I made a pure melee character and I thought I woild use the Companions to earn a bit of money. I uad already done the quest line with another character, andI thought I had reached the Silver Hand quest because I spoke specifically with Aela. Now I find out the game leads you to that always, no matter who you speak to.

Now, the thing is I dont want to be a werewolf with this character, much less harbinger. But if I dont become a werewolf not only do I not advance in the guild (which is ok), but nobody offers me any jobs! I thought I could do them indefinitely and live as a mercenary.

So the whole infinite radiant quest thing only applies when you finish a quest line?

You could maybe just do it and cure yourself? That's the only thing I can think of. Sorry man.
