Night Howlers

Review:  Night Howlers.  (PC4) By Ann Dupuis.  Published in 1992.

Night Howlers is the fourth and final installment in the Creature Crucible series.  It is about playing were-creatures in the Mystara (Known D&D World) setting.  It provides a location for the adventures (part of a principality in Glantri) but has suggestions for adventures in other locations.

From a construction standpoint.  It is a very solid, well-written product.  It provides rules mechanics and story ideas.  It has suggestions for different kinds of were-creature campaigns from ones that are like Ravenloft to ones that are far sillier.

I am not sure how sustainable a were-creature campaign is but it probably would make for interesting change of pace.  If you are looking to run a D&D werewolves-as-players campaign, this would be an excellent resource.

4 out of 5 stars
