The jackalwere is a malign foe of humankind, a jackal able to assurne the form of a man.
In this guise they roam about seeking to waylay and murder humans.
They then steal their riches and eat the slain victims.
The jackalwere can USE human-weapons.

Its gaze will have the effect of a sleep spell on any unsuspecting creature which fails its save vs. Magic.
Note: a hostile creature is not unsuspecting!
Jackalwere will sometimes (20%) be found with normal jackals.
