Bastet Jamak

Jamak

Bastet are solo operators as a rule. Group totems are downright rare among the werecats (with the exception of Simba prides). However, it is very common for Bastet to engage in personal totemic pacts with powerful spirits. Bastet call these patrons "Jamak." Whereas Garou tend to revere archetypes, Jamak tend to be more individualized aspects of a totem.

The following Garou totems are especially appropriate Jamak, if only in a derivative form. For instance, a Bastet Raven Jamak might be Ragpicker, a tricky thief who nonetheless knows many secrets. Many of them are quite expensive and thus unable to be bought with starting background points, unless a rare pack of Bastet pool their background dots.
