To remove the cursed ring, the Dragonborn must track down the White Stag and slay it. Note that transforming will remove all equipped items, including the ring, so transforming once will solve the problem of unpredictable transformations.Īfter that, Sinding escapes. While worn, it causes the wearer to transform into a Werewolf at random, even if they do not have Lycanthropy. Sinding gives the Dragonborn the Cursed Ring of Hircine, which auto-equips and cannot be removed.
Sinding (found in Falkreath Jail, under the Barracks) will tell the Dragonborn of a rare animal, the White Stag, that needs to be killed to appease Hircine, the Daedric Prince of the Hunt. No one seems quite sure how someone could commit such a horrible crime, but the culprit is currently locked away in the Falkreath Jail if the Dragonborn wants to find out. While in Falkreath, the Dragonborn may hear rumors of the savage murder of a little girl, or, alternatively, one can walk to the graveyard on the edge of town where her parents are holding a funeral and talk to them.
He's given me the ring he stole and asked me to entreat Hircine for forgiveness. I've met Sinding, a werewolf who the Daedric Lord Hircine has punished by preventing his transformations.
