Wereowls are solitary lycanthropes that are calm and intelligent, even in bestial form. In humanoid form, a wereowl appears to have a somewhat rounded face and very large eyes that rarely close. Wereowls gain the ability to fly in their hybrid and owl forms, and most prefer to fight in hybrid form, peppering enemies with arrows or slashing foes that draw too near with their wicked talons. Wereowls live in thick forests and rarely pass on their curse to other humanoids, as every new wereowl is competition for territory and food, though some wereowls have been known to form conclaves dedicated to protecting their territories or some other shared goal. Characters as Wereowls The character gains a Dexterity of 15 if his or her score isn't already higher, and a +1 bonus to AC while in owl or hybrid form (from natural armour). Attack and damage rolls for the natural weapons are based on Strength.
