Augmented human fare

Follows the mother between most pseudohumans. Outside classification, it varies. Can spread therianthropy through biting & contaminating blood.

Werehyenas can shift form between "human," hyena, & mixed forms. Each form has advantages: "human" form blends with society, hyenaform has all the advantages the animal has (powerful jaws, spiritual connections, haunting laughs), & the mixed form combines the two.

Each werehyena is born under a specific full moon (one of the three) that determines when they will be susceptible to lunacy. On the full moon, an uncontrolled, berserk transformation takes place, usually to the mixed form. During these periods, they savagely attack & spread their disease.

During other periods, they can control the shift, except during the new moon phase of their particular moon.

Werehyenas have heigtened speed and senses, and a potent drive for thievery. They are very resourceful and tend to be very jocular, in accordance with their nature. They also have the power of the evil eye, causing bad luck and injury to any who fall under it. Anyone cursed with their evil eye must use prayer to alleviate it.

If a wound is not made by silver, it will heal quickly. They are extremely resistant to disease & poisons.

Werehyenas live on the savannas and drink, fuck, and play. They are not nice folk, but they are hard partiers. They are dirty, uncouth, and coarse. They often have day jobs as manual laborers.
