Shapechanger. The weretiger can use its
action to polymorph into a tiger-humanoid
hybrid or into a tiger, or back into its true
form, which is humanoid. Its statistics, other
than its size, 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.
Keen Hearing and Smell. The weretiger has
advantage on Wisdom (Perception) checks
that rely on hearing or smell.
Pounce (Tiger or Hybrid Form Only). If the
weretiger moves at least 15 feet straight
toward a creature and then hits it with a claw
attack on the same turn, that target must
succeed on a DC 14 Strength saving throw
or be knocked prone. If the target is prone,
the weretiger can make one bite attack
against it as a bonus action.
Actions
Multiattack (Humanoid or Hybrid Form
Only). In humanoid form, the weretiger
makes two scimitar attacks or two longbow
attacks. In hybrid form, it can attack like a
humanoid or make two claw attacks.
Bite (Tiger or Hybrid Form Only). Melee
Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one
target. Hit: 8 (1d10 + 3) piercing damage. If
the target is a humanoid, it must succeed on
a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be
cursed with weretiger lycanthropy.
Claw (Tiger or Hybrid Form Only). Melee
Weapon Attack: +5 to hit, reach 5 ft., one
target. Hit: 7 (1d8 + 3) slashing damage.
Scimitar (Humanoid or Hybrid Form Only).

one target. Hit: 6 (1d6 + 3) slashing damage.

lycanthrope

Check out Matt Mercer's "Blood Hunter"
class. Order of the Lycan kicks in at level
3. It plays more like a Witcher than a
traditional werebeast, but looks
interesting. I suppose it's up to the DM if
you start at level one as a lycanthrope. Only
problem is that it's time-limited, so you
can't be a weretiger the whole time.
You could take the Shifter race and adopt
this form, negotiating the way it works in-
game with the DM.

I am currently playing a Bloodhunter Order
of the Lyncan, and it is similar to a one hour
barbarian rage feature with a bonus to AC.
You can only use it once per short rest,
(and there is a chance that you go full
bloodlust werewolf) but that is usually
enough to pull off most dungeon crawls at
this level.

they become human during a full moon
LOL

I mean for DnD werecreatures the moon
doesn't affect them much, it might make
them more "jumpy" but that's it

Multiple years ago, I saw a Dragon
Magazine article about Lycanthrope and it
being an actual class. Is that over now?
I played a Monk of Kelemvor and was a
Were-Tiger. He embraced the 'curse' and
used to change into Hybrid form for the
bigger \ghts. Is this playable again? DO I
have to multiclass? I'm just getting back
into D&D after many years... I could use the
help. Thanks

Shifters are not quite lycanthropes though,
they're watered down a little. They take on
more bestial traits, but they themselves are
not losing control due to a curse.

In my campaign there is a non-player
character who's a Weretiger, he's a retired
warrior, and currently is a grumpy tavern
keeper.

Anyone looking to play a lycanthrope id
recommended van richtens treatise on
lycanthropy, on dm's guild

I dont see why that couldn't be some really
funny curse. The party meets a human
begging for a cure for some horrible
ailment, after getting Remove Cursed it
turns out he was an elf the whole time.
