I heard some people in Winterhold talking about werewolves you could start there.
And you can avoid the Companion ritual and still get quests from them, but I don't think you can advance in their main questline, just get odd jobs and the like.
But I wonder how that would work, already being a werewolf and then going to them. Do tell me if and when you do it.
I do want to be in the Companions, but first I'd like to actually become a werewolf and also complete the rebellion questline.
That's a good lead, I'll start there. To Winterhold!
Also, I don't think it's ever not snowing in Windhelm.
No dice in Winterhold. Guess I'll do the ritual unless I chance upon some werewolves.
