| rdfs:comment | - The Old Worlders still live in fear of Werewolves, the shape-changers that haunted the forests of old - and perhaps still linger there today. Werecreatures are basically Humans capable of changing into the form of another creature, usually a Wolf. In Norsca, these creatures are not hunted and persecuted, as they are elsewhere, but are often encouraged to join the Beserkers in battle. In Human form, a Werecreature is no different from a standard Human and may not even be aware of his true nature.
- Werecreatures can summon their brethren for help (rats, jackals and any type of wolf, respectively). This will give the message "The werecreature summons help!", or "You feel hemmed in." if you cannot see any of the new monsters. If you are a werecreature, you can do the same with the #monster extended command. The summoned monsters appear as pets and will remain tame if your lycanthropy is cured. Werecreatures will respect Elbereth only while in animal form and are immune to drain level. They are particularly vulnerable to silver weapons.

Werecreatures will respect Elbereth only while in animal form and are immune to drain level. They are particularly vulnerable to silver weapons. Werecreatures are considered human for the purposes of sacrificing. If you are a human, eating the corpse of a werecreature counts as cannibalism. They always start with either a dagger, spear, or knife.
