The Black Spirals greatly respect Cunning. It is a mark of understanding. It represents wisdom about Garou and homid nature. Those that are cunning are to be feared and respected. They may not be as powerful as some, but they effectively use what they have through surprise and trickery. The Black Spirals even apply this Renown when used against themselves, although the one seeking Renown had better succeed or he will instead be scorned (loss of Renown). | The Black Spirals greatly respect Cunning.

Power
The Black Spirals respect those who possess power. They see power as a necessary tool. It's not evil or good, it's a tool. Black Spirals respect a skilled master of power: one who is not afraid, who tries to gain as much power as possible, and one who's effective in the service of his chosen cause, namely the Wyrm (though it could be the pack, Hive, or Pentex). Power is more than brute force, for it represents the limitations of the individual. Renown in Power is ultimately illusory. Power Renown is based more on others' perceptions of an individual's power than said individual's actual power. it must be noted, however, that it's very hard to gain Power Renown among the Black Spirals for long without being able to back it up. |
Infamy
The Black Spirals represent the force of Corruption and they respect it. They believe corruption goes hand in hand with strength. It's the tester and toughener of power. All who possess power, to whatever degree, are tested through corruption. The weak fail, at the cost of their power. The degree to which a Black Spiral has managed to spread corruption and destruction is marked by her Infamy Renown. |
Cunning
The Black Spirals greatly respect Cunning. It is a mark of understanding. It represents wisdom about Garou and homid nature. Those that are cunning are to be feared and respected. They may not be as powerful as some, but they effectively use what they have through surprise and trickery. The Black Spirals even apply this Renown when used against themselves, although the one seeking Renown had better succeed or he will instead be scorned (loss of Renown). |
