How to treat Lycanthropy ? : V

Hello Everybody !

When you transform into a Were-Creature , basically all of your inventory is thrown away.
How do you deal with it ?

( For example , after I transform back , I come to the place of my transformation in order to "take back my stuff" , not that I played with a Were-Creature lately.. )

Look in your inventory?

I don't think you understood what I mean.

I don't think you understood what I mean.

I'm not sure what you mean,you don't lose anything from your inventory.

So you are making a suggestion, rather than a statement?

Ugh.
No , I know that the inventory stays.
I'm talking here from a Role-Playing perspective.

So, you want the game to take all your gear, and put it in a chest somewhere that you have to go find after you transform back?

If you mean from an Rp stand point all of your equipment gets cast away when you transform, ie your armor drops off of you in place as you change. Then yes I would return to the same place that I transformed, but I don't take the Rping that far. I simply open my inventory and re-equip all my gear

But yes if I took the Rping as far as you I would try to remember where I transformed to get my stuff :tops:

I think he's saying that when he returns to human form, he goes back to the spot where he transformed, rp'ing as though that is where his gear is.

Ahh I see now.
Good question because when you transform you really don't have anyway to carry anything.
Going back to the place of transformation would make sence.

This would be a GREAT topic over on the spoilers/cheats forum page. Look under Wolf Den... Great Werewolf suggestions and they love this sort of question, please check it out.. HOWLLLLL

NO !
I'm not talking about mechanics or actual game-play here.
When you transform , all of your items are thrown away right ? ( NOT really , but theoretically ).
So I'm talking about that , how from a Role-Playing perspective you treat the transformation.

You might find that some people would hate this....first time I did the werewolf thing, I spent a fruitless and frustrating half an hour searching around the countryside in-game, and on the internet, only to find that my gear was in my inventory.

I treat my transformation as Deadric magic more then a physical thing. I almost always have Azura's Star by time I become a werewolf so my head cannon is my gear is stored there till I need it. Also works as a reason for having the amount of weapons I might carry.

Phew , finally people understood me.

That's an interesting idea , that's what I want to discuss here people.

that's classic :rofl:

Sorry for laughing at you :blush:

But it did almost make coffee come out of my nose

It is an interesting concept but personally I would go about it your way.

» Tue Mar 19, 2013 8:22 am

I can only imagine us, going back and picking up all the keys we had in our inventory

» Tue Mar 19, 2013 2:11 am

Just tried to make up the most possible scenario.

Its not for everyone I'm sure. It was my way of meeting the game half way for handling the Beast transformation and usage the way I would have designed it. Not that I have much knowledge of game design.

you return only to say.......Awwww man :facepalm:

Just tried to make up the most possible scenario. :smile:

I like your idea :yes:

Only thing that would keep me from trying it is the length of my hunting trips, some times they last for about a month (in game). There's no way I'll be able to remember where I changed after a month, hell I wouldn't remember after a 2 minute run :tongue:

There's nothing wrong with your way either, it's just not for me. :foodndrink:

Ew, furry dogs :tongue:

» Tue Mar 19, 2013 3:16 pm

I think I understand. Maybe.

Just pretend that due to the influence of Hircine the transformation into a werewolf involves, uh, more 'magic' than it being considered just a disease. When you transform, everything on you changes along with you.
