From publisher blurb:
One of the most ancient and feared of all curses, lycanthropy will transform the most civilized into a ravening beast. A monk who follows the Way of the Werebear is cursed with lycanthropy. Whether the werebear’s curse was inherited from their parents or passed on after suffering an injury from another lycanthrope, the monk has learned to control their affliction. Those with lycanthropy often describe it as feeling like you share a portion of yourself with another entity that can influence your thoughts. By altering their spirit to resonate with this curse, and with the help of moon tea, monks who follow this tradition augment their skill in combat by transforming into a werebear. Only those with the utmost disciple can harness the ferocity of the beast within.
