The Order of the Lycan is a proud order of blood hunters who undergo “The Taming”, a ceremonial inflicting of lycanthropy from a senior member. These hunters then use their abilities to harness the power of the monster they harbor without losing themselves to it. Through intense honing of one’s own willpower, combined with the secrets of the order’s blood magic rituals, members learn to control and unleash their hybrid form for short periods of time. Enhanced physical prowess, unnatural resilience, and razor sharp claws make these warriors a terrible foe to any evil that crosses their path. Yet, no training is perfect, and without care and complete focus, even the greatest of blood hunters can temporarily lose themselves to the bloodlust.

Update: 1.5 changes!

1) Changed Blood Lust to be more in line with concentration checks, and be a little more dangerous when taking bigger hits of damage! I mean, whats the point of this option if you're afraid of losing control every now and again. ;) However, when you do go berserk, you do regain control after the attack action, allowing a Bonus Action and the remainder of your movement to be of use that turn.

2) Feral Precision changed to Beastly Precision (just for my own titling preference), and now increases unarmed attacked by half of your proficiency bonus (to allow a progression on par with magical weapons of a +3 variety at higher levels).

3) Removed Improved Resilient Hide, as the resistance element required the PC to choose a rite that would many times be up against foes resistant or immune to it, lessening the fun of the feature. Instead, I've introduced Lycan Regeneration to replace it, which is largely more useful and very much in theme with the Hybrid form.

4) Blood Curse of the Howl has been improved to affect any number of targets you choose in 30 feet, only it causes fear on a failed save, and stun on failing by 5 or more. Amplifying increases the radius to 60 ft.

Just a note: You CAN still use weapons in your Hybrid form, so feel free to switch to weapons/claws for whichever the battle at hand calls for. :)
