Hello everybody, after many times trying somes builds , i wanted to create a new one. Inspired by the D&D subclass , i tried my best to translated it in the world of Skyrim, I present you:
The lycan blood hunter
Backstory
Sometimes to face a monster , you have to become one.
In a dark cave only enlightened by the torches holded by a nine encaped silouettes, the deep voice of a woman resonates:
"You ,Taliah Gatwah, member of the blood hunter, do you pledge to use the power of our Lord Hircine, to defend the innocents against the dark forces of our ennemy Molag Bal?"
One of the forms advance to the voice , slowly reavealing her face, a young and beautiful Redguard, and answer proudly :"I do"
With a smile on on her face the woman who leads this group asks
"You, Taliah Gatwah,are you ready to use the gift of Lycantropy,only to face all aspects of evil,even if that mean that you risk to be considers by the others as a monster?"
Without hesitate, Taliah answer:"Yes I am ready whatever it cost."
The leader says :"Good!, now Taliah, you will drink the blood of the beast and so rise to the rank of a lycan blood hunter"
As she gives to Taliah a bowl full of blood,the echos of the owling pack begins,giving her the courage to drink the darkish red liquid.
Taliah feels the strength flowing throuht her veins , a power greater than all the years of training gived her;she feels her muscles growing , her body changing of shape,getting taller, her senses intensifies too , she can now hear better as her eyes start to see clearly ,watching her mentor , her brothers and sisters owling together, she knews ther is no coming back but she was ready to melt with the humans , protecting them from Tamriel greatest menace: the return of the vampires.

only Salamander touch from forgotten magic this spell allow you to mimic the signature move of the D&D Blood hunter imbuig your weapon with fire
Shout
only firebreath
most important perks
1 2 handed
I choose a two handed scimitar as main weapon for a higher speed and it fits with the redguard 's vibes
2 light armor
Your greatest defense and most important with ordinator you get a sweet boost for your unarmed damage and allow you to imbue your fists with fire even in werewolf form
3 archery
I take a simple crossbow for ranged attack when firebreath is not enought
4 destruction
To increase your only magical attack cost
5 smithing
I choose to improve my weapon at the higher level and after the armor pieces
optional
block and speech
Gameplay
In combat i choose to strike the ranged ennemy first with firebreath or the crossbow.
After i cast the salamander touch wich is very efficient for against melee foes imbuing my scimitar with fire and getting a flame cloak for them.
Werewolf form is used mostly against bandits and travel faster , the woe of the bloodhunter is to not kill innocents with this powers
Closing note
I really enjoyed playing this character , she was able to make a lot of damage without beeing overpowered. I also liked the versability of the fight in human or werewolf form , she was able to adapt whoever stand against her and my gosh it was very fun to beat a dragon as with your bare claws
