance of a cave properly. I know it was first person because I quickly left the video to avoid spoilers.

[Micah Judaeah]

Lycanthropes can talk now.

What? Sorry what? Serously WHAAAAT?!?
