 ===the Secret===
 Urtos III is erroneously assumed to be long dead, but he inherited unnatural longevity from his lycanthrope ancestors. He spent many years investigating lycanthropy, believing that, after learning his father's fate, it may also be his.
+Urtos III is unaware that his father yet lives. In the guise of Count Strahd of Barovia.
+===The amulet===
 Using hired alchemy and magic, Urtos sought "a cure" from local sorcerers, druids, ad charlatans, eventually ending up with a single dose of a blood elixir housed in a pewter amulet. Supposedly, the elixer would cure lycanthropy. In reality, it does this by effectively blocking ALL shapeshifting.
+Urtos sensed that the potion may not work as intended and has been avoiding consuming it. Instead he became more and more reclusive, sleeping for weeks at a time and rarely feeding, eventually growing quite week. He is currently strong enough only to flee as a bat or rat but will feed and return for revenge if disturbed.

 The elixer is intended to cure lycanthropy. It does this by effectively blocking ALL shapeshifting. After drinking the elixer, the character immediately returns to their normal form and PERMANENTLY immune to shapeshifting, polymorph, etc.
 This permanent effect can be removed by simultaneously casting Cure Disease + True Polymorph on the character.
