Elder Scrolls Online Release Date: Werewolves Of Tamriel Receive More Attention? ESO Blog Discusses Lycnathropy

Elder Scrolls Online has released a blog about the Werewolves of Tamriel, bringing more attention to the lycnathropy within the game.

"Feared throughout Tamriel, werewolves surrender to their primal nature, roaming the wilds in pursuit of prey. Confrontations with these lycanthropes are dangerous; they can spread the disease Sanies Lupinus, which turns the infected into one of the bloodthirsty pack if left untreated," the Elder Scrolls Online blog writes.

"Werewolves are strongly associated with the Daedric Prince Hircine. It is said that he lays claim to their souls, eternally leading them on wild courses through the Hunting Grounds, his Oblivion realm."

The post also discusses the features within the game that allow werewolves to transform themselves.

Many people credit Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim as one of the best role-playing games in its genre, but Elder Scrolls Online will improve its character-creation system, which could have had more options, VentureBeat.com writes.
