Only lycanthropic forms are vulnerable to burn.
Unless otherwise noted assume for 1hp/turn regen

1. No more races.
2. Werewolf already approved for humans.

Also lycantropy itself mean "lycan=wolf and trop=human. So if anything, name Theriantrophy nakes more sense (therian=animal) and I think there could be other shapeshifters for other races( vampires also count as shapeshifters) and mythology actually count werewolves as undead but that's just detail.

Thanks for info makazuwr32.
Also valid points on the therianthropy, you've seen reading were-world novels I assume?

Novels — no.
Myths and other stories of various nations — yes.

By the way, we decider werefolf to be part of humans for some reasons

1) It is a living being, not an undead

2) the base form is human

3) humans haven't unhuman subraces so they can make use of some supernatural being (I'd like a beor-like unit too for them)

4) vampires and werewolves have a feud so they can be sworn enemies being part of 2 opposite factions

Will be part of Adventurers sub or its own sub for humans.
