Renown
Source: Players Guide to the Changing Breeds pg.#169
The Nuwisha gain Renown in the categories Humor, Glory, and Cunning. They aren't a very status-conscious Changeling Breed, but even the Nuwisha see a need to honor their best - as well as a system to establish bragging rights.
Categories
GloryGlory is awarded for actions of flamboyance, especially if the Nuwisha gets away with it.... |
HumorHumor is awarded based on how skillful a werecoyote is. Humor does not cover silly behavior and bad jokes and pranks, but how well conceived a Nuwisha's actions are, what scale she is able to think on, and what the consequences are, and for whom. |
CunningCunning is awarded for craftiness; for clever and ingenious actions that are subtle and well thought out. |
