Upcoming Episodes!
Okay, I don't want to post a strict schedule because sometimes shit happens. We have a couple lost episodes, things we had to scrap because the energy was off, or there was a technical issue, or...whatever. We like the freedom to mess with the schedule as we see fit but at the same time if you guys get a heads up then you can write in and we can talk about it during the episode, which is more in line with that conversation shit i was talking about back when. So on that note, here are some topics we plan on talking about in the near future (up to and including tomorrow's session) -The Umbra (basics) -Dealing with Spirits (Both as a player and Storyteller)
-The "Lost Meta" of Werewolf Revised -Rites (For me, I'd love to hear how you guys handle the rites whose practices aren't really listed in the books) -Favorite antagonists/creating antagonists. Obviously we'll be finishing the Auspice Series, and will continue with the Tribal series. We're also looking at a series I want to call "Anatomy of a Chronicle" where we break down our games. this is a thing that's been brought up, but yeah we're seriously talking about it. I don't know WHEN that's going to start though. But that should hold for now, we'll keep you guys updated as we go and if you have ideas for episodes you want to hear, you know what to do guys. Thanks, have a good one!
the Chronicle I am runn now is set in the PNW. Currently we are at a Silver Fang only sept. That will change, as in the revised tribe book they make it clear they often lead multi tribe septs. An allied sept in cali has silver fangs leadership but is filled with Glass Walkers and Get of Fenris mostly, with a sprinkling of other tribes, including a Gurahl. There is story behind that.
the current Sept leader for my chronicles sept is looking to bring other tribes to the sept to facilitate better relationships with the tribes in the region. He does this by sending his packs to serve other septs. My vision of what septs look like is this. A Tribal caern is usually 90% one tribe. Some garou from other tribes are there but don’t have the political weight to do anything but go along. These make up about 65% of the septs. About 20% are Septs made of 2 or more tribes with 40% of those garou of the dominant tribe. Only 10% are true multi tribal septs with no real dominant tribe. Yes there is a missing 5% that I reserve to do what I like with or to reflect the shifting nature of garou society.
the PNW, as we call it is diverse in the cities and suburbs. Lots of recent immigrants from all over. The rural parts were mostly colonized by Scandinavians, Russians, and more of the Anglo-Saxon types. There are many African Americans in the bigger cities like Portland, Tacoma and Seattle, Hispanics as well. Many Hispanics work the farms in the rural regions too. So, any European tribes will work. But, Fianna , fenrir, silver fang, shadow lord and even black fury will work. Red talons have a canon caern here as well.
this is the homeland of the wendigo. Native peoples here have more autonomy than in the eastern part of the country and more so in Canada. Wendigo should feature strongly in wide reaching regional events. There are some Uktena living in the southern reaches of Washington but not many. Their province is south and East. I made a map of caerns and septs I can share if you like.
