Traits

Keen Hearing and Smell

The werewolf has advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks that rely on hearing or smell.

Shapechanger

The werewolf can use its action to polymorph into a wolf-humanoid hybrid or into a wolf, or back into its true form, which is humanoid. Its statistics, other than its AC, are the same in each form. Any equipment it is wearing or carrying isn't transformed. It reverts to its true form if it dies.

The werewolf makes two attacks: one with its bite and one with its claws or spear.
