Werewolf
Beware of the full moon!
Are you a capable video-maker? Werewolf needs an updated instruction video!
I am looking for someone interested in making the official tutorial video for the Werewolf plugin. Please contact me if interested.
Want to contribute? Werewolf is open source!

Rules
To become a Werewolf, you have to get bitten (attacked) by a wolf or Werewolf at night and contract the Werewolf infection. This infection will turn the player into a Werewolf every night, starting the next night, if the player is under a open sky. To prevent turning, the player can stay inside during night.
- When in wolf-form, character skin changes to a Werewolf skin (Only visible to other players)
- When in wolf-form, players will become identifiable only as "Werewolf" in the playerlist and chat (Adding a element of mystery)
- When in wolf-form, werewolves speak in a language which appears as growling noises to normal players.
- A Werewolf automatically turns into his Wolf-form during a full moon, when under a open sky.
- A Werewolf automatically turns into his Human-form at dawn.
- A Werewolf only eats meat!
- A Werewolf gains health from killing mobs (Hunting)
- A Werewolf does high unarmed damage
- A Werewolf moves faster
- A Werewolf jumps higher
- A Werewolf has night vision.
- A Werewolf cannot wield Armor while in Wolf-form, but has a high natural defense
- A Werewolf can growl with /growl
- A Werewolf can howl with /howl
- Vampires cannot be infected with the Werewolf infection
- When a Werewolf gets killed, the player re-spawns in human form.
- Werewolves are very vulnerable to silver weapons.
- Werewolves are flock creatures and live in clans
- Werewolves are the natural leaders of wild wolves
- The Werewolf infection can be cured by drinking the werewolf cure potion
The Werewolf Clans
There are 3 Werewolf clans, each with their own skin and ability.
A werewolf will spread the infection from his own clan.
Any other infection method will result in a random clan.
Clan Name | Appearance | Clan Skill |
---|---|---|
The Silvermanes | Grey wolf | Speed 2, Damage 3 |
The Bloodmoons | Black wolf | Speed 2, Regeneration 3 |
The Witherfangs | Comic Wolf | Speed 4, Jump 4 |
A clan member can view the ranked clan member list with the /ww list command.
The three werewolf clans get points for hunting other creatures while in Werewolf form.
Slaying werewolves from another clan, and especially the another clan's alpha, earns bonus points for the clan.
Clan Alpha
The Clan alpha is the natural leader of the clan.
The Clan alpha is selected as the most "senior" of the werewolves in the clan, when the clan has lost its old Alpha.
Ways of losing the alpha are:
- The alpha werewolf was slain by another clan member
- The alpha werewolf has not transformed for some days and is therefore auto-cured (See the auto-cure setting)
- The alpha werewolf has cured himself by drinking the cure potion
Alpha abilities are:
- /howl ability has a stunning effect on all living creatures nearby
- Double amount of damage
- Half the amount of damage taken
Werewolf Maturity
As a werewolf, you gradually mature and gain more control over your condition depending on how many full moon transformations you have experienced:
Number of tranformations | Maturity |
---|---|
3 | You no longer drop clothes and items when transforming |
5 | You can now transform at will with the /werewolf transform command |
10 | Gold items no longer causes extra damage on you |
Hunting werewolves
At any time, a bounty is being kept for the killing of a Werewolf.
Players can check the current bounty with /werewolf bounty and add to this bounty themselves by using /werewolf addbounty <amount>. A player can put himself into "werewolf hunting mode" by using /werewolf hunt. This helps him find the nearest werewolf simply using the compass. The player can disable "werewolf hunting mode" by using /werewolf hunt again.
The Werewolf bounty will be paid out to the first player to slay a Werewolf. Players can check the top 10 werewolf hunters with /werewolf top
NOTE: Werewolf hunting requires Vault to be installed.
Werewolf Infection Potions
A player can drink the Werewolf potion to infect himself with the Werewolf infection.
Note that drinking the infection potion must be done during a full moon!
Admins can use the /ww infectionpotion command to hand out infection potions to players
Curing werewolves
A Werewolf player can drink the Werewolf cure potion to cure himself from being a Werewolf.
Note that the player can only drink the cure while in HUMAN form. (Werewolf paws do not play well with bottles).
Admins can use the /ww curepotion command to hand out infection potions to players
Wolfbane Potion
A Werewolf hunter can choose to make use of the "Wolfbane" splash potion.
This potion is brewed from silver essence and is the nightmare of any Werewolf.
On hitting a werewolf, the potion has a 25% chance of un-transforming the werewolf for the duration of the night in addition to dealing poison damage.
Lore books
Finding it hard to get players to understand all the features and rules of this plugin?
No problem, just hand out (or get players to buy) werewolf lorebooks where players can read all about the werewolf lore.
Crafting potions, swords & books
Infection Potion
Cure Potion
Silver Sword
Lore Book
Signs for selling potions, swords & books
Admins or players with the correct permission nodes can place signs for selling Werewolf infection potions, Werewolf cure potions and Werewolf lore books.
Players can use these signs by simply right-clicking the sign to buy a potion or book.
NOTE: When using Vault, the selling prices from the config.yml is used. Without vault, all these signs will give away potions for free.
To use signs, first make sure signs are enabled in the config and place signs with the following lines:
Werewolf infection potion sign
- Werewolf
- Infection
Werewolf cure potion sign
- Werewolf
- Cure
Werewolf wolfbane potion sign
- Werewolf
- Wolfbane
Werewolf silver sword sign
- Werewolf
- Sword
Werewolf lore book sign
- Werewolf
- LoreBook
Werewolf trophies
Slaying a werewolf is quite an accomplishment.
After successfully slaying a werewolf with a any type of sword, the werewolf head is cut off and can be kept by the player as a trophy!

Do you want to support this Plugin?
Buy the developer a beer! Beer makes coding faster
Very nice plugin.
I will most likely use this in my RPG world.
Will you later also add more creatures than just a werewolf?
creatures like vampires, demons?
Awesome, Thanks!
How I Make A Warewolf :P There is any command .S
you need add links at the right of you page!
I use to use the 1.4 version (or whatever version it was) It was very laggy. I hope it wont be as laggy as before :D
This plugin sounds amazing! Unfortunately I'm about to reset my server with a heap of new plugins I haven't messed with before so I can't test it just now but I will definately keep an eye on this one! And the no-spout attitude is a welcome change also! Keep up the great work.
If I could make a suggestion it would just be to make sure as much of this is configurable as possible.
A spoutless werewolf plugin is a very ambitious, and welcome plugin. Spout is crap.
It's laggy, has very little support, and is really cumbersome. Glad to see an alpha. I'll get to testing it, and report anything I find.
Might want to also look at Vampires, and make a small compatibility level there, so you won't be able to contract BOTH diseases.
Just released the first alpha version!
My focus is to provide as many features as possible without spout or any other plugin. That means that there is quite abit of hacking going on in order to change the skin etc :P
hay could u post the download link???
pleas finnish this, i can't code but if i could this would be the first mod/plugin i would make for MC
I created an account and downloaded spout JUST FOR THIS PLUGIN!
I must say this sounds VERY promissing, and I can't wait to try it out!
andastand,thanks i wait to normal
sasha calm down let him work on it? If you want it to be hurried make your own werewolf plugin and dont rush this guy
comeon comeon i can't wait can you do speed up
Me and my friends can't wait till this comes out its deffenitly going to put a larger and funner twist in to our server.
I love the ideas every one is listing but I have one that I didn't see listed
wolves bain have there be an enchantment and a herb (nether wart would probably be a good item to use for this)that repells werewolfs or temporarily stops turns them back into a human
also you should have the infection work with the villager NPCs or add a werewolf mob that only comesout at night or looks like a human or something in the day
Hrm, I've got a couple ideas! Due to spoutcraft not being worldwide and some users cannot download it, Maybe it could broadcast something when the werewolf turns? Another idea. Werewolf hunting, You get rewards for killing the Werewolf :o? Another idea. What if there was a specific item or key that makes the wolf howl and make a large amount of angry wolfs that are friendlies to the wolf spawn :P?
When are you planning the release this?
I can't wait till this is out!?!??!?! It's gonna be epic im sure!
Sounds promising. Look forward to trying this out.
Is it compatible with Heroes?
I'm so glad someone took up the development of this plugin. It also looks like it's basically the same as the old plugin, with all the spout extras. Cheers to you for resurrecting it, can't wait to test it out.
