shifters are descended from lycanthropes, but [shifters believe] their abilities are a gift from Eberron or Lamannia, but… was corrupted by the daelkyr to create the curse of lycanthropy.
Whatever the [case], in the ninth century YK, the power of the curse surged…, and all lycanthropes were drawn toward evil. The Church of the Silver Flame engaged in a long crusade… all but eradicating lycanthropy from the Five Nations. The lycanthropes that survived hid in dark places, deep within the woods of the Eldeen Reaches and Droaam.
The common people of Khorvaire… don't understand that good-aligned lycanthropes exist.
