The primary focus of this pack is obviously the ability to transform into a werewolf and there are four different ways you can do this. The first is to make a werewolf in create-a-sim. You can design a werewolf of any age, and they will appear in game with the appropriate occult needs. You can also customize both human and werewolf forms. The other ways to transform are activated through gameplay.

There are three variations of becoming a werewolf through live mode. Firstly, you can befriend a werewolf and ask to be turned. Secondly, you can be turned by a werewolf in a rampage, if you consent or not. Finally, two werewolf parents will have a werewolf baby, although their traits may be dormant. A baby with one werewolf parent has a 50 percent chance of being a werewolf.

9 Join A Pack

As a werewolf you can choose to join one of two packs, The Moonwood Collective or The Wildfangs. Both packs have a hangout area in the world where you can meet pack members, and engage in different activities. They each have a different focus and expect different behaviour from pack members. If you obey the rules you can rise up the ranks.

The Moonwood Collective wants to break the stigma of being a werewolf. They expect you to be friendly and well-behaved, especially in beast form. Alternatively, you can feed your wolf side by exploring, sparring with pack mates, and increasing your number, through whatever means you like.If neither option appeals you can simply become a lone wolf.
