------------------------------------------------
Description
------------------------------------------------

This Mod adds a contagious form of lycanthropy to the game. It has a chance of being caught by any humans or elves damaged by either a Werewolf, Witherfang, or a Blighted Werewolf.

It also extends the duration of the Werewolf's 'Shriek' ability to be the same as the Bear's 'Enrage' ability.

Note that due to the nature of the Shapeshifting system, only the PC can currently catch it (companions shifting into the werewolf model turn into a jaggedly pixelated mess thanks to their headmorph setup).

------------------------------
Infection
------------------------------

Upon being damaged, a formula is checked. Basically it comes up with a chance of infection based on the damage dealt compared to the target's Current and Max Health, then if an infection occurs it allows a Physical Resistance check to resist it. Although the Resistance check is bypassed if the infecting attack 'kills' or nearly kills the target.

Only Elves and Humans can be infected.

------------------------------
Transformation
------------------------------

Post infection the new lycanthrope receives a passive +5 bonus to Constitution and has a chance of transforming into a berserk werewolf whenever they take damage.

The formula to force a transformation is almost identical to the formula used to check for infection. The two differences being that the Resistance check is now a Mental Resistance check and said check is bypassed if the attack brings the lycanthrope below 25% of Max Health.

This transformation applies the confuse effect to the target and cannot be reverted until at least (CharacterLevel * 6) seconds have passed.

------------------------------
Enhancements
------------------------------

A character who has transformed at least 10 times receives a passive boost of +5 to their Strength and Dexterity scores.

A character who has transformed at least 20 times receives a passive boost of +2 to their Combat Health Regeneration and +5 to their Out-of-Combat Health Regeneration.

A character who has transformed at least 30 times receives a +50% bonus to the transformation's statistic boost and is no longer confused post-transformation.

------------------------------------------------
Single Player Addon
------------------------------------------------

This alters things so that catching lycanthropy permanently is based on the OC's Nature of the Beast quest.

When you're first infected now you only receive a 'disease' effect that reduces your Stamina Regeneration rather than full lycanthropy. This lasts until you choose to either lift or not lift the curse.

- If you lift the curse the disease will be removed.
- If you do not lift the curse it will transform into full-fledged lycanthropy.
