Heightened Senses

Level 3 Lycan feature   Your lycanthropy heightens your primal senses. You have Advantage on Wisdom (Perception) and Wisdom (Survival) checks that rely on hearing or smell. Additionally, you have Scent with a range of 60 feet or, if you already have this sense, its range increases by 30 feet.    

Hybrid Transformation

Level 3 Lycan feature   As a Bonus Action, you can shift into a hybrid form, one between humanoid and beast. While in this form, you gain the following:
  • Feral Might. You have a +1 bonus to Melee damage rolls. This bonus increases to +2 at level 13, and +3 at level 17.
  • Tough Hide. While not wearing Heavy armor, you have a +1 bonus to your AC. Additionally, on transformation, you gain Temporary Hit Points equal to your Bloodletter level.
  • Predatory Strikes. You grow claws and fangs that count as Simple Melee weapons with the Fist and Light properties. On a hit, they deal Slashing damage equal to one roll of your Hemocraft Die + your Strength or Dexterity modifier.
You remain in this form for 1 hour, or until you either have the Unconscious condition, or return to your normal form as a Bonus Action. Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Short or Long Rest, unless you make a Vital Sacrifice to regain use of it (no action required).
