Lycanthrope

Big Guys:
The Lycanthrope team may not have any Big Guy players.

New skills:
Bear Hug: Instead of making a block, a player with Bear Hug can choose to crush his opponent within his powerful arms. Both coaches should roll a D6 and add their player's strength (counting assists). If the attacking player rolls higher than his opponent, make an armour and injury roll for the defending player as normal (no modifiers allowed to these rolls). If the Bear Hug player fails to break the armour of the opponent, nothing happens. If the armour roll is successful and a Stunned result is rolled for the injury, the opponent is placed stunned in the square they were in (ie no push back). If the defending player is removed from the field due to injury, the attacking player may not follow-up. Bear Hugs may not be used if the player has moved (ie not as part of blitz action).
PBeM rule change: Instead of both coaches rolling a D6, the coach with Bear Hug will succeed with using this skill if he rolls equal to or greater than (4 + opposing player's Strength stat + # of defensive assists - Bear Hug player's Strength stat - # of offensive assists).

New traits:
Outrage: Outrage works exactly the same as Frenzy EXCEPT if this player is activated and begins his action standing (ie not prone) next to an opponent then he MUST block or blitz that opponent.

Were: After setting up and placing the ball forkick-off, roll a D6 for this player if he is on the pitch. On a 5 or 6, he has managed to change to his Were form with those stats and skills in ( ). On a 1-4, he will be human for this drive. At the end of each drive/half, this player returns to Human stats/skills.

Advance:
On doubles, Lycanthropes can gain Claws or Regeneration (usable in both human and were forms)

If a Werewolf takes Break Tackle on a normal skill roll, his Were form gains the Dodge skill.
Similarly a Werecat that takes Dodge on a normal skill roll, her were form gains the Break Tackle skill.

Any other skills, traits, or stat increases overwise earned from star player rolls are available normally in both forms.

On Pitch Spellcaster:
A Lycanthrope spellcaster starts with the spell, Taming the Beast.
Successful Result: A player in human form is changed to his Were form immediately. In addition that player does not have the Outrage trait for this drive only. This spell lasts until the next Kick-off.
Failure Result: The player in human form is still changed to his Were form but instead of Outrage, the player gains the Wild Animal trait until the next Kick-off.
Range: Any player in human form on the pitch
Succeeds on: 2+

Secret Weapons:
The Lycanthrope team may not use secret weapons.

Stadium:
Lycanthrope stadiums are bathed by magically harnessed moonlight even during the daytime. After long term exposure to this, the were change is easier for a player. For Lycanthrope Stadium home game, after both teams have been setup at the start of the second half, but before kickoff, roll a D6. On a 6, a random D6 were-players on the field in human form are converted to wereform immediately.

Racial Wizard: (Note: the MBBL does not use racial Wizards)
