Lycanthropes, suggestions, fixes?

[Rossebay]

So, I've got this afflicted werebear barbarian. He's level 3, so I'm using a savage progression track for him.

So... Any suggestions? I've never been a lycanthrope before.

Werebear is pretty decent. It gets you into Warshaper, gives you tons of Strength and generally beats people up. The LA is a little painful, but not as bad for you as it would be for many other characters, since your Strength makes up for the lost BAB and your Constitution is a decent substitute for HD. Make sure you have the Spirit Lion Totem Barbarian sub level from Complete Champion, and maybe the Wolf Totem from Unearthed Arcana as well.

Warblade levels would not be out of the question either.

Though Crusader might serve you a bit better, as they have more survivability.

Can we get a stat block? And perhaps a general outline of your level breakdown? We can refine it from there.

If you really don't like it I'm sure you could beg you DM for a homebrewed fix.

Or just get the lycanthropy cured.
