Shadowheart Werewolf, created by Lord_President, is a Baldur's Gate 3 mod that reimagines Shadowheart as a werewolf with a fully playable transformation. Based on the idea that her fear of wolves hides a deeper secret, the mod introduces a new combat-oriented form with its own set of abilities, offering a different way to play the character.

Lore-inspired character transformation

The mod is designed exclusively for Shadowheart, allowing her to transform into a werewolf during combat. In her normal form, she can Speak with Animals and activate the transformation. Once transformed, her standard abilities are replaced with a new set of werewolf-exclusive skills, creating a distinct combat style while leaving her story and dialogue unchanged.

Level-scaling werewolf abilities

The werewolf form introduces a wide range of abilities that grow stronger as Shadowheart levels up. She gains attacks such as Werewolf Bite, Werewolf Claw, and Werewolf Leap, along with Werewolf Howl, which can frighten nearby enemies and summon wolf companions based on her level. The form also grants stealth, regeneration, increased movement and jump distance, resistance to non-magical physical damage, temporary stat boosts, and the ability to inflict or remove lycanthropy.

These abilities turn Shadowheart into a more aggressive, melee-oriented fighter, offering an alternative to her usual playstyle. Players can freely switch between human and werewolf forms throughout their adventure, making it easy to adapt her abilities as battles unfold.

A new way to play Shadowheart

Shadowheart Werewolf gives Shadowheart a distinctive combat identity through a fully playable werewolf transformation. While the mod is limited to a single character, it offers a fresh gameplay option for players who regularly include Shadowheart in their party and want to customize her beyond her default role.
