Preview (0.x). Everything below works and has been tested in game, but the mod is still evolving, and settings or balance may change.

Hunt wolves, collect their pheromones and brew an essence at the mead cauldron. Drink it, and answer the call of the pack: you become a she-wolf for 45 minutes.

How it works

• Wolf Pheromone Drops: wolves you kill have a 50 % chance to drop 1 to 5 of them.
• The essence: 50 drops make a Wolf Pheromone Essence at the mead cauldron.
• The transformation: drinking the essence turns you into a she-wolf for 45 minutes. There is no way back early. Logging out does not end it, and neither does dying: you respawn as a she-wolf and can still recover your tombstone.

As a she-wolf

• Body and marking: you get the wolf's own model and animations, with a brown lock of hair on the forehead so friends can tell you from wild wolves.
• Fighting: all your damage is multiplied by 1.5, and your attacks are quicker than a wild wolf's.
• Left mouse button: a three-strike combo, like the game's weapons: bite left, bite right, then she rears up and rakes with her claws (stronger, wider, staggers).
• Middle mouse button (secondary attack): a hunting pounce. She leaps up to 4.5 m onto the nearest enemy in front of her and bites as she lands (double damage).
• Dodge: the game's dodge keys (block + jump, crouch + jump, or the dodge key) make her leap aside. She is invulnerable at the start of the leap, just like the game's roll, and it uses the same stamina and Dodge skill.
• Speed: you run 40 % faster.
• Instinct: living creatures glow within 45 m. Red means hostile, orange means animal, and blue means player or tamed creature.
• Howl: press H for a long howl that every player hears from far away. You raise your head to the sky and open your jaws.
• Food: you can eat raw meat.
• Wolf interface: your vision is framed with fur and turns red as your health drops. The round emblem shows your remaining time as a ring of chevrons, a line above it reminds you of your pounce, dodge and howl keys, and windows get a black and gold look.
• Pups: stay close to a tamed, fed and calm wolf, and hearts appear now and then. A litter is then on the way, and after 3 minutes 1 or 2 tamed wolf cubs are born at your feet. If the transformation ends first, they are born just before you turn back.
• Collar and leash: another player can put a collar and leash on you with the Use key. They lead the way and you follow, and the same key removes it. If they go through a portal, you go with them. The leather leash hangs in a gentle curve between the collar and their hand.
• Paws, not hands: you can't equip anything or use weapons, tools, workbenches, forges or cooking stations, and you can't handle objects. You can still open doors, sleep, recover your tombstone, pick items up, and pet or call a tamed animal so it follows you.
