Songamdir is Hircine's werewolf Packmaster who considers himself as much wolf as man, and has been granted the power to control his transformations, so that he can enter a true wolf form, as well as that of a werewolf.
If the player received their lycanthropy from a specific type of werewolf NPC, he will first be encountered at the various Werewolf Ritual Sites located in Bangkorai
, Reaper's March
, or the Rift
. He can also be found in the Hunting Grounds, where guides newly infected lycanthropes toward Hircine, in order to unlock their true power.

Quest-Related EventsEdit
After being noticed by Thoreki while with a city, she will send you to seek out Songamdir. Once you have tracked him down at a Werewolf Ritual Site, he will be accompanied by his Pack Wolves. He will then tell you the following:
- "Well, what have we here? A poor lost pup, looking for a pack? Heh. You want to run with wolves, you got to learn a few things first."
- Are you the packmaster?
- "The same. Long before you were wailing in your momma's arms, Hircine gave me the keeping of his pack and all the power that goes with it.
I show pups like you how to make the most of his gift. I'm like a flea-bitten, shirtless priest of Hircine!" - You sound a little crazy.
- "You want to be a werewolf? Maybe you're a little crazy yourself.
This portal will take you to Hircine's own hunting ground. If you're ready to hunt and kill and feed with your pack, then step through. I'll see you on the other side." - I thought you were just another wolf when I first arrived.
- "Hircine gave me power beyond other werewolves when he chose me for his Packmaster. I can control my form, and I am as much a wolf as I am a man."
You may talk to him again and he will begin the conversation with:
- "You have the stink of something unnatural on you. Something wrong. It'll take something extra to initiate you into our brotherhood."
If you got your lycanthropy from another player, you will instead first meet Songamdir after you enter the portal. Regardless, once inside the Hunting Grounds, he will speak of what you need to do as he walks towards the shrine:
- Songamdir: "The ritual you will undergo is as old and ancient as the stars."
- Songamdir: "The Father of Manbeasts demands tribute, as do I. I am his Packmaster."
- Songamdir: "Kneel at the altar of our master. Listen to his words."
After Hircine commands you to hunt down a kill, you can ask Songamdir for a refresher. He can greet you in two ways:
- "Don't drag your feet. The slow hunter never catches his prey, and I can't keep this gateway open forever."
- What do I need to do again?
- "Hircine demands tribute. Hircine demands meat.
Bring down the largest beast you can kill, then howl to your brothers and sisters. We will feed on the prey together. If Hircine accepts your tribute, you are one of us."
After the finished hunt:
- "Do you feel the power? Can you taste it?"
If you speak with him after being fully initiated, he will welcome you to the pack.
- "With each new wolf, our pack becomes stronger. You're one of us now."
NotesEdit
- Hircine was previously stated to have his own pack of werewolves on page 244 of The Infernal City.
