Where are the wild werewolves?

Post » Tue Dec 13, 2011 2:36 pm

So I have not come across a single group of wild werewolves or even any lonewolves so to speak, if anyone has seen any in there travels I would love to be pointed in there direction. Something else that I have noticed is that there are not many vampires in the game either. One more thing relatd to this topic is the book (Immortal Blood) have any of you read this book if so do you agree that you would love Bethesda to add a part 2 that goes into detail of the vampires from the other countries.

There are vampires around, but yes they're kinda rare. The only werewolf I encounter randomly is the guy for Hircine's quest if you help him survive the quest. Else wise the only ones you really find are locked up in certain places...

This really should be in the spoilers section.

Spoiler
You only find werewolves locked in cages while doing Companion's guild or doing quests for hircine

This is definitely something that needs to be added to a dlc. Werewolves are supposed to be running throughout the wild but in game, there are none in the wild. This was a HUGE disappointment for me when I learned this. Why are there vampires throughout the wild but no werewolves?

I'd rather not get demolished when making a new character.

Sadly there aren't any.

Should be a rare few that roam deep in the woods at night

Spoiler
The Silver Hand has taken matters into their own hands and has seen to it that werewolves are afraid to roam around in plain sight.

I don't mean they should be everywhere. Bethesda should have made them appear at night, randomly like the dragons.

Just noticed that this thread was moved to spoilers, so...I will explain how I role-play the lack of wild werewolves. I pretend the Silver Hand has all but driven the werewolves into extinction. The only remaining werewolves are the inner circle of the Companions. If you decide to cure yourself, you can even role-play that all the members cured themselves. This works because you never see any of your fellow Companions change after you become one.

That's why the Silver Hand hide in forts and not the wild...

It seems to me by the look of their forts that they are not hiding. Rather, they are hunting werewolves, bringing them back to the forts for tourture, presumably to find the location of other werewolves and to satisfy their blood lust.

Hi.

I hope they add werewolfs to the wilderness by patch or mod, but i prefer patch.

Like vampires let them have different levels so you will no get killde when your are low level and weak.



I always got my hopes up when the guards say that they heard howling the other night.

One of the loading screens also mentions how people are wary of werewolves preying on unsuspecting victims at night. It's really odd that there's no way to encounter them (except for the one in a specific quest, or those locked up by the Silver Hand, who are non-respawning).

I also find it odd that the Circle never transforms, except for two specific scripted events... even Aela who likes her lycanthropy. Would've been cool if you could randomly find her outside in beast form hunting some wild animals or nameless NPCs/bandits/whatever. Some time after joining the Companions, a guard also comments on the sounds of "dogs" coming from Jorrvaskr and asks you to keep them quiet, even though none of them are ever in beast form. I liked discovering the Underforge's rear exit, which would've played in well for the Circle: enter the Underforge from the city, change in seclusion, then leave out the back and hunt away from the city.

They are no better than the werewolves, if not more barbaric. The Silver Hand are simply evil. I am glad Bethesda made the werewolves seem good this time.

Given how many dead werewolves there are in the Silver Hand quests, I think they've been pretty successful.

Lycanthrope silver vulnerability isn't really in the game either.

I do wish the Companions wolfed out more. Farkas and Vilkas gave up their transformations, but Aela's a total furry 'vore. She should wolf out all the time, but does not. And she's Commander Ivanova. That's a bonus reason to have her as a hench.

Then again it seems like half the women in this game are Ivanova... darn you Bethesda and your recycling! At least put a pitch/timbre filter on npc lines to give them some variety! This isn't an audiobook!

The only werewolves I've run across so far were dead ones in cages and chained to walls.

I'm not big into werewolves/vampires, but seeing what I saw kinda made me feel for 'em. Slightly.

It dissapoints me greatly that I have never encountered one in the wild except for one occasion:

after hircine's ring quest... after that werewolf promised to stay in hiding... he runs outside, sees a dragon and follows him off toward the nearest city. I saw him a couple of times on the way there but have never seen him since.

Worth some research:

on youtube there is a video of someone claiming to have witnessed a random encounter with werewolves where 3 raid falkreath (I think it was falkreath). While I dont have the link, I did see the video of it happening and it didn't seem like a troll.

However they always could have spawned a few outside of town before making the video, so I dont really trust it.


I really hope that there are some werewolves in the wilderness -somewhere- or in a future dlc expanding upon werewolves (please bethesda?) but if not Ill just pick up a mod once the construction kit comes out.


Edit: Found the link

Even with the Silver Hand out hunting it would be nearly impossible for the werewolves to have been hunted to almost complete extintion, but I guess it is as good a reason as any to not have them running around. The Stendarr people have also seemed to killed off every single daedra in the world.

What's the deal with the Silver Hand anyway? They attacked my mage for no reason when I walked past their fort, Driftshade Refuge. The only interaction I've with the Companions is talking to the group killing the giant on the farm near Whiterun. That was on my first playthrough and I didn't play the Companions' questline at that point. I thought the Silver Hand was just a named bandit group involved in a Dawnstar side quest.
(I only join guilds that would make sense for the character; no mages in the Companions, no warriors in the Thieves Guild, etc)

Let's really hope Bethesda will patch in the werewolfs.

Silverhand are bandits. They attackon sight and when your hidden their dialuge is the exact sme s bandits. Bethesda just gave them all silver swords and changed thier name.

They are obviously hiding in Jorrvaskr because of all the arrows they had to take to their knees due to the Silver Hand...

I have the strategy guide, and it clearly states that the only way to become a werewolf in Skyrim is to be in the Circle AKA Companions. Either there are people who left the Circle, or people who came from Morrowind is really far-fetched. I highly doubt there are wild werewolves though.
